Enjoyed the vid Kev! Never hurts to give the tuning procedures in the manual a little review! 😬 Only thing wrong with that SW2 is that those turn fins on the outer edges of the transom need to be adjusted downward. The closer they are to 90 degrees vertical, the sharper the boat will turn, especially while up on plane…could also double check that your steering dual rate is maxxed🤘🏻🤘🏻
Also he had the little plastik thing on the rudder... thats why it did not turn well. It is just for protection, so it is meant to be removed before driving the boat.
I had a same buddy like you have Stemp..he passed away in Feb at the age of 46...you made me remember my days with my best friend! Keep spreading smiles and laughter with the world! cheers
The energy with you and Stemp is contagious. Every new video with him in it is smiles all around.
Didn't know I wanted an RC boat, but you guys made this thing look like a total blast.
Oh man. Didn't think I'd be getting a like from Kevin. Thanks for introducing me to the hobby ages ago!
They downplayed how good this boat actually is
IKR? I was grabbing my wallet…
How dare you call it a boat!?!?
ITS A SUBMARINE!!
Xmas Eve and day and I am going to have to do it is not a
Thats the sheer screw,they are supposed to break when they his something so it don't damage the boat,it's plastic. Put a zip tie in its place for quick easy fix.
thanks bro. didnt have any on me
@@KevinTalbotTV I will send you by mail XDD
ohhhhhh
@@KevinTalbotTV hi kevin can't wait to see the outcast 4s video
I hate your disrespect to these RC models. Well yeah that boat did sinc. Every tought how bad the batteries are for your river?
You and stumpy have a wonder back and forth dialogue!! It’s obvious y’all are good friends and the conversation comes natural!! I love it!!! 🤜🤛
What you call "some sort of diffuser" are the trim tabs. They control the attitude of the boat. Set them up, nose/bow goes up and speed does too (conversely, setting them down, makes the nose/bow go down). Too much up will result in the boat getting airborne at high speed and flip spectacularly 😁. Both of the boats were running too much nose down (running 'wet', as a boater would say), hence their inability to attain the advertised speed, and even, in some instances, "submarining" when hitting a wave. Prop shaft angle and depth also has great influence in the boat's attitude. My guess is, they came with a very conservative setup from the factory.
thanks dude!
@@KevinTalbotTV the procedure here is, make the prop shaft parallell with the hull’s keel.
To do this , place the hull on a table, loosen the bolts that hold the strut (the thing that holds the prop shaft) and force it into a stack of wood bits, as high as it has to be, to match the height if the transmission. Then tighten it. You now have a perfectly aligned thrust axis. Now, just get the trim tabs way up (so that they do not touch the water) and work your way down, until the boat is as fast as possible, whithout getting airborne.
@@KevinTalbotTV Also, I forgot to mention: before getting into prop shaft/trim tab angle, one must observe the center of gravity. In a boat such as this, it it between 28%-32% measured from the transom. In this case 36" x 30% = 10.8". Move the batteries fore and aft to achieve a proper CG, like in an helicopter or plane😁.
The best way to ascertain a boat is levelled, is to hit some waves. When hitting a wave, the boat will jump, and, if correctly balanced, will land levelled. If it lands tail first -> CG too aft. If it lands bow first -? CG too forward. Simple!
It is this tuning that makes running boats so much fun. And then, once you got the balance right, it is time to get into propellers! The fun never ends!
”Running wet” - learnt something new today 👍
This video is the perfect example of what this hobby is all about , glad to see you boys had fun it was great to watch.
The Kevin & Stempy show is the best thing to have happened to TH-cam! I die laughing when these two legends are together. 😂 Kevin, when are you coming to Monster Jam in America? I hope to meet you & your Monster Truck one day. I'm a big fan of you & Monster Jam. Stay awesome!
hope to come at some point!!
@@KevinTalbotTV That would be EPIC!
Would love to see Kev here for monster jam... Ive watched the dream truck be built from the beginning
Please do a video about F1 powerboat RC boat
@@KevinTalbotTV I’ll be there if ya do! Would be epic!
These boat vids with you and stimpy give me anxiety.
