hey all. looking for first boat.

[ssinnett]

I have 150 bucks store credit for amain hobbies .com

im looking into a few boats and I wanted some feedback in terms of running hardware, quality of components, motor.

these say that they have esc's for 11.1v.
what Im wondering is. can I run a 2s lipo?

aquacraft minimono
proboat shockwave 26

im looking to get either one of these boats.

what do you guys suggest?

Your going to want to run them both on 3s lipo cause they'll be slow as hell on 2s. But for the price and performance out of the both I would pick up a minimono and a metal prop for it and you'll have a really nice boat to go to your local parks and run in the duck ponds. However if you wanted to go racing, I would suggest the following boat, It would be a great and competitive boat for p-ltd mono. I know its a lil ways away from your store credit, but you might want to look into it if your wanting to race.

You will be very happy with a UL1. They are very fast on 4s. You can YouTube them to see first hand.
Good luck!
