LOVE IT!! AWESOME REVIEW MR. MAD! 👊🏿😁
@@DoinWhatIDo Appreciate that Bro!
@@MrMad2424 th-cam.com/video/Hl5X5ZC5RZo/w-d-xo.html
Just watched it. Thanks for the mention and congrats on the boat.
@@MrMad2424 very sweet boat, does your code expire?
It’s amazing how far boat tech has come. I remember years ago 15-20mph was considered decent for an electric boat 😂
True that.
I just received my SR80 and the piece that connects the rudder to the servo wire was broken. I replaced it with the metal parts. I ran it on 2200mah 4s and the speed was not impressive but was super smooth great boat. Ive seen some people running 6s on stock esc&motor without issue.
Nice!
Sweet bro! Looks like a killer little boat for the price point!😱You're right, she was super smooth! Love to see you push this one a bit! You know you want to!😜😂😂
Thanks Bro. Yes I prolly will push this one.
Hi I think you've done amazing it's good to see you've used flotation material up front that lid does fly off the front tab breaks off if the motor is modded..That lake you have is beautiful 🧡😊😎👍
Thanks Bro!
Just received my SR80 Pro yesterday. Tested this little beast this morning with 4S & everything stock except that I split the water cooling going through the motor & motor controller. GPS logged 95.4km/h max speed.
Nice!
What battery did you go with
@@DietPizza1 I assume this is for Emmanuel?
@@MrMad2424 I think you are using the revolectrix 4s 5000 mahs. I’m thinking about going with the SMC 5200 Graphenes or 5200 DVs. The DVs get VERY hot when I run them down past 3.8 to around 3.65 in my soniceake, but maybe any battery would do that.
@@DietPizza1 yes I used revo 5000mah 70c
That bad boy was moving across that glass! Nice boat!
Thanks!
Wow bro I absolutely Love it and Omg thats Fast , not as fast as your 200mph 😱 it definitely is a fantastic beginner boat , I'd be happy with just this one 😀 awesome video 👍😍😎👍🇬🇧🇺🇲👍
Thanks Bro.
Dam that's a fast boat... If I didn't know better I thought it was elvis huh huh.....
Good VID

Thanks!
Yo buddy. Remember, you have to turn on the transmitter first and then connect to the battery. But if you power on a boat first it will cause damage for the receive, so better trun on the remote first.
And you finnish playing rc, you have to pull the plug battery first and then turn off a remote.
Yes sir. Thanks!
Another nice review and another cool boat, I definitely need to get myself into this side of the hobby, cheers
Go for it. Love the boats and Thanks!
Super smooth water. That boat run very well brother. Great vid. 💯👍🏾
Yes this boat surprised me. Thanks Bro!
My son loves your Channel the only problem is now I have to buy all the boats you put on here to keep him in the Hobby and happy getting super expensive but he loves the hobby and he's really good at it I try not to let him see the car ones the boats are costing me a fortune already can imagine if he sees some of your car videos I have to pull a loan out of my house lol you the man now doing great buddy
Lol! Thanks Bro! This one is a must have especially for $150.00 with my 20% off code in the pinned comment.
@@MrMad2424 yep already have it ordered he seen the video and he had to have it
@@MrMad2424 does it come with the 4S battery or did you use your own
HAHA! No it doesn't come with battery. I used 4s 5,000mah.
That awesome man that thing moves out very nice happy bashing bud👍🤙😎😜😛🤪👊✌
Can't be beat for $150.00 Awesome first boat for someone.Thanks for watching Bro!
Good run brother.

Thats a cool boat bud. not bad for under $200. Hey btw after about 4 months Horizon is sending me a new Miss Geico 36 its due early next week. Im going to take it out and see if it runs right?? Thanks for sharing. oh btw I hope you have stock in that tape bc you use alot of it..lol

Wow okay I was getting the sr85 but after seeing this I’m getting this but the pro version
Nice!
Good video keep em coming
Thanks!
this boat looks small in the vid, when mine turned up yesterday i was shocked at the size XD happy i didnt pay double for a sonicwake

