    Default Miss Geico twin

    I need to clear room on my shelves and since I’m onto a little bigger boats I think this one would be a lot of fun for someone. I built it from a bare hull I picked up locally. It runs on 4s and is a real good one on 5s. I put Proboat 1800kv Motors in it powered by Seaking 120’s (V1 I believe). The ride surfaces were modified to prevent some of the ‘tripping’ in corners. Build thread is here: https://forums.offshoreelectrics.com...n-G&highlight=
    And the last vid and time it ran was here at the 4 minute mark:

    I am looking for $400 ARTR (unless you have a Spektrum then I can include Rx.

    Mmm, sorry about the shots. I’ll try and Remedy them. So the hull got a good inlay but there was a couple hairline cracks when I got the hull. I have the pic here. I think I will go over the bottom again this weekend so she is all good again.

    Yes I can ship it for that. It is a V1 Proboat Geico. I would like to go over the bottom as long as you are not in a panic. That was 5s in the video BTW. And the other spot on the hull was between the sponsons in the classic seam spot. It was addressed in the rebuild. I can get a pic in a bit before we seal the deal.

    And thanks Ryan!

    I have run 3300mah but it is a little loose and light. The 4000mah’s I had were great. Nothing special for cells just a local brand. I’ll see if I can get the size. It was an easy fit.
    Here is the front. But it is all beefed up inside. I just did not want to mess with the paint on this one.
