Twin prop Genesis?

[OffShore_RC]

I was just curious, HK sells the single prop Genesis on their website, but the picture below from TFL Hobby (Manufacturers of the Genesis) shows a twin prop version on the right.

I was just curious, has anyone ever seen the Genesis twin prop version?

Hi
Yep apparantly Aztec sell them apparantly.
im not 100% sure if its a worth while setup in Rtr,
also heard that it wasnt counter roatating as well

from what I can see on the other side behind the rudder, that blade looks to be going the same way, not counter rotating.
the genesis stock driveline has taken an 8S setup and survived a pass or two on 10S if I remember ben's "experiment"
you could just go with a single (buy the RTR for hull and hardware and redo the electronics), or buy a daytona from fightercat (it's the same hull, just better quality)
if you don't want to build one, you can look for a counter rotating 4mm square shaft, assuming that's what's in the twin since it's in most chinese RTR's, check kintecracing.com

I bought a twin genesis from aztec and love it! A little pricey but still fast. Props are counter rotating but very small (37mm).

To me it looks counter rotating. Left prop looks like it's going counter clockwise and right prop going clockwise.

oh you're right, i wasn't paying attention to the one on the inside

My original intention is just to get the single prop genesis w/motor and go from there. I was just curious is all..to me twin prop boats=twice the money and twice the problems should something go wrong.

I was looking at the Daytona hull, but being relatively new to RC boats and not having a lot of time to learn about new things (namely paint since it is a bare hull), I'd rather buy one ARTR.

Don't forget twice as cool

The sound of twin brushless harmonizing with eachother sounds amazing.
