Look like waterproof new version of this one below.
tested already but the receiver is not very consistend…hope it improved…
And the use of this thumb throttle is not very comfortable/ good to adjust… I prefer finger controlled… However good that waterproof remotes are coming. Confident there are more soon to come
Just tried mine and it worked fine for the first couple of times under water but then stopped working. I have since dried it out and it seems to be working again but I would not trust it. I was using it in salt water might be better in fresh water.
I pulled it to bits and it uses hall sensors for the switch and speed control. The circuit board is coated with some type of plastic which I assume is the waterproofing. Not sure why mine stopped but will try and redcoat the electronics as well to improve the water resistance.
The problem seems to be where the wires are connected to the battery there is no resin on them I have coated then]m with resin and will see how this goes.
Great to hear that, i also ordered one and just received it.
I miss the possibilty of a reverse action of the drive. I need this to be able to stop my surfboard after falling.
In wind and wave conditions its the only way to reach it, tested this several times.
Has someone fotos of the inside and the components? Can i destroy anything when opening it?
Maybe i can design my own real waterproof housing around these hall sensors.
What purpose has the visible potentiometer screw?
Be careful with the throttle spring as I nearly lost mine when it sprung of. It also needs coating as it is only zinc plated and is showing signs of rust after only one use.
Just tested mine again worked much better after coating battery terminals. Only issue now is when it is full of seawater the motor starts up but only turns at a slow rpm so didn’t take off. This stopped when water emptied out of remote. The water must be interfering with the hall sensor and magnet somehow. Will reset throttle positions to avoid this next time.
Just got this remote. Hooked it up and it worked like a charm. But I’m afraid of signal issues. Is there a way to boost the signal so it can transmit through the board material?
