Overview
With speeds normally reserved for nitro boats and the simplicity of brushless electric power, the Miss Elam Brushless RTR brings a whole new level of ease to the RTR segment. Pro Boat’s powerful brushless electric motor propels the Miss Elam BL to speeds that rival the record-holding full-size boat, and Pro Boat’s unique magnetic hatch allows quick and easy access to the electronics while protecting them from the elements. The authentic hydro hull is handcrafted from fiberglass and utilizes an offset rudder that provides precise, predictable handling.
Completely ready-to-run with water-cooled brushless motor, programmable electronic speed control and radio system installed, the Miss Elam Brushless is an incredibly detailed and realistic boat that takes radio control excitement to the next level.
The Miss Elam is built under license from Ellstrom Manufacturing.

Needed to Complete
• 8 AA alkaline batteries for the radio transmitter• 7.2V Ni-MH Battery Pack with Deans connector (PRB3313 or PRB3314) (2)
• Twin Peak Dual Battery Charger (DYN4033)
• Tamiya/Deans adapter (PRB3312)
Tech Notes
Due to the high current rates associated with brushless electric boats, ProBoat recommends using batteries with an ability to discharge at a minimum of 25 amps (25C). The DYN5360D (Li-Po) or PRB3313 or PRB3314 (Ni-MH) are good choices with matched cells and quality chemistries.
Lower quality batteries cannot maintain a high enough average voltage to keep the electronic speed control from entering the low voltage cutoff mode. This safety feature protects the batteries and ESC from damage.
A programming module (PRB3311) is required to change the programming of your speed control in order to use Li-Po Batteries.
The ESC in your Miss Elam Brushless is preprogrammed from the factory. The programming is set for Ni-MH batteries as shipped with your Miss Elam.
The programming module (PRB3311) is available separately to change the programming of your speed control. Settings include Ni-MH or Li-Po batteries, cutoff voltage settings, cutoff type, brake on or off, motor timing and throttle curve. Caution: It is imperative that you do not attempt to use Li-Po batteries in the Miss Elam Brushless unless it has been properly programmed or serious damage to the batteries and electronics may occur.
