HELLO I HAVE BEEN A RC ENTHUSIEST FOR MANY YEARS.MY FATHER HAD A GAS V BOTTOM 3.5 KB OUTBOARD THAT I AQIURED YEARS AGO AND IS STILL IN USE.NOTICING HOW FAR AND FAST ELECTRIC BOATS HAVE COME I CANT HELP BUT WANT ONE.AT FIRST I WAS LOOKING AT THE READY TO RUN PRO-BOAT MISS GIECO.BUT AFTER SEEING THE HPR AT 114MPH AND VARIOUS OTHER HIGH SPEEDS,I THINK I WANT TO GO IN THE WAY OF THE HPR,MHZ SELECTION.
THESE ARE THE 2 MODELS I LIKE THAT I CAME ACROSS.

ANY OTHER SELECTIONS WOULD BE HELPFUL BUT THAT IS WHAT IM LOOKING TO BUILD.

A TWIN ENGINE SETUP,FAST , AROUND 36 INCH OR BIGGER,(I KNOW HPR IS A FEW SIZES)

AND ANY HELP ON HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST RTR

THANK YOU ,ERIC

advice anyone

RTR can be so many prices and depends on motor choices, escs etc. I have a 32" cat which on 6s will do approx 96MPH although I don't run at this because my lake is too small and 4s is fast enough for me atm.
My set-up costs $900 RTR
Apparition Hull
Twin Feigaos
Twin Custom 200amp watercooled escs
Counter rotating props

This is a cheap set-up really. I could of spent $1000 on 2 LMT Motor then I would of needed better escs like castle 240s so another $600.
All depends on budget.

There are a few guys on here with great running HPRs. Total costs normally = $3000-$6000 range
Hope one of the guys with some more experience helps you out.
