Pickups are in the bottom and I scraped the extra paint out of both with a hobby knife on day 1. The video is still on my camera as I just haven't had time to upload....I have watched it 4x with the volume at 10 to try to see, or hear anything abnormal....nothing! Running good....two rooster tails shooting up....stops...give it some throttle and it starts turning with no steering input...release the throttle and go slowly in reverse...goes about 3 feet and completely dies. By the time I actually got my hands on the boat, it had been in the water for about an hour. Open the canopy and smell burnt electrical but everything is cold by this time. ESC's were still a solid green so I am assuming they are ok. Only thing I can think of is the cooling system, but it is impossible to see water coming out of the sides of the hull on the video. When it is close enough to see, it is going too slow (needs to be doing 30mph for cooling system to operate).
