Up until yesterday I used my Rio EP as a rescue boat, always worked great. But the thought of putting a BL motor in it had been in the back of my mind, so finally I put the FasTech motor and love the higher speed which gives a pleasing scale look on the water. Now Tower is out of stock, is the Traxxas Blast worth considering, I am attracted to its steerable out drive. Also the AQ ESC was not robust---would the Traxxax unit hold up better in low speed operation? Both are not water cooled, BTW.
