Btw...what happened when it stopped in the middle of the pond? The esc burn up?
Maybe I'm out of line here, but all these boats everyone building here with 180 amp and up escs, smaller lighter hulls with smaller motors...less power and then this big Ole boat has a 120 a esc? What's up with that? Something I'm missing?32" carbon rivercat single 4s 102mph, 27” mini Rivercat 92mph, kbb34 91mph, jessej micro cat(too fast) wasComment

This boat runs Phenomenal for an rtr, I'm very pleased with it. One of my favorite boats by far : )Comment

I believe you did miss something. First, it's a 130 esc, and the esc in question is anything but small in comparison to the boat. Higher cell count stuff tends to pull less amps than say a 1-cell or 2 cell setup. Not to say high cell counts Can't pull big amps though..Comment

This reminds me of the rtr boats like the spartan, impulse 31 etc that say on the box you can run 6s....and while you can....it just doesn't last long. I guess you'll find out on this one. Seems to me that 130a esc is a little on the small side for this.32" carbon rivercat single 4s 102mph, 27” mini Rivercat 92mph, kbb34 91mph, jessej micro cat(too fast) wasComment

One couldn't help but question the motives of someone over 5000 miles away that would concern them self about a lake that they are not paying taxes on, and will never run on in their life. No, it's not under NAMBA insurance, or any other sanction Meaning: An arangutang can run a 58 inch twin gas cat if he so pleases. A 3 toed tree sloth can run a boat there if he gets a wild hair. Calling the parks Director is just a way of trying to spoil my fun, and others who run here.
All hats off. Joe the model boater here.
You totally missed the point as usual. C' mon man get over the conspiracy theories and get real.
The motive is Model Boating Bill, the same motive David had when he posted.
Example:
If just one of those ladies that felt the need to step back calls the Parks Director and complains you (and whoever else that currently uses that site) will be looking for another place to run. Sites are VERY hard to find. Face it, most people in the parks view model boaters as a flies at their picnic.
What if's.
I know you are an experienced model boater, but accidents happen.
You can argue all you want, but if that boat runs away or comes undone, and it will, if it hasn't already, (Where is the hatch?) and seriously injures someone, what are you going to do?
The attorneys get involved, lay it on your home owners insurance (if you have it) and in the process find out your a NAMBA member, then go after those $$.
Do you think an accident at this site won't jeopardize what you guys have at Legg? I wouldn't take that bet. You think that boat or parts of it won't make it over that little wall? I wouldn't take that bet either.
Not to mention what could happen if the media gets involved. And that has the potential to affect us all. Step away from the "fun" a minute and think about it.
Everyone that runs a model boat should be concerned about this kind of thing.
Looking for one of the "cards" now.

I just got an idea! Since this boat is getting such strong feedback, it sounds like Perfect material for my next huge magazine article. That way it can be shared with 100000 instead of 150 plus no one can throw rocks at it : )Comment
