The Jack Russell rounds up the RC boat but as they can't walk on water all she can manage is a good mauling from a distance. As usual a good stack entails with the JR coming a croppa :)
She prefers the Traxxas Revo RC truck as she loves to sink her teeth into it when it crashes. The Nitro gives her a high I'm sure :P
The RC Boat is a Modded Arpro with an FM TX and RX with a 1500 kv brushless outrunner engine with a 3 prong Octura prop. Tried a 2 blade "grim racer" prop which was so out of balance I dare not use it. Boat goes good after waterproofing the RX and steering servo amongst a heap of other worthwhile mods.
Running a 5000 ma 3s Lipo which is good for 10 minutes of flatout runtime. Top speed in excess of around 60 kph.
Had to re glass around the stern as it was paper thin and fractured and leaked. Blocked off fake exhaust as this allows the boat to float upside down without sinking by creating an airlock inside hull as these boat come with no foam inside the hull for floatation which is a bit silly as the boat would sink out of site without it if it flipped (which happens regularly as it has a good power to weight ratio).
All in all a good RC Electric boat but needs quite a few mods to be reliable. Fast and cheap.
