Man Vin, that sucks! You couldn't wait one more day and run it at Ackerman.

lol thats exactly what i was thinking. spectacular crash with no one watching or filming . ....

[Vin-m]

Dang man. You gonna fix it? Did you reinforce it any?

ya kfx ill get it fixed but its gonna be awhile .in the middle of doing the cheetah atm so not sure as to when ill get back to this one .hopefully by the end of the year.she was running good to man .only thing i can think of was that i clipped a fish or turtle to get the nose up to do the flip. she was running flat as usual and out of no where was backflipping across the lake. electronics are all taken out now and drying out im hoping they all work still.

Electronics drying? Huh? Come on man! Your stuff isn't waterproof? Let me help you...boat. ....water.....stuff gonna get wet! Lol

I epoxy coat the receiver, waterproof servo, plasti dip the bec and coat esc with either epoxy or plasti dip. Better safe than sorry! This is one of those cases where the response I get from people about their boat staying dry so they don't need to waterproof. .....you never know what's gonna happen!

[olwarbirds]

ouch ! sorry to see this....sure hope I dont do this to my CF Fan, least you hit your goal plus some...DJ

Wow that sucks. Put the esc's and other things that got wet in a large bag of rice. works on cell phones it should work for you.
I have had a couple of high speed crashes with my hull that is like yours. I feel blessed that this didn't happen to me. I hope the rebuild is one that you share with us.

ouch that hurts looks like it busted on the hull deck seam this is why it is best to use 2 " F/G tape on the inside to reinforce hulls sorry man !!

ya ill have to come up with some kind of way to hide the damage when i get it fixed. prolly gonna do a stripe down the side in purple or black.

[dasboata]

F/G is very easy to fix and make it look like nothing happened If you want you can send me the boat !!!

After seeing this I just ordered some 2'' seam tape.