He doesn’t have a whole lot of get up and go, goal setting mentality does he? Ha. Quite the contrast with you two.
Kev, so many people look up to you and what you do, keep doing what you are doing no matter what anyone says
The last time I watched you two take the boat on the water I died laughing, and I hoped for some more. Today's the day... and you did not disappoint.
Great Video Kev. love it when you and Stemp play with boats. I have 2 of those boats and never had a problem steering them. I did have to adjust the trim on the remote
If you do another rc boat video, you should bring a fishing net and extension pole. It might be able to retrieve a sunken boat.
You and Stemp are just too made for each other. Need more videos with him!
Dude watching you and Stemp have fun is the most uplifting thing of my week. I literally live for those days. Just good old fun with your best pals. Love your videos Kev, you’re the best influence!
you both together makes my day,, just got out of hospital after a rough couple days,, ty kev and stemps
Can't go wrong with a boat video. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
You also still have the rubber cover on the rudder, if you take that off it might help, mine turns pretty well.
He takes it off at 11:05
I’m gonna invent an inflation device for RC boats in case they sink.
I’m thinking a balloon hooked to a CO² cartridge 😏
Maybe I could hook it to a pressure sensor to auto inflate if it ever goes more than 6 feet underwater 🤷♂️
Wonder if there’s a market for that sort of thing
vids are always the most fun. 2 mates sharing a hobby and having a laugh. Puts a smile on my face every time!
You 2 and boats is just hilarious. I was so glad to see another boat video as I was crying with laughter on the previous one. You and stumpy = great laughs 😃
When I see boats AND Stempy, I know it's gonna be an awesome video! Love watching you guys have fun and having a laugh 👌
Honestly I think that looks absolutely EPIC!!
Some of your best content is out on the water with stemp in that wee boat. The mayhem and random hijinks that you 2 create with those boats is pure content.
Keep living the fun life.
Absolutely nothing better than two fellas having a good laugh I don't care what you do with these im here for the laughter
That was an insane vid Brother Kev!😆The Sonicwake is one of the best RTR's to date imo! Yours needed some major tuning out of the box it looks! I've been running boats for 25 years and that one was ill handling for sure! I have two of them and they perform killer once tuned! The screw that came out was a nylon breakaway screw to save the boat transom of you hit something or snag a stick in the water. The allen key definitely worked for a quick fix! LOL Awesome vid though bro!!!
thanks bro, ill have a play with it!!
Kev I think one of the problems with the steering is those two fins were faced down into the water too much but if you lifted them up a little it would help it steer more. BTW I am a long-time fan I always love your videos!!! I might have a boat for you to test out.
The rudder guard was still on also.
Are you referring to the Turning fins or the trim tabs?
wicked video great vibes love it when you two are on the water nothing but laughs
Yes love these type of these videos you both are the true meaning of the hobby need more laughter in the world 👍🏻
The video was amazing I love rc stuff.
Personally, I'm not a big fan of RC Boats but seeing you use it makes me think that I should have one now, which one would you recommend? This one? Or another one?
proboat jet jam or flytecs version are the best starter boats in my opinion
Feluin from banggood.
Check out the Traxxas M41. We reviewed it a while ago and it's a great boat!
The new Recoil 2 comes with lipo and charger, not too expensive of an investment to try it out. And its turning performance is super sharp.
Recoil 2 shreddy or heatwave
Unrelated to the video, but wanted to thank you Kev if you read this by chance! The other day I had a grub screw with just blue loctite but I could not get it freed up, remembered your trick about heating it up with a soldering iron and worked like a charm!
Love the friendship between kev and stempy these vids are absolutely brilliant 👌🤟👍
Can you do a torture test on the slash 4x4 vxl
Hard to do a torture tests when the axles snap off like a twig
True lol I was just thinking of buying one but figured kev might give one a go maybe.
@@bluemoonpokemon7000 he already did
@tyse milicia how long ago?
@@bluemoonpokemon7000 I mean he has doen a bunch the latest was like 6 months to a year ago
Kev, the video was loads of fun. You should try a dual motor cat hull boat, like the TFL 1133 1040mm (Banggood special). Then you could put bigger motors for maximum speed, and mix the rudder with the ESCs on the radio for awesome thrust steering.
