Graupner BX2000

[j.m.]

Not sure where else to put this....

But I found this snazzy little bugger while frolicking through some german forum pictures>

Comes with a bb shaft and the rudder installed from the factory! with a floodchamber! :)

I can't tell if it comes with motor and esc or not? It doesn't read like it does on the Hobby Lobby site. If not, it's really pricey.

[j.m.]

No electronics :-(

And yeah.

Im just putting it out there for those who would like one.

People complain that my Mini Cat stuff is overpriced but Phew! Mine are less money and come complete with brushless motor and esc.

[j.m.]

hehe, very funny. That boat is a lot bigger though.

[sailr]

Smaller than our Jollymotor offshore totally ready to run with radio and all for only $299.

I had the BX3000 for a while,they just need the electrics.
Nice boats actually,needs little power to run well.Do take a fair amount of experimenting to set them up though being a high stepped hull.
Heres a video of mine before my brother bought it,on a tiny Mega motor and 3S lipo.
