    You guys are awesome! I'm currently saving up for the Pro Boat StealthWake 23. Pro Boat products look to be top notch and from what I've seen on CZcams the StealthWake would make a great boat to start out on.

    Please help. Do I need a special ESC to operate the drive motor and the pump motor that my boat has. They need to operate independently. The original esc burned up and it's discontinued.

    Waterproof the receiver and the steering servo. Use grease on the servo spline. Use silicon around the screws and case of the servo. Silicon around the receiver case and cover all the plugs. Assume water will get into your boat.

    I just wanted to let you guys know that I’m having trouble sealing up my pro boat stealthwake and I have no clue where the water is coming in either from the canopy or the flex shaft bushing. Cause the first time I ran it there was no water getting inside the boat, but through the past 2 months there is about 2 1/2 cups of water inside my boat and I noticed that is not normal. LET ME KNOW IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY ADVICE OR TIPS THAT I CAN USE!!!

    I just want to play and live in Japan where my beach is saltwater. Wind, waves and tides change. I'd like an electric boat over 70cm and less than $300 less battery that can handle minor chop and wind. Your recommendation is appreciated. Thank you.

    1. how do you get the water out of the cooling lines 2. do you need to oil an electric motor/ bearing (in a Zelos)

    • @nicholasadams9954
      @nicholasadams9954 Před 4 lety +1

      Alistair Grayling yes, if water got inside the hull it would be smart to just put a drop or two of your preferred lubrication. Preventative maintenance is everything sir 👍🏽 and for the water in the cooling lines just blow out with your mouth or use an air compressor

    Hi I have a proboat black jack 24 and I keep snapping the flex shaft; do you no what the problem could be

    • @trentonbriones2381
      @trentonbriones2381 Před 2 lety

      How often do you lube your flex shaft? Do you slam on the throttle? What prop are you running?

  • @stephonjosiah5131

    I'm a first-time RC boat user. It is okay for the motor to smell a little burnt after usage?

      @Speedoutrc Před 2 lety +1

      Yes as long as it actually doesn’t burn

    First rule: Dont buy your boat from Horizon Hobbies. The React is trash complete waste of money
