    What to do if my ProBoat ZELOS 48G will not bind?
    • J
      Joshua GeorgeAug 20, 2025
      If your ProBoat Toy won't bind, it could be due to several reasons. First, move the powered transmitter a few feet away from the boat and disconnect, then reconnect the battery to the boat. Also, ensure that neither the boat nor the transmitter is near any large metal objects, wireless sources, or other transmitters; move them to another location and try binding again. Replace or recharge the batteries if the receiver or transmitter battery charge is too low. Finally, make sure the receiver switch is powered on.

    Why does my ProBoat ZELOS 48G engine start and then stall?
    • T
      Terry ParkerAug 25, 2025
      If your ProBoat Toy engine starts and then stalls, it might be due to several reasons. The engine may be overheated, so let it cool down and reset the carburetor to factory settings before restarting. If the engine idle is too low, follow the instructions to increase the idle speed. If the clutch is slipping or locked-up, repair or replace it. If the throttle servo is improperly set up, set the servo to neutral and reset the linkage according to the radio and model manufacturer’s specifications. If the fuel mixture is old or bad, mix fresh fuel per instructions. Finally, if the clutch or flex shaft cannot turn, repair or replace the damaged parts.
