lol at Venom...
Chaep 120 amp esc and a little outrunner
it's got an 1100kv outrunner?
hull this size should use 10s I would think...
Hope someone from Venom does not come over here and try to sell this to everyone like its the greatest...

Motor is listed at $144 and looks like a hobbyking $30 outrunner.
Not a bad idea large rtr cat but i am sure when they start selling if there not way over priced, they will probably sell a fair amount as there is not much (if any) thing else electric in that size.
Just get ready on OSE for a flood of "help blew up my 58' venom boat today" lol
And does anyone want to place bets who will be the first OSE member to build one as a twin
Working on my twin as we speak. JIM

LOL i put 100 bucks on Jim being the first.
Maybe the gfreak guys bought venom and changed the name?
Lmao! True that
Have to get me self some of these
I've got a few of those decals.
I don't get why anyone would buy any Venom boat, or boat products.
Venom in Australia is awsome. They sell team durango and parts same price as Amain in the states.
Normaly here we pay close to close to double for a car and 3-5 times the price for parts.
But as for there own branded gear i would not touch. Onc3 bitten twice shy as they say.
Heyyy Venom will sell heaps of these boats for all the guys who dont know what they are doing and want to get everything at once.
I still feel sorry for anyone who buys it, because any replacement parts will be "out of stock" or even "coming soon" as soon as you break it hahahahaha
id be interested to see how well it turns because the gas one rolls a lot
Which motor and ESC upgrade would you guys consider for this cat on 8S or even 10S?
well the hull is pretty light for a boat that size because its made out of epoxied tissue paper and crap wood rails

FYI: Atomik A.R.C 58" RTR Electric Boat
"This 58” RTR Electric boat is the first large-scale factory electric that out performs it’s gas counterparts. Not to mention, no smelly gas or tedious engine tuning.
The Atomik design team pulled out all the stops with a whopping 2000 watts of brushless electric power out of the stock 1100Kv outrunner mounted in a water-cooled CNC aluminum motor mount. All that power is controlled with a robust 120A water-cooled ESC for a 40+ mph out of the box top speed.
The hand-laid fiberglass hull features full color Atomik racing color scheme protected by a durable gel coat, pre-installed laser cut radio box and battery tray system, which will accompany a single 6S (22.2V) LiPO battery, but is also expandable for up to a 12S configuration. The A.R.C also comes standard with CNC Aluminum running hardware and the fully adjustable Flexdrive system for precise trim tuning."
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. NO WAY this is VENOM. My converted Venom gasser is tough as a mule. Turns almost as well too. JIM

Guys, I stumbled upon this site: www.sdshobby.net there are some large scale monos and cats, don't think they are the same, but the package is questionable. Check them out. Since I am a newbie, I don't want to give any uneducated opinion.
For those who might wanna see...........
