when will the RTRs be avilable?

**Joern Markset** · 06-23-2009, 05:02 AM

Vortex is pretty close to ready, and the Sniper will hopefully be ready in August.

**Steven Vaccaro** · 06-23-2009, 06:46 AM

Thanks for posting the pictures Jorn. The boats look very well put together. OffshoreElectrics should have some for sale soon.

**Tunda** · 06-23-2009, 11:46 AM

Do you know the price on the sniper?

**Steven Vaccaro** · 06-23-2009, 12:35 PM

Once I have them at my door I can figure out the final pricing. Alot of the cost depends on the cost of shipping to our store.

**bigpapa** · 06-24-2009, 12:33 PM

kool hydro gotta get one when they are relased

**Punisher 67** · 07-03-2009, 03:13 AM

The little red Sniper has certainly caught my eye

**sailr** · 07-03-2009, 09:51 AM

WHEN are the Chinese gonna wake up and come out with some Hydros in 27-30" for LSH?

**sailr** · 07-03-2009, 09:54 AM

Outrunner motor. Remains to be seen on the performance end. Definitely a pretty little boat! Nice hardware. Love the little turn fin!

**Rumdog** · 07-03-2009, 10:32 AM

Why's everyone gotta be hung up on NAMBA racing classes and such? I really could give a crap! I race with friends and have plenty of fun. The rules and over organization take a lot of fun out of it for me. Minis are a blast!

**sailr** · 07-03-2009, 10:59 AM

I agree, but most people form clubs and join NAMBA to get the insurance the lake owner requires you to provide them. As far as NAMBA classes, any club can run any class they want. They can make up a class, you just can't get 'district points' and set NAMBA records unless it's an established NAMBA class.

I'm a big proponent of clubs. By having organized meets, you learn a lot from the other members, etc. But the vast majority of r/c boaters don't belong to anything. They have found a lake to run on that doesn't require anything and they just have fun! Nothing wrong with that.

I agree the minis are a blast but you and I unfortunately seem to be in the minority. They also require a lake that stays pretty calm so that's another restriction. Oh well!

I have to disagree! Sailr, your Minicat micro hydros handle some seriously rough conditions and with the weight of the battery placed a little forward, they don't flip readily either. Plus, now with the Eco hulls you are offering, the sport boater can have a blast without worrying about retrieval of a flipped boat.

If you haven't been watching on the forum and don't know what I'm talking about, look at what Sailr is offering for various clubs across the country and if you're not part of a club, start one!!! => https://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...ead.php?t=8438 POST #17

**sailr** · 07-03-2009, 10:37 PM

It's nice to be disagreed with when the news is good! Haha. Good to hear you're successfully running my little hydro on rough water!

I do need to correct you on one thing though, I'm only offering the 'special' on the Eco to people here on OSE, not clubs across the country. Not at this time anyway. I WILL offer a club special later after we get this first shipment of Mini ECO's in and enough of you guys are running them to give your opinion of the boat, etc. and we generate some demand! THEN I'll issue another production order to our factory to get more in stock.

What he said! Sorry, got the special offer confused!

**sailr** · 07-04-2009, 12:23 PM

No problem! Thanks for promoting the ECO. Still haven't pre-sold all of the 6 that are coming in! Two white ones left.

**Tunda** · 09-03-2009, 02:57 AM

**Steven Vaccaro** · 09-03-2009, 06:24 AM

I should have some in a week or so.

**westbeach** · 09-14-2009, 07:37 PM

Steve,

Any updates on this Sniper RTR ?

**Tunda** · 09-14-2009, 09:09 PM

Im still waiting also..............

**Steven Vaccaro** · 09-14-2009, 09:46 PM

The small sniper is going to be a while longer. The hydros are in. They are well made. I have to take pictures and get them listed on the site.

**westbeach** · 09-14-2009, 10:21 PM

Steve,

Those hydros look like they are running Outrunners. And it looks like plastic props, is that right? And info regarding the Snipers? Such as motor/ecs/props etc. Any ideas on pricing? Thanks Steve.

**Steven Vaccaro** · 09-15-2009, 11:59 AM

Thats correct.

No info on the snipper yet.
