Hi chris. You got the boat from me .It looking good when i see the Hammer time and the lewis hamilton. You done a good job there. Nice with all the deco. THANKS
Chris I got my boat with damage too had 2 bad ESC's and 1 bad motor, was gonna install tp motors but decided to go back to stock first. Painting the inside is a good way to get rid of any staining from esc damage or getting rid of the burnt electronics smell, if you have any. I did not realize your in the UK The best place for you to get ABC props is mtc boat or MHz boat in Germany, you will have to do a google search to find it . Last time I was on their website you had to click on a link modelbaucenter or something like that and that will take you to a site that has a very good selection of abc props. Go with the 1714 or 1715 and you won't be sorry, make sure you sharpen and balance correctly, they will go faster then the cnc Alum props....,
Modell bau center Lorenz That's it If shipping from usa is faster for you then Germany then go ose offshoreelectrics Those are the only two places I know that carry a good selection of raw ABC props. You can also try Brian buaas or Chris Dasboata if you want race ready props but I'm not sure if either of them will ship to UK.
watch my channel SS you will see I don't worry much about paintwork ,,I am just about speed and having fun ,,,,however I can repair the damage that I do ,,,,so that's my point,,,,, being pretty boat is not thang ,,LOL,,,the handle Crashin Chris I do it for fun!??
but back too your original point ,,,, you have too remember that manufacturers have no choice but too take safety and reliability as there course of action......that gives us a big percentage for upgrading? hope that's makes sense? all these stock boats are capable.. of much more speed and power its up too guys like you and me too keep this hobby alive and interesting for everyone ....Thanks for your time
Its looking really nice mate!!! I am thinking about either going with two Seaking 120's or should i go with 2 Seaking 180's ESC;s for my Miss Geico boat which will be still running the stock Dynamite twin motors??? Also, do you have switches for your ESC since the new Seaking 180 or the 120 dont come with an on or off button.
Hi ,,,, yes definitely go with the bigger ESC, s ,,cause I have melted a few whilst experimenting with props. Also get thermal gun too watch your temperatures in the initial trial runs.
Yes Hello James ,,, There has been a delay on my website , ( just got married) I know shame !! However James If you look further James there is a part 3 . No worries mate ,, I have some really great stuff planned for this year ,, at the moment building a new workshop for all the toys.
nice set up i cannot wait to see it run i just picked one of these last week getting my batteries tomorrow and first run will be on Saturday. do you have any idea if i can use a hobby-wing programming card on the stock escs?
No Tim ,,,its just my upgraded escs that have that card ,,,,you wont need a card on the base boat....its a great boat as standard ,,,,,the best Pro boat has ever made ,,,,,shocking power !!! really a big WOW!
The boat I got was damaged but repairable ,,,so the question was ,,,what too repair it with ?? this video is just my choice of components too rebuild it with . The stock boat is awesome....I have just rebuilt it with affordable upgrades..
setting up a full speed run for this boat soon ,,basically its nuts ! and difficult too keep a grip of the power . but ....keep watching ,,,have a look at the new Spartan stuff
Hello Ash ,RC boatbitz in Australia have a big stock of stuff for modifying ,,,,found it very difficult in UK to find very much for fast electrics.. I usually by most of my parts online and direct from China.

Mike, what was your best speed with your Zelos 36? What size props worked out?
Its looking really nice mate!!! I am thinking about either going with two Seaking 120's or should i go with 2 Seaking 180's ESC;s for my Miss Geico boat which will be still running the stock Dynamite twin motors???

Hi ,,,, yes definitely go with the bigger ESC, s ,,cause I have melted a few whilst experimenting with props. Also get thermal gun too watch your temperatures in the initial trial runs.
How did the three bladed props do. How much speed did you gain from stock props?
Yes Hello James ,,, There has been a delay on my website , ( just got married) I know shame !! However James If you look further James there is a part 3 . No worries mate ,, I have some really great stuff planned for this year ,, at the moment building a new workshop for all the toys.
Hi guys ,,,sorry part three is a bit late ,,, its coming ,,,,,our local pond is too shallow for the Zelos twin ,,,,I have ran it ,,,it is crazy
I will say ,,,, props were too small ,,,so,,,,I have upped them a bit
nice set up i cannot wait to see it run i just picked one of these last week getting my batteries tomorrow and first run will be on Saturday. do you have any idea if i can use a hobby-wing programming card on the stock escs?
