  If your Horizon Hobby Toy boat is not connecting to the transmitter after binding, ensure the transmitter is not too close to the boat. Move the transmitter a few feet away, disconnect and reconnect the boat's battery. Also, check for interference from large metal objects, wireless sources, or other transmitters; move the boat and transmitter to a different location. Finally, ensure both the boat and transmitter batteries are adequately charged, and the ESC switch is powered on. Recharge or replace batteries as needed, and turn on the ESC switch.

  If your Horizon Hobby Toy boat is not binding to the transmitter, move the transmitter a few feet away from the boat, disconnect and reconnect the battery to the boat. Ensure that there are no large metal objects, wireless sources, or other transmitters nearby causing interference. Power off any other compatible transmitters in the area. Check and replace or recharge the batteries in both the boat and the transmitter if they are low. Finally, make sure the ESC switch is powered on.

Why is the rudder not moving on my Horizon Hobby Toy boat?
- A
  Andrew GriffinAug 22, 2025
  If your Horizon Hobby Toy's rudder isn't moving, the rudder, linkage, or servo might be damaged, so replace or repair any broken parts and adjust the controls. Check the steering servo wires and connections for damage or looseness, connecting or replacing them as needed. Also, the transmitter might not be bound correctly, so try re-binding it. A damaged BEC (Battery Elimination Circuit) of the ESC could also be the culprit, requiring ESC replacement. Finally, ensure the ESC switch is powered on.

What to do if my Horizon Hobby Toy boat tends to dive in the water or takes on water?

  If your Horizon Hobby Toy boat tends to dive or takes on water, dry out the boat and ensure the hatch is fully closed on the hull before returning it to the water. If the center of gravity is too far forward, move the batteries back in the hull. If the trim tabs are angled incorrectly, adjust each trim tab up a small amount to lift the bow or down a small amount to lower the bow.

Why does my Horizon Hobby PRO BOAT Recoil 2 Toy boat tend to turn in one direction?
- J
  Jessica ClineAug 31, 2025
  If your Horizon Hobby Toy boat only turns in one direction, it may be that the rudder or rudder trim is not centered. Repair the rudder or adjust the rudder and rudder trim for straight running when the control is at neutral. If the vertical fins are angled incorrectly, adjust the right or left fin angle for straight running when the control is at neutral.
