Yes, congrats indeed! Never seen anybody rise up so quickly!
You are getting alot of good advice, if I were you, take a few days to digest all the info. Your place is so wonderful and you have the complete freedom to run a RC boat , unlike some of us having to drive to a place and worry about the fishermen and/or duck/turttle huggers.
So, in a short time you will be looking for a bigger sized, faster speed boat. Now, all the support equiptments NEED to be ABLE to serve you in the foreseeable future. I understand the desire to find an econo charger and so on, just don't aim too low price wise that in two months you need to up grade that too. The lake is not going away, another way is to plan ahead and start your shopping list without the pressure of having to finishing up your shopping spree now.
BTW, I have the non self-righting version of that boat, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvev36-LKG4
I bought it five years ago from Minicatusa, it was really a fun boat, but I am not a fan of this version either.Too many boats, not enough time...

I completely agree about the charger. Other issue with "econo chargers" is they're made from cheap parts that prematurely fail, don't charge batteries correctly (very important for LiPo's), etc. -- Save up your money and invest in a good quality charger (regardless of brand) from the beginning, you'll be much better off in the long run.Yes, congrats indeed!

Ditto on that, I had such a charger come to me thru purchase and went to charge a lipo and it fell apart on the work bench and went into garbage can. Cheap isn't the WORD.Comment
