the blast makes a good recovery boat because of the prop steering system .build a pvc fork for it and use it to rescue the spartan when it flips over . theres a video of my blast rescue rig on my channel.
The Jet boat is my recovery rig because there is no prop for the lines to get stuck on. Really don't like how L-O-U-D the blast is. Tried to replace the brand new parts to see if I got a lemon, but nope, still loud. Even called Traxxas, the rep watched the video, and said that's how loud it is. Thinking about gutting the system and putting in brushless.
Did you ever figure out why the blast was so noisy? I just got one and it sounds the same. Almost like the drive shaft is out of balance. Also, I knew that the lake looked familiar, I grew up in Coos Bay and spent a lot of time on that lake fishing.
Just wanna say im loving the videos so far man, and the park your at is a really good park and has some good trails i live pretty close, but keep up the good work and i bet this channel will blow up
Wow thank you! We have a huge passion for rcs and with my wife editing the videos and us having waaaaay to many rcs (not really🤣) and also living in such a beautiful place with awesome scenery everywhere we go! Thank you for watching and be sure to keep your eye out, we have 3 Losi mini b's brand new in the box we will be giving away once we hit 1k subs!!!!!
There is not, it is from the coupling system. I tried several and called traxxas, they said it was supposed to sound like that🤣 I told the guy to find a new job if he thought the blast was supposed to sound like that 🤔. He didn't take to kindly to that and that was the end of the call lmao. Don't buy the blast buy a spartan, m41 or a proboat instead. The blast is complete garbage, the esc doesn't have lipo cutoff and are so far outdated as well.
Thanks for the advice, ill make sure to grease it before I take it out again😃 I have the dynamite rc grease gun so it should be pretty simple. Thanks for watching🙂
Not the shafts, this was the first run, there's something wrong with the boat. I have a dynamite grease gun and greasing it did nothing unfortunately. Thanks for the comment, it is very important to grease the shafts every run you are correct though😃
Have you ever played with the Majesty 800S RC Boat? I have. I think the Traxxas Blast has the identical 550 motor. So, I feel your pain on ruining a peaceful morning at the lake. 😔
Your other boat is a blast ! 😉
I just came across your channel trying to find some fun videos of the Traxxas boats. Love your videos, I liked and subscribed.
Very nice Video..! I love the slowmotions 🙂

Sometimes pumps when captivated with Air will make noise like that. Wonder if there is air in cooling system.

I clicked on this as soon as I saw the Findlay. 😂
Findlay force for life!!!!!!! I'm wearing a Findlay shirt and hat today🤙
What were you running in that Traxxas blast boat????
Eel lake just north of Winchester bay
@@RCdune ok,what running gear in the boat???,motor,esc,batt????
That sounds either like a bronze/copper coupler as their way too noisy or if the boat has a solid shaft it needs plenty of grease

Sounds like a nitro engine!!
Great video, deciding between the blast and spartan boat for my son. Do you know what the range of the radio is on the M41?
Thanks in advance.
Better grease those shafts!

Sorry you will surely be disappointed. Not any blast as for me !? Traxxas should be ashamed!
Blast is a pos... loud clunky and slow , Walmart $50 boat is faster.
Truth!!!!!🤘

Not the case cus how does that make sense
This boat sucks. Do not buy. Doesn't seal. No power. No reverse. No self righting. Expensive for a mobile anchor. Do not buy.
Agree one million percent!!!!!!
You are hateful toward your boats !
There toys😆 play with them how you want. I don't hate my rc's..... Thanks for watching and the odd comment🤙
