My son's first "Big" boat!

[Make-a-Wake]

I recently got my son a Mini Mono brushless and he loves it, but its small, so I had modded this Syma "toy" boat a while back with a brushed motor. I had a 3650 1500kv available and threw it in with a 3000 mah 4s lipo spinning an x438 and it'll be perfect for him..............

This is a test run I did today filming myself with camera in left hand as well as throttling.

He hasnt seen it run with the new motor but he'll love it.

I have the very samt boat to my son, I did however take a diffrent approach by keeping the dual motors...just swapping them with better one, Graupner speed. And then revived a classic for us who drives Traxxas Villain..the XL1
For starters I was running 8.4 Ni-Mh but the weight effected the motors so he is now running 2S lipo and that works fine...And the most fun part...it now has reverse.
Speed is not near yours but sufficiant for a 5 years old kid
