    AquaCraft Revolt 30 RTR 5s setup 2.4ghz radio Turnigy 180v3 ESC Prop Choice

    SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD

    Here is my Revolt 30... this boat hasn't had much use, Probably 10 runs on, but I did let my nephew use it and he beached it at the beginning of its life. Small nick in nose was touched up with CA, and the underside had a little chip out of one of the rakes, very minor No structural damage... boat runs like an absolute TOP! Boat comes totally RTR minus lipo, but I can add a brand new lipo in price as shown below.

    Has three runs on 5s, the rest were on 4s before esc upgrade. Def makes this boat FUN.... I'd estimate around 50mph... and handles excellent!

    I tore the plastic junk battery tray out and had Velcro down, which actually works fine holding down a 4400mah 5s 65-130c nanotech lipo... but I removed the Velcro as it was peeling up, you can install something like a strap with atop and epoxy in, or just use Velcro... seems to work fine... and I harpooned this boat into the water with just Velcro... pops right back out of water... :) Very fun boat.

    Turnigy 180 V3 ESC, 3 runs old 6mm motor side bullets, 6.5mm battery side.

    Boat has the stock aquacraft 1800kv with upgraded 6mm bullets...the kv is again 1800kv, so 5s is definitely in its vocabulary.

    Boat has stock servo.

    Upgraded OSE flexshaft

    Boats hull has been sanded at rear where the water sometimes lol, contacts the hull on plane.

    Boat comes with stock 2.4ghz Tactic Radio/Rcr

    It has a 3 run old Turnigy 180v3 esc... these are better then the seaking V3 as they have an larger cap bank...

    Boat is not perfect but very presentable... no cracks in transom, etc.... it wasn't beached at much speed... maybe 6-7mph... lol, I knew I shouldn't have turned my back on him

    $285 plus exact ship for the upgraded boat with the T180esc/tactic radio/receiver and either a x442 prop s&b or a x440/3 s&b, boat runs slightly faster on x442... def 50mph, but only slightly slower on x440/3 and handles better, your choice... x442 shown in pics...

    $325 plus exact ship and I will add a BRAND new 4400mah 65-130c with 6.5mm for the boat... I buy 10s packs and unbundle them hence the pic shows no shrink wrap... I will wrap in electrical tape and send the lipo with 6.5mm's or you can find shrink wrap for the pack... I don't really care to sell the lipo, they are fantastic packs...work GREAT in this boat! I'll keep my used ones and ground ship this seperate on my dollar.

    No marks on hardware just coupl little chips on boat, next to chip on nose is light scratches not stress cracks...a great fast runner and very smooth boat.

        I spent some of my afternoon making and installing a battery tray, and reinforced the stuffing tube not that it needed it but when they come in the RTR models without one it's worth doing... I'll post a pic of the guts now, figured someone else might not enjoy Velcro peeling up and having to install something... No this isn't the boat on rcg, I don't have it listed there.

        Boat is listed same way, no price increase... But now has a nice battery tray, the tray was leveled using my iPhone level app :) leveled boat on stand first then tray, west systems epoxy and fiberglass cloth bought at west marine lol, used to reinforce... Plummer epoxy putty used to reinforce the flex tube, there was absolutely nothing wrong here but the stuffing tube did float a ways before the motor/coupler location. Just insurance, I like the plumbers epoxy, gives a touch of weight to right where all the action comes from.
