        Hey guys just joining you. Thanks for the feedback on our EKOS, we are very excited to bring this product to you.
        If you like what you see then stay tuned we have plenty more were this is coming from. We are developing these products to meet your needs for speed and quality. Unfortunately those can be expensive words so the challenge we have taken on is to achieve that goal and meet a reasonable price point.
        If you purchase a Venom product of any kind and have an issue with it please dont hesitate to contact us. The sooner the better and if youtry and fix it yourself you just might void any help we could render so please ask first then go from there.

        We are expecting our next shipment of EKOS's on Monday so if you interested in one please place an order as soon as you can, they are going fast! We have sold out before and it looks like we are on track to do it again.

        Ive done extensive all weather testing on this boat so feel free to ask me any questions you have about the EKOS.

        Yes the drives are adjustable and rebuildable, CNC machined Arneson style, ball bearing, with 4mm shafts.

        Have a great weekend,

        Chris

            I talked with two different guys at Venom. Both were very cordial and said that they would send me a new motor. The second one said that there was no record of my motor failure...

            Well that was 10 days ago, and still no motor.

            At this point, I really don't care, as I had to leave the cabin. I will let everyone else be the judge on their customer service...

            Is 10 days reasonable??? You be the judge...

                It will be interesting to learn the reason for the delay. I certainly hope support and parts are available. Last I looked, nothing is in stock.
                Just checked. They are now showing some parts in stock.

                  I have a question...I notice that tower hobbies has parts listed for this boat but none in stock.....I also see a hull listed....question is will there be a "hull only" for sale?...and if so when do you think that might be?

                    I finally got mine on thurs, i ran it friday on six cell NiMH because the 3s lipos are on order. I had no real problems, just a lot of time adujsting the steering. It works great at speed but makes it very hard to turn a low speed. I took it out this morning and it worked fine for about 3.5 secs then started acting up. The throtle was not responding to input, then acting on its own. I thought the esc's might come programed in lipo mode and the low voltage cut off might have been the prob. So, I went to reprogram them. The first one went fine, the second will not go into programing mode, the motor just beeps as soon as you hook the pack up and doesn't quit until you unplug it, any suggestions?

                    Also my Tx doesn't have the EKOS model program, it was on the GPV-1. Does this matter or is it just pre-programed settings that I can adjust on my own?

                    Thanks

                      design a newer modle of the boat 36" or more. with more commonly used parts such as a 540 sized motor. same speed as the EKOS's just bigger and easier to find parts for and for around the same price. id buy it...

                      dont forget the better gauge wire!

                            If you go to Venoms site, they actually show the hull and hatch in stock for $159.99

                                To everyone who is thinking of buying this boat -

                                Save the money and skip the 3s.

                                Go directly (and do not pass go) to 4s (I should have listened to 6sHydro ).

                                Even though this is a nice running boat on 3s (I think), most on this forum would end up on 4s anyway. Just my 2 cents...

                                I think that NitroVal is installing 2-Neu 1515-1y in his EKOS. I think that he just cannot give up on airplanes...
