methinks it would really move if a person were to install a couple of feigao 380 bl motors in it ;).

[boatman cmbc]

yes it would but in my club we dont have a class for that yet . i do have anouther boat kinda like this one coming. 27in. 50$ china boat i just might go brushless on this one. :bounce:

[boatman cmbc]

well the 50$boat took 2nd and up against what it raced thats real good. will tune some more this month and try to get more speed.

Sounds like it is working out for you. Any chance for some pics or vids? I'm a fan of making otherwise cheap boats going faster too.

Can't wait to see that video I was just in HF in my area and was seriously considering buying this boat just for fun!

[boatman cmbc]

if you buy one, juice it to the max. then build it to what the hull can handle and let me know what you did and how well it performs.

I get a mess of coupons from Harbor Freight and you can even use the 20 percent coupon online.
