  If your ProBoat Boat won't connect to the transmitter after binding, ensure the transmitter isn't too close to the boat. Move the powered transmitter a few feet away, then disconnect and reconnect the battery to the boat. Also, check for interference from large metal objects, wireless sources, or other transmitters and relocate the boat and transmitter if necessary. Finally, ensure that both the boat and transmitter batteries are adequately charged, replacing or recharging them if needed, and confirm that the ESC switch is powered on.

  If your ProBoat Boat won't bind to another transmitter, the transmitter may be too close to the boat during the binding process. Move the powered transmitter a few feet away from the boat, then disconnect and reconnect the battery to the boat. Additionally, the boat or transmitter may be too close to a large metal object, wireless source, or another compatible transmitter; move them to another location and try binding again. Also, check if the boat or transmitter battery charge is too low and replace or recharge the batteries. Lastly, ensure that the ESC switch is powered on.

Why ProBoat Impulse 31 PRB08008 tends to turn one direction?
- K
  Kimberly WilsonSep 12, 2025
  If your ProBoat Boat tends to turn in one direction, the rudder or rudder trim may not be centered. Repair the rudder or adjust the rudder and rudder trim for straight running when the control is at neutral. Another possible cause is an incorrect fin angle, so adjust the fin angle with the tip above the drive strut centerline.
