    Looks like a cool little cat! Anything coming as far as a rtr hydro now that the Bud Elam and Lumar are gone? Itching for a rtr scale hydro!

        Ugh...Proboat is going the wrong way with this. I wish they would come out with a twin brushless version of a larger Miss Geico than what is already offered in the 29" version. Besides, if they are going to make a mini MG to compare with the AQ MiniMono, at least make it brushless.

          I think these are Just an updated version of the Mini-C and Mini-v.

                No... These are completely new hulls... The Mini Impulse is a directly scaled down IM31, with some tweaks for the size. The 17" MG is a scaled down MG...

                      I've got a brushless system from a crashed velocity that's just waiting to drop in the mini mg. Looks fun.

                        ever consider maybe proboat wanted to do a cat hull for younger boaters? you wouldnt give an 8 y/o a ul1 and controller would you?i think what they did is a good thing….

                          "the masses"???

                          Ummmm... I see two posters out of nearly 10,000 OSE forum members... Not quite sure that qualifies as "the masses"...

                            It will make a good Christmas gift for my GF so she can learn to drive under 35mph. She tried my lso mono and it was too fasr for her she said. This would get her used to rc boating and help work her up to an LSO boat.
