    What is this cr.p??? Video sucks! Camera man recording sucks! Boat sucks!
    Can not do one straight run with it???? Driving style down the drain....
    Wicked, Ill take it!!!!
    I have seen so many videos here on OSE, good and bad but this one is something alse....
    It's got a good beat and I can dance to it....Whoops wrong video....
    Uh hmm. Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a UL1 or Miss Elam brushless? Both are proven boats with good support.

      These guys are clowns. Why even put a number on speed that it clearly doesnt do? Maybe in scale speed!
      yeah that might be it. clowns they are......... the boat is pretty though.

            first vid, hydro runnig 5s should do a lot better imo
            second vid, from what i have seen that boat costs $350 hull and hardeware.
            stage 3 is $550 includes motor,esc. no battry or tx/rx

            whats a ul-1 from steve about $330 and thats with a 2.4g radio
            thats a lot left over for batts and a nice grim prop compared to the $550 from the freaks hydro that needs tx/rx and batts

              first video, Gimme a break......
              Second one much better untill he turns back. Extremely short and you can see the checking temps by touching the motor but at least they did couple of straight runs.
              Still would not purchase any from them, period!

                It's a nice looking hydro but what's with the left turns? I wonder what the specs are on the motors. Has anyone found the actual numbers on them? Some of you guys have looked into these surely. How long is the hydro?

                I still would like to see one blow through a turn wide open. Maybe a little traffic. I build all my stuff to take the turns full speed.

                  not sure if anyone has bothered at $350 for just hull and hardware, you can get a complete ul-1 for less than that

                      No wonder all the videos are so short......
                      Wrong turns, short runs, slow runs, terrain runs.... Get me out of here....

                        That's right, and who would want to buy an overpriced hydro from these guys anyway?
                        RTR UL-1 is cheaper than their hull and hardware!
                        you can get one from Steve of go Tower for about 250bucks RTR!
