Ya definitely get some strong Loctite on that thing.

me too! i've had to place the boats on the side farther up to let the boat actually get out of the water lol the boats on the side never would come up out of the water, i gave that that thing almost full thottle and it went 10-15mph wile basically being half submarine! it was a very good, pricy, nice sounding, moving waterworks show!

the water was actually only about half as deep as my wet paints showed, it's that the sand at the bottom would sink about a foot when i stepted on it lol

I should still be able to get some more speed out of it. the boats on the side are still a little low making a ton of drag!

If i go slow, yes. they are still too low! they also have a very blunt front end slowing it way down! I just moved them up a little more and will retest when the rain leaves

Tested it yesterday. couldn't get any video becouse the drivetrain gave out before i got to record any. bad thing was that it happened at full speed and the whole boat dove underwater. but it held up to the plung well! it went from about 30mph to 5 in about half a second.

this is what broke:

That's a whole squadron of boats, not just 1! Nice work man, and stop deleting your videos.


Get me back into RC!
