Insane Boats P-Spec Sport Hydro 1st run with Vid !!!

[properchopper]

Oh, I forgot to mention; Jan got his "Legg Lake Death Buouy" wings today when he nailed the buouy in turn four at the lake at full tilt with his Dark Horse shovel. Amazingly, no damage to speak of other than the shakes one gets rowing out to survey the carnage. Go Jan [ & prop down, Bro. The boat needs to actually touch the water at some point] !!!

Darin, if you get yours before I do, I will be royaly pissed off, as that will show favouritism towards the home crowd .

Hahaha... Mine doesn't have to come through customs...

No worries... I just got in line with everyone else. Mine is getting some color, so it'll likely take a bit longer anyhow.

Hmmmm.... maybe we need to talk Brian into doing a 30" version of THAT boat...

Darin, I get large items shipped to an address in that bizare area of Point Roberts WA ...you have to be from BC or WA to understand this location...customs delay on return to Canada is 10 minutes and they may wave you through with no added costs. Also mine is RED in colour, and note the correct spelling of COLOUR

I'm really considering this boat. May have to sell off my brushless Jammin crt x2. This is one badass hydro!

I was really nervous rowing all the way out there... when I got there a quick glance reveled nothing other then scratches and parts of the buoy floating around the hull like well... a boat wreck.
When I brought her to shore I looked closer inside and ONE of the 5.5mm had become lose hens the lack of response when I throttled the right side up DH to bring her to shore after the hit. The a real close up tonite revealed nothing wrong with the hull at all. other then some minor scratches on the impact site and batteries pushed off CG.
I really wish there was a larger version of the DH, I think she'd do great in bigger water... along side the new Insane hull, which is very stable all around I must say. Tony was generous enough to let me lap his at Legg and there was NO issue with the chop present... I had to do the "throttle dance" to keep the DH in the water due to side to side roll... usually she is very stable but bigger chop means more air time.
Brian, any chance you could build us some larger Dark Horse (or Dark Clydesdales, lol)?
Anyway, good to see you again T, nice work on your roster...

Here are some pics of my new red and black Insane hydro. I'm running my 1527 1d motor and a castle controller on 4s 1p 5000 Thunderpower lipos. I'm sure most of you can imagine the kind of speeds I'm getting with this setup. I'll get some video as soon as I can hook up with Tony and the boys.

gulp!...very nice...I would estimate closer to 70 and can make more but you do need to turn :)

That color combo looks great! Very cool boat!

I agree... that looks pretty cool.... I ordered mine with Black bottom and Orange top, and seeing this one has me stoked now!

Will be adding some bright spots underneath so it can be seen in the event it overturns.

I ran black boats years ago, then quit when it became apparent that dead black boats are invisible to other drivers. Upside-down black boats are even worse, and I've seen too many hit by accident. Better paint that rudder florescent yellow.....

Amen! I'm right with you there... Will be taking measures on mine to make sure it can be seen if it overturns.

Should be some sort of NAMBA rule requiring that, in my opinion!

[Fluid]

More rules....

How about more common sense?
