    Apparition or Genesis for fun?

    I was waiting my Genesis from HK since Mid-April, but it still in backorder. I contact HK and they dont know when it will come to stock again. An Apparition will be fun like Genesis? I was planning to change my order to get an Apparition, it will be a nice choice?

    Thanks a lot, its cuz im new in this hobby, i come from helis

                  Thank you guys, but the problem is that I already have made my order (and payed), so I cant get my money back.

                  The Apparition comes now to backorder too, Ill stay in the wait of the Genesis.

                  Hydrojerry, you are helping me a lot, thanks so much.

                      I have cancelled a few orders recently from hobbyking in which I got my money back. Just email cs@hobbyking with the order number and a request to cancel the order. Might take a week or so depending on how busy they are. I email them a few times just to be a pain..lol

                      Also, got one of my genesis' from horracing which is another option if they are in stock. Good luck!

                        It can be an alternative to request money back. But I was tempted to change the order to the Apparition, it returned to stock and I could use all the electronics that I ordered for the Genesis

                        I just don´t know if the hull design would be as good as the Genesis, because it is smaller.

                        Thanks

                          I would get the apparition twin motors, so much fun!

                            I saw him. But my concern is when an engine start to lose efficiency, the boat would be unbalanced.

                              Genesis is better rough water boat no doubt but the apparition is a great alternative. I think you would be happy with either one. I personally would just wait for the Genesis though. I love mine, handles better than I thought and its one of my favorite boats I own, always a head turner for sure.
