    What to buy with this boat

    I have been out of boating for a few years due to some issue's out of my control, however I am going camping next weekend with the family and it is at a lake. What better time than now to start playing again.

    I am really considering this boat and was wondering what else I would need to buy with it for the weekend?

    I have many carbon props new in the package

    I know I would need shaft oil and hatch tape...what else?

    Prop recommendations, other hardware etc...

    Anyone have pictures of the inside of the boat?

    Welcome back.
    I hate the radio box, so I would lose that first. As far as props if you want to stay cheap the CF42, CF45 worked great on the orignal sv's, but the grim 42x55 was just awesome. No other hardware should be needed. A pair of lipo's and a lipo shield and you should be fine.

                  I had those tabs on my first one, they were purchased with the new one definatley!
                  I also got some replacement turn fins that I had on my first one as well.
                  I am going with a Grim Racer prop to start, probably get some more after next weekend with a few different carbon props and my Grim prop.

                  Thanks guys

                  what is a new tactic 2.4 radio and receiver worth?

                        It comes with a Tactic radio, no am

                        I am selling the radio and receiver once I receive it, I prefer Futaba FASST. I use my 4PK for almost all of my RC stuff. I use it on my Mini-Z, Rock Crawlers, Off-Road vehicles etc. Only reason I don't use it for my planes was I got a deal I could not pass up on a JR9503 air radio.

                          Oh yeah, I missed that this was the sv-27 "R" thread! I like having one transmitter for all my models too. Sometimes its a pain adjusting the trim settings all the time though.

                            4PK has a 40 model memory, set them once and you are done. Just change model number and have the trim settings for the specific boat or vehicle.

                              Nice, No frills with the tactic! Just little plastic knobs. Now you got me thinking of switching over to digital!
