    Yes I agree this boat is not a copy of the Stiletto or any other current tunnels. We should not all jump to conclusion that its a copy just because its from Asia or other manufacturers are already selling tunnel boats.....

    It is a tunnel hull just like many tunnel boats produced by other manufacturers. The outboard motor kinda look similar to the old Kyosho outboard (Dolphin I think), though this one seems to be able to take the power of brushless motor. The scale realism of the motor is nice......

    Looking forward for some feedback on the boat from future owners.......

      To me they are fare apart it is crazy!!!
      And yes if I have enough money for another boat right now, I would pay for Stiletto no problem....
      Besides, it is on my to do list together with geico and traxxas....
      Rock On.....

      Sure, the ESC is lower amp at only 50 and servo setup seems to be a bit more simple and probably uses a cheaper motor.

      Any feedback?

        This forum has finally reached the status of RumRunnerRacing. Congrats to all of you who can't stand anything that does not fit the NAMBA status. Anyone that buys a HK boat, runs junk and the 300% markup that AQ makes is okay because they give away some free product to a select few.

          LOL. I don't race. I don't like junk. It ends up stinking, and in the trash. Don't blame a forum. Blame people with common sense.

              It seems so. I just do not like people being misled. I've bought junk in the past, only to regret it. I had to learn the hard way, and I'd like to save others who will accept advice the trouble. It isn't about brand wars for me. It's about whats been proven to work. I leave hull design to the pros and take setup tips from experienced FE boaters. Doing this, I've been very successful.

                With all due respect Mr.Hill go get a cup of coffee and take a couple of deep cleansing breaths. It seems that everyone is ok here but you sir.
