I've been hoping the Rio EP section of this forum would come up soon!
Well I've ordered my Rio EP and am just waiting for it to come in. Once I receive it I will be shooting some pics of everything and taking everything apart to make sure it's all together like it should be!
Next I will go ahead and take it to the pond and make sure everything works correctly, if it does I will post some GPS numbers with the stock set up. From the Video's I've watched 100 times each (all 2 of them) I'm expecting maybe 15-17 Mph stock.
I will start with minor upgrades before doing a brushless conversion. I've still not decided on what I want but so far the Proboat Widowmaker 2900 Kv motor and an ETTI speedo will be going in it unless I figure something else out. I love the AQ products but I also really like the Proboat motors!
Anyways I'm pretty excited to get this plastic boat for some reason! I always loved the look of the Rio 51 but it's to big for me and it's gas. The Mini Rio is too small for the water conditions in my lake. (good for my pool though) So this fit the bill perfect!