Love it. Thanks for the laughs Kev!!!!
Love it. Two bloke being kids and Having a laugh.
Not into RC boats but you two on the river in a inflatable is totally golden!! Cheers for the laughs dudes
This summer videos with a boat and your friend is one of my favorit ❤️ I really like to watch how you enjoy with your friend on the river) take care of him, because he's good guy 😃
Miss these boat vids! Thanks Kev!
love the video kev very funny and entertaining i dont sit and laugh through nearly the whole video ever but today i did!!...thanks bro!
I love the fact that you are sharing varied RC disciplines (cars, heli, planes, boats, unclassifiable 😂). I am tying to do the same on my small channel 😁 as I like all of them too
You guys make me laugh, and I needed that. Thanks Kev and Stempy! Carry on.
About that 'screw' in the rudder you thought you lost: The rudder is supposed to have a sacrificial plastic screw in the hole. When the rudder hits something hard, the plastic gets cut off and the rudder flips back *before* it rips the entire rudder assembly out of the rear of the boat.
Adjusting the steering of an unknown boat is a bit of black art, but with the rudder on the right side, it's probably easier to make it to turn tightly when turning right. In any case, I suggest moving the batteries, so the center of gravity is moved further back. This usually also shifts the steering pivot point further back. If the center of gravity is too far forward, so the hull is very 'wet', it may start pivoting about a point at the front of the boat - a bit like your forklift steers with the back wheels. I'm not sure if that was what you were experiencing.
Lowering the turn fins ('scalpels') further into the water, can make the hull 'slide' less in turns. Some of your jumps where the hull skidded out with the rear could probably be eliminated by doing this. However... Lowering more stuff into the water, also slows down the boat. More than you might think.
I've never used trim tabs, but I understand they can be used to lift the boat further up out of the water, making it go faster. I would also imagine it requires you to move the CoG *even* further back.
✌🏻😎🏴I was going to say & suggest some of the same stuff & now I don’t have to 👍🏻
Kevin I was just watching your videos when you uploaded. You are such a good rc dude! Kev'd it!
Yes!! Loved it 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks Kev for yet another great video and a good laugh 🤣
Brilliant video Kev. Sorry the first boat got Stempped but like you say if it puts a smile on your face it's the best thing in the world and you both had some big smiles.
Hey, Kev. I really like that you're posting videos of boats now. Just a friendly piece of advice though, you need to put some tape on the hatch to keep the water out of the inside of the boat, in case it flips over. It's usually sold as "hatch tape" at hobby stores, or you can also just buy "hockey sock tape at sporting goods stores.
you two lads have amazing chemistry :)
word of advice to people who have gotten a new rc boat, put some expando foam in the nose so when it inevitably tries
to sink the foam will save it, its helped me many times
You guys crack me up even making me smile while suffering with covid keep it up!
I was looking for onr thanks for the info and the techno bable THANK YOU KEVIN ! ! ! !
Always a fun time when you guys are on the boat haha 🤙🏼
always a good one when the stemsta and kev go out on the River:) Absolutely EPIC...
Stempy and Kev on a boat is still the funniest video EVER!!! I damn near died of laughter the first time!
Hey kev!!! That small boat had the guts but no clip retention for the important part!! The large one showed some potential but needed a lot of space to turn. Maybe if you cut down the two extra stabilizers it would help. Great vid, keep them coming!!!
These boats only perform once on plane. It's turns like absolute garbage when you're going slow but once you get up on plane it's ridiculous.
Bro you and Stemp have such a good vibe it's hilarious. Keep up the good work Kev!
Love these videos with stemp, good chemistry for the camera :)
Bought this boat for the owner of our company that I broker an office for.
4s doesn’t get out of the hole very fast. 6s rocks. 5-6 min run time.
Self righting has worked very well. Great boat.
I asked for more rc boat videos. Ty 🎉👍
two full grown men having fun is priceless😂
Give it less trim tab. It runs bow-down, which is why it's slow and why it's hard to steer.