Appreciate that!
Solid performance for under $200, not bad at all. Can it run in saltwater?
It's around $150.00 with my code. Yes but need tape the hatch and flush it with freshwater afterwards.
Good rc
Thanks!
No Dasboata prop, No Magic decals, 40mph Hmmm Somethings going on here I can feel it. 😎
Lol! Thanks Bro!
@@MrMad2424 YW this is a very nice rc boat I like how it runs right out of the box what battery/batteries are you using in it?
Thanks
@@miguelsalami 5000 mah 4s
@@MrMad2424 Thank You Sir❗
No problem!
Iv got this but o want all the metal parts that the pros got but can’t find them anywhere
The pros metal prop is 5mm shaft. Horrible. Hardly no props fit in US cause 3/16 is the preferred size here. Try www.offshoreelectrics.com and you can get metal rudder that should work. Also a sleeve adapter that will convert the 4mm prop shaft to 3/16 and you can run several props that way.
Sweet little boat I wonder how it runs in rough water
Thanks! Check out this video the water got a little choppy about the mid point mark. studio.th-cam.com/users/videoopJ5KJ9Lg1Y/edit/basic
That dock has seen some changes for the better
It's a nice area for sure.
Have you done any Traxxas boats ,M41 and the Spartan
No.
This is amazing. Can you mount a GoPro on it?
You can but it probably won't self right with the go pro on it.
Great clip, thanks what GPS model are you using?
Thanks! it is a garmin foretrex 401 www.ebay.com/itm/235710663915?_nkw=Garmin+Foretrex+401&itmmeta=01J6J6M9JDQ1AD8AVBM4FKYYRF&hash=item36e1734ceb:g:wnEAAOSwZTJmv4GQ&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKlKmbe3aN4s1O9ehX6tcLPLwi%2F0Or70c%2F0FmIJbtXcPPGNfPixAs%2B88Oy%2FmyhRuaonvLOR5nsgTPdsfrYCG0CVPpt8OqniC87JGm1HjcJSJOrS3HtgOYnXyZPs4PDT%2F9sm9u8VoS88uQTMPifG7OV8SdGCyZmVTg0%2F2GQRkd2SVz1sJSCP6ScGacnDYpKSjQziwHZxRoY%2BA44pxFv%2FqW1aEAwZlMbrHsKkJJhKhkBYXjIcAT%2B%2FEKuwhiXGxKsLbM1baPrxw3kBxBjRYG5mCoVzCOLt6CQnQ8Lw92FlWuCT6dA%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR6qZ0ca0ZA
Random but what type of clear tape did you use? Looks stronger than regular packaging tape.
Hockey tape. You can get it at most sports stores like dicks or local skate stores.
Hello! Great boat! I myself recently acquired this. Where did you buy the gps tracker? Can I have a link, please? Thanks in advance!
Thanks! I got it off ebay. Here is one. They have been discontinued for a while now.

