Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and brand new to R/C boats. I just purchased the Shockwave 26 Brushless and I've been seeing a lot of negative reviews on this boat. Ive read a lot about the driveshaft being bent from the factory and a lot of the ESCs being smoked in guys boats. Just wondering if I should upgrade the ESC in my boat and what do I need to get? I'll be running Dynamite Speedpack 5300 mAh 7.4 V 2S 30C Li-Po batteries in my boat.

I guess it don't matter the size of the boat, rather it's my full size real one or my smaller rc one. Just another hole in the water to throw money in just different size hole.Modified Jae21, Stock Jae21, Cheetah, Ul-1, Shock Wave 26 V2 (Rescue Boat).Comment

I was debating on getting the Impulse 26, but it has only a brushed motor and I wanted a little bit more performance. I'm thinking about getting the Impulse 26 for my wife to start out on. That way she can have some fun too and don't have to stand there and watch me. She can get in on the action too.Comment

Oh ok, well it will be fast enough for me right now to get my feet wet. I eventually want to build a race boat.Comment
