    imho these are chinese made with under sized motor, same as the 26" ARTR that Steven is currently testing, the hull might be interresting, as the 26" is...

          Produces 48 ~ 72Km/h (30 - 45 mile/hr) maximum speeds of a true racing boat these guys lie worst than a rug, no way is that flimsy 6 cell nimh gonna do that. but the cat looks ok. I like the fact that it has a deeper tunnel over cats like the bj

              I like the 4 AA battery pack in the hull, are they running 2 battery packs, one for the radio and one for the motor?

              looking at other products, they have all the cheap ones that are listed on ebay too.....

                The top boats look pretty cool. I like the paint job on them rather than the standard yellow etc. I just bought a 33" Delta Force knock off on ebay ARTR for 299.00. The nice thing is if you are not into building you can buy one of these and then drop a better motor and esc in them and you are good to go.

                  That pond is familiar. Someone on RC universe I think posted a vid at that pond.

                    Yeah. I suppose there is always a "risk" when you are the "first" to try out something. It may be good.....or not...