I've been out of the game for a long time I don't recognize the plug I need for the battery to the motor?
It has a xt60 connector on the esc.
faster then the recoil 26 and cheaper too .nice
Thanks! Around $150.00 with my 20% off code. Can't be beat for sure for the money.
Hey I know this is an old video, but could you tell me a good battery to get for this thing? I can’t figure out what one you were using in the video thanks in advance
4s 5,000mah cnhl pack
Was going to get the kids the atomic what you think
This boat is better than the atomic. This one has self righting. Atomic isn't a bad boat though.
Wish I saw this video before I ordered a UDI005
Real good boat here.
@@MrMad2424
any thing I purchase RC, Plane , Helicopter, car needs upgraded. lets see what happens when I get and try the UDI005
👍🏾💯 nice boat
This is the one you need Bro!
MrMad2424 I’ll be waiting on the tracking number from ya 🤣🤣
@@CoachD386 LOL!
I know this is old
But how did u fit the dashbota prop when the stock prop has a larger bore.
i used an adapter sleeve aka piece of brass tubing, or you can run a couple rounds of teflon/pvc tape around the prop shaft to make up the difference.
This is the non pro version of the sr48 it had a 4mm prop shaft. the pro version has a 5mm prop shaft. For my 4mm shaft i used an adapter sleeve that went over the prop shaft and it made it where my 3/16 props would fit it properly.
Another Stellar Review !!!!!! What brand / Part # tape do you use to seal the hatch? Seems to be very high quality
Thanks Bro! I use the hatch tape from OSE. www.offshoreelectrics.com/proddetail.php?prod=hatch-tape-1
@@MrMad2424 Thank you for the link !!!
No problem.
@@MrMad2424 After a few days of deliberation I decided to purchase the Pro version of this boat. Thank you for the link to the boat on Banggood and the discount code.
@@ebermorse9394 No problem. Congrats on the boat!
Will you revisit anytime soon?
probably not soon.
Where did you buy those blue foam?
Dollar General for a dollar. Pool noodles.
Wow 😁
Thanks!
I think this might be a good recovery boat?
It could be made into a good recovery boat. Check out the Harbor Freigjt boat. Very good for around $50.00
The Tug is the perect recovery boat
What battery do you recommend for this boat to hit full speed?
Revolectrix 4s 5800mah 70c
whats the most stable boat with kick you can attach a go pro to in the $300 dollar range MrMad?
TFL pursuit. but it requires a radio and servo. It will do about 35- 40mph out of the box and is very stable. www.banggood.com/TFL-Hobby-1106-Pursuit-82cm-Fibreglass-RC-Boat-3660-or-1620KV-Motor-125A-ESC-Model-p-1034586.html?cur_warehouse=CN&rmmds=search
Thanks 😊🙏
out of the same $300 dollar range and speed which would be the most quiet. say to sneak up on wildlife? say if im trolling. thanks again sir
i really like the Veles 29" Brushless Catamaran RTR not sure what the pros and cons are between the two
@@electric_meadows_racing Veles is a great boat but it's around $400.00 that's why i didn't mention it. As for as quiet these boats are fast electric and are designed to run wide open throttle because the motors are water cooled. So they really aren't made for sneaking up on anything.
Hey Mr. Mad- What are the run times like with a 4S 5000 mah set up? BTW- I always mix in full throttle, half throttle and quarter throttle so my boats can cool down.
You could probably get 7-8 min on and off the throttle.
How does it compare with sonicwave?
Thank you in advance
Sonicwake is 100% hobby grade with metal hardware and this one isn't
HELLO, CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF THE REBERSE IS CANCELED IN THESE BOATS
Yes this boat does not have reverse.
Frigging glass Mr.Mad2424
Yes sir 200mph pond there! lol
You power on the battery first then transmitt?
no but it did that time lol
Hi there, my one doesn't reverse. How about yours? Thanks
No reverse on mine either.
@@MrMad2424 Cheers
Thanks!
Hey mr mad, just wanted some advice From you I want to get a tp power motor for my geico, what KV should I go for in your opinion ?
Geico 36? 6s? 1900 kv range. The Tp motors pull mega amps so you'll prolly have to upgrade esc also.
MrMad2424 thanks for the advice, yes I am going to go to either hobbywing seaking 180 or a ztw 200 amp
Good luck with it.
@@MrMad2424 thanks 👍
Where did you find your GPS I’ve been looking and can’t find them thanks
garmin fortrex 401 is a good one. check ebay
1st nice Mr.Mad2424
Thanks Bro!
Spendo 200 € e poi devo mettere lo scoch per sigillare ????
Thanks!
Dows it have low battery warning?
Yes it will slow and at a reduced speed let you bring it back to shore.
She's no Zonda but she can still get it!
Yes sir. On rails at 40mph all stock.
I'm considering this for my first boat. Definitely not my first rc though. Do you think there's going to be plenty of replacement parts for this? So far hasn't seem pretty reliable? I was looking at the Sonic wake 36 of course it's a little bit bigger and also seems like it it's from a bigger reputable company so I'm just curious if buying this one that cost less would be better and adding the money I saved from the Sonic wake to this boat. I've been looking at both what's the difference in this one and the sr-85 pro they look identical but color
things come and go all the time but the boat consist of a hull and motor and esc...motors and esc's are available lots of places. This boat is better than the sr85 pro
@@MrMad2424 thank you sir I'm going to go ahead and order it at your suggestion I was going to get the Sonic wake or whatever the hell it's called
@@mzondi1970 Sonicwake is better but unless you're constantly doing full-throttle crashes into logs I don't think replacement parts are worth worrying about.
How long did the battery last before it died
about 8-10 min runtime depending on how you're running it.
What about the vector s65 boat is it decent boat?
@@GasCapECBOK I've never tested that boat.
what lipo did you use? how high was the c rate?
