BLACKJACK 26 Brushless Catamaran RTR

[Piranha2]

You are all true, yes the strudder, u-joints and electronics are terrible buuuuut, at least it's another player in the BL market. FE needs more attention so that more innovations can be designed and implemented. Gotta love Proboats marketing guys......boat looks like it flies.....hmm.......strudder / u-joints......that's one of its biggest speed limiting factors. Yes, I've had them.

its about time projunk came out with a brushless boat! its to bad that you wil probably have to modify it to be reliable, atleast the SV you can drive it out of the box and not really ever do any thing to it.

It looks pretty. I wonder if Namba will have a special class for it?

Looks good to me! Yes the drive train will need to be addressed but we have already done all the home work!! My converted one is super stable and super fast Should bring a few more into the FE world!!

I shouldn't give Proboat such a hard time, I have beached WOT several times with their ABS hulls and they have held up decent. Plus it's my rescue boat, so I do rely on her.

Guys;

The SV had some major growing pains when it first came out as well , Mine had 2 speed controllers go before I got a reliable one from Aquacraft as well as 1 motor that just died
Just read some of the many forums out there and a lot of people considered them to be junk as well.

By BJ26 electric conversion is doing just fine from a relability standpoint,,,with the factory hardware being used. Just be careful on the turns as it like to relax on its back quite a bit:)

I run consistently in the upper 30's to low 40's on 12 cells and just last week tried 14 cells and hit 46.5 according to my Navibe GPS. The thing flies in a straight line !

My 1/12 Llumar is holding up just as well , running in the low 40's on 14 cells consistently. Last year it hit the shore , full speed on to some rocks, straightened out the rudder and turn fin, put some epoxy on the scratches and it was ready to go the following day.


Proboat desevers credit for getting into the FE market. Sometimes , to much negative bashing prior to a products release can be a great way from discouraging other manufacturers to make the leap to FE.

Every company deserves a chance and as long as they back up their product if things go bad, like Aquacraft did, then good for them.
