I was trying to keep the cat in the bag, but I must tell you that the X-blaze is arguably the best mono I've ever driven hands down.

I honestly believe it to out-perform the DF 25.
Its distributed by one of my sponsors Global Hobby (Airtronics)

I ordered one for a buddy, and tried it to much delight.
This boat is probably the best value and bang for buck for the price.

The drive system seems a bit odd, but its solid and brings in ZERO water.
I intend to run this boat at the nats in both LSO and N-2 mono

Extremely clean and durable gelcoat, flawless layup, the 2.4 radio works terriffic, the motor is an absulute BEAST I mean I've never in life seen a motor like it..

I won't be competing with the stock motor of course, it will be gutted for Novak power.

Actually, the X-blaze in your vid isn't the joysway version but it seems to be running well.
The version you pictured is from Bananna hobby

You are correct it is from bananahobby, wife got it for me this past christmas. Gonna try to get a cat this summer for my next boat.

Bill if its any thing like the little Warrior that Joysway do then its going to be a very fast hull indeed with the right Motor & esc. The Warrior at just 15" that i have is running close to 50mph in a straight line, Obviously it needs glass calm water to reach this speed. most things on the boat are not standard, Motor is an outrunner 2836 3800kv, Turnigy Nano Tech 3s 40c-90c, 60amp esc, Octura metal x435. Take any imperfections like hook out of the hull bottom & scrub the bottom of the hull & theirs very little resistance on this hull going through the water compared with other deep v mono hulls. Im certainly thinking of getting one of the X Blase myself but their not that easy to get in the UK. Thanks Martin.

I'm up at 8am to run the thing along with some straightline stuff.
I have the sea fire and its a BEAST!! A huge fiego style motor on 4s lights up like a christmas tree.

Once again, this is by far the best RC boat I've ever driven.
I've run one about 30 times and have yet to flip one.

All of their boats are SICK and beat the pants off most boats in their class RTR
The x-blaze will out-run and perform a supervee like it wasnt no thing.

I claim it to out-perform a delta force and I took second at the nats with a Delta force.
This thing handles rough water like its on wheels..

Here is a clip of my X-Blaze: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqojL3iYzAM
Seems to be similar than the version Banana is selling. Don't know origins of mine, since I bought it used.
Replaced the motor with a brand new motor from Joysway Surge Crusher, replaced the ESC first with 60A version and now with 120A Turnigy and prop is drilled out Graupner K42.

Maybe I'll try some trim tabs to sort out some "wobliness", otherwise I'm very satisfied with this quite low cost boat! Really fun to run in choppy waters :-P

Ok, don't get me started on the X-Blaze, I ran mine at the nationals and there wasn't a person there who wasn't impressed.

I'll get vid of mine later today..

I'm not gonna lie to you.
Its about the most awesome boat I've ever had RTR I've done absolutely nothing to it, and it led the pack in every heat it was raced in in N-2 offshore (until the battery came unlpugged lol!)

Get one from Hobby People

This boat is the closest thing to perfect I've ever driven.

wow, very bold statement

[BILL OXIDEAN]

wow, very bold statement

Just make sure the screws are all tight and the strut and trim tabs are neutral.
You may need to play with the tabs a touch, but once you do its set it and forget it..
