***INTRODUCING*** The AquaCraft UL-1 Superior Fe Hydro RTR 2.4

[raptor347]

Doozie,
We've tested the SV system, the BJ26 system and the new hydro system side by side at the PSFEMBC club races. There is no visible advantage from one to another. Slightly different props but comparable speeds. Any of the three can win.

Don't sweat it, I haven't cooked an SV esc yet (and I've done some pretty rediculous tests). All the spec motors benefit from connector upgrades. I'm running 5.5's because they are my sandard and make pretty good heat sinks for the smaller wires.

How were you testing the new hydro system when in just came out?

[JimClark]

I think Brian has a few connections Doozie

I was asked to see what I thought of the motor. I've had a test motor for three months. I've beaten the snot out of it and it just keeps going.

Brian what batts did you run in that boat?

This explains the complete absence of snot when I saw the boat last week

Thanks Darin and Brian, hoping to get involved in some spec class racing next year, was not sure on the motor kv 1500-2050 Thanks for shedding some light!

the Chinese are using snot for bearing grease?

The average chinese factory worker earns $1 for 12 hours of work, without any benifits. Go Aquacraft!!! Yeah baby!

I have lots of 3s battery packs laying around because of my 6s MMM brushless EMAXX truck. So I decided to build a cooler running and lower amp draw 6s UL-1 sporting combo using the NEU 1515 1.5Y 1500kv motor. I will be on and off the throttle lots.

James,
Don't get me started on other countries making things for the U.S. other than U.S. people making them...

Let's see, they sell it for $330 using $1 per day labor. So would that make it $52,800 using $160 per day ($20/hr) labor??

We all want everything made in the USA, but virtually nobody is willing to pay what that would cost. Remember, Wal-Mart lured us in with "Made in the USA" and then sent everything overseas, and yet we still flock into Wally World every day.

Go figure!!

I still want one of these, regardless of where it is made. There is very little of what we use in this hobby that is made in the USA if you think about it. Neu motors is one glaring exception.

Lehner, Feigao, Nemesis, Schulze, Castle (to a large degree), most all batteries, all radios, most hulls, all made someplace else. Seems odd to single out AquaCraft for scorn here.

Nicely done!

Ehhhh..... Nobody singled out AQ. Not made In USA = no jobs In USA. This comment Is off topic hijack and has nothing to do with a little r/c rtr boat.