Get a digital angle finder and place the boat on the work bench upside down. Zero the angle finder lengthwise on the bottom at the stern. Now set each trim tab to 3 degrees up, or down as it were when the boat is upside down. You can also try 5 degrees, but start with 3. This will free up the bow and make the boat run a lot cleaner. Also, see where the balance point is. Should be around 28% forward of the transom.
Also pro tip for boats, balancing the boats and also adjusting the prop angle and plane angle helps a lot with balance, steering and speed, AND TAKE THE COVER OFF THE RUDDER BECAUSE THEY ARE WATER COOLED AND THE WATER INTAKE IS THROUGH THE RUDDER
I absolutely love these boat videos!
This is going to be epic to watch when i get home lol! Love your channel!
This video made me laugh out loud- thoroughly enjoyed you guys messing around on the water
Kev ya got me really excited about the submarine vid nice work!!
That intro had me in tears!" It's gone" 😂😂
Such a great time guys 😎! Thanks for sharing!
You guys are absolutely nuts Kevin. Just plain nuts. You two are killing me. Always a good laugh watching your channel.
Greta seems more upset than usual! Good job Kev!!
i love the volantex Vector boat, mine had the same issue with the lid coming off, definitely needs some tap haha, i nearly sunk mine too! 😂
Me too, I broke the little prong that holds it at the front, so I 3D-printed a super thick one in carbon fiber reinforced nylon :D
Dude I get so happy when I see a new Kev video, they are always so nostalgic!!
Brilliant vid had me in stitches when the boat was popping out the water. I even jump at the first second one
I have been watching you since you have started and every video I watch makes my day better
You and stemp are nuts! Lol that was another great boat video. Thanks for the laughs.
My god, I havent laughed like this in a long freakin time! This is your best yet Kevin in my opinion!!! Dont change a thing!!
You guys put a smile on my face every time you laugh, thanks so much!!
These 2 guys should have thuer own "prime time television show"!!!!!
Great fun!!!!!
best video ever mate, you guys kill it together
😂... you two together so funny ... love it 🤣
Yes! I’ve been waiting for a another boating video with stempy haha
Them boats 🚤 had the self lefting and self southing action! It works very well and turns them into submarines. Will be fun to see you find them with actual submarine drone vehicle.
2 guys just having fun...great video!!!
Kev's videos are brilliant but when stempy and a boat are in the thumb nail you know it's going next level!
Thanks for the video, I feel like a fool but didn't know that Rubber part on the rudder came off. I thought it was made to help keep the rudder safe.
These videos are always so hilarious!
that was a kind of joy that money cant buy.., great playing man.,thankyou for sharing
😆 you’s had more fun throwing it in and seeing where it was gonna pop up?? Excellent 👍 I’ve got a cheap twin propeller one and it goes like stink…there great fun 🤩
I have the previous version on my channel, It's amazing, it steers on a dime and does 50mph. But its also not an out-runner motor. Guess they should have left it how it used to be. Great vid man, I'm glad I didn't buy that version. This is exactly why I like you testing new products. I remember when they released this version that you are showing here and I thought to myself I should have waited to buy. Glad I bought when I did.
Brilliant video mate nice one lots of power bud 👍
Well that brightened up my day , cheers for the video 😃
Great video
Love the new rc car shelving system 👌🏻
You guys look like your having such a good time! That’s awesome! Wish I had friends like that
I reckon the biggest smile I ever see kev has is with the rc boats
that was funny and scary at the same time! crazy time... as for the steering i know people made suggestions already but i wonder when cavitation bubbles come into play.
Just what I have been waiting for! Boat content!
nothing like the best duo on youtube lol
OOPPSSSS .. Love the start
IT'S NIIIICCCCCCCCEEEEEE !!!!
Well if nothing else at least hanging with Stemp is always a laugh.
The razor blades are called skegs, like on the bottom of a surfboard, they give you directional stability to keep you going in a straight line and the other flaps are trim tabs to level out the boat once it's on plane.
ON a full sized boat if you have more people (or 1 tubbo) on the left, the boat will ride low on that side. You use the trim tabs to give more lift to that side making the boat level.
remove those skegs at the back and it'll turn on a dime. They are there to keep the boat running straight at high speeds. If you want to do donuts etc take em off.
