    does marijuana still grow wildly there?

    they were running from 60mph (100 kph) the 10S sport hydro, to about 75mph (125kph) for 10S rigger. This was 2 years ago. Today the scale hydro runs a touch over 120kph, 4S riggers a little faster the 6S riggers run 135 and a 10S rigger would be hitting over 140+kph on the oval;

    About how fast were they going?

  4. john123789able says:

    very good i like the race vid nice job

  5. fastelectrics says:

    No for any sort of boat but especially RC. A model must be 100% water proof and you still need to remove the shaft and lube any metal parts to prevent them jamming. You also need to ensureit is aired well and the electronics are protected from salt and any moisture.

    Can you drive brushless boats in the sea, then hose it off?

  7. fastelectrics says:

    google proboat and when you go to their site you can see the different models they sell. Or google aquacraft both are very similar companies

  8. fastelectrics says:

    Yes it is ok
    Use Octura M series prop 45mm diameter to start

    is neu 1515 2y (1100KV) will be gooh with hydra HV 120 on 8s on 35″ mono?
    i find one not expensive

  10. jaxzf says:

    how much is a proboat?? and how fast does the stock version go?

  11. fastelectrics says:

    @crabbystick recorded

  12. fastelectrics says:

    jax this really depnds on whatyour budget is
    Delta Force rtr 23″ mono is the cheapestgood boat I am aware of – you need radio and cells (but these are not expensive). Proboat and Aquacraft monos are good to start with.

  13. jaxzf says:

    hey just wondering i am just about to get a RC boat and wondering which 1 i should get, i would like a boat that goes relatively fast, easy to handle and doesn’t require much matanince

  14. crabbystick says:

    is that a recorded announcement the lap calling or do you have a caller ?

  15. fastelectrics says:

    for a first class 4S rigger approx $AU1500 depending on components approx 110kph in oval trim

    6S rigger 130kph+ appprox $1700

  16. 98Ps3lover says:

    how fast & how much?

  17. fastelectrics says:

    That is correct.

  18. DRZ146 says:

    oohh okay, i have another question. the supervee 27 boat runs two 7.2v batteries, does that mean it runs 14.4v on that one motor?

  19. fastelectrics says:

    More speed needs more watts

    So you more both of voltage & amps is the best way to achieve that

    If you want to keep the runtime you will also need more mah

  20. mkadawametwa says:

    mah is the compacity of the batt you want more volts ^^

  21. analmunkey says:

    i believe its voltage becuase thats the amount of power it dishes out. think of Mah as how much it can hold or run time. look this up incase im wrong

  22. biggray94 says:

    that makes me want one

  23. DRZ146 says:

    hey dude, if i want to buy a custom battery to upgrade the boats speed, do i look for higher Mah or higher voltage?

  24. fastelectrics says:

    It looks light , in fact it was the heaviest the issue is the angle of attack on the sponsons. It was too steep.

    That is a bit like using a too hard pretension on a suspension spring.
    It tends to throw the boat about and then it catches more air and it gets out of shape etc

    Resolved now runs flat and fast.

  25. 2007tacoma says:

    i think the one in last was having weight issues… it was too light

  26. strmcrkjr says:

    Awsom Thanks for a great ride.

  31. jlaforest says:

    The acceleration of these Unlimited boats at the start is amazing. Nice job Racing16!

  32. Kenneth85528 says:

    because of racing16 and videos like this the boat me and my 2 friends have decided to build is now going to be jet driven. I’m sure it’s going to be terribly sh*t and kill us but I don’t care it just looks like so much damn fun.
