Thanks @Mya-2022 worth a kidney, I think!! Def get one if you can..RC boating is such a great hobby!!👍🏻

Its called hatch tape..theres many places to find it..this is the one I use rcboatbitz.com/product/renfrew-waterproof-tape/

Hey bud I use Hockey Tape from amazon and it works great and its less expensive.

Thank you !

@petergoodwin2465 thank you!! You sound like me..lots of boats..dont know which way to turn first haha..thanks for watching and sub👍🏻

@texe46rc16 thanks man, yes I love it!

Hi @wally6629 most ESCs have a 3 wire cord with flat 3 pin plug that plugs into channel 2 of the receiver. The Esc’s normally have a built in 5.5-6v BEC that gives the receiver its power and then when you plug the servo into the receiver it gets its power from the receiver!! Hope that makes sense!! Just make sure the esc is outputting these low voltages from the 3 wire cord…otherwise you may blow your receiver and servo. Thanks for watching👍🏻

Thanks @Barry843 ! Much appreciated👍🏻

Thanks @RCplamodel ! Its a great boat to drive.. alot of fun. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

Glad the video helped @tripletrc5654 ! Yes the 8mm lines are so good, and that you fixed the heat issue. Thanks for watching!

I’m considering increasing the size of the holes in my boat since they are a tad too small. My only concern is with them being larger that water can get in or that the lines could be easily pulled out/move after a crash. Anyone have issues with leaks and if so is a silicone adhesive the solution? Highest temp my ESC has reached was 140 but more cooling is always a plus.

Yeah thanks @bdanielcal4608 Ive seen them. Might have to get one..as you say for adjustments on the water!! Cheers mate!👍🏻

Thank you @NevskiyVladislav I will try the strut deeper and see if it gets more speed

Good stuff Steve!! Thanks for watching!

I have the same issue. Someone who works at my local hobby shop had the same issue as well and ended up replacing that rubber with a piece of heat resistant silicon.

That has to be from excessive vibration somewhere bro. I would bench test and make sure everything is lined up properly and possibly try a diffrent flex cable. If that doesn't work it may be the Teflon liner in the stuffing tube spinning in which you can just take it out and super glue in place. Hope this helps brother.

Before I even did my maiden voyage I noticed the motor did not line up with the end of the flex shaft well and was definitely going to mess up the end of the stuffing tube if I ran it like that, so I would certainly check that, u can see when the flex shaft enters the coupler how much it has to move from center to enter the coupler, I dremeled the motor mount to adjust but I jus saw iron clad simply shim the stuffing tube to change the angle, good luck!

Thanks for your comment Jason..not sure of your RC experience, but there are a lot of people who are new to the hobby, and this may be their first boat. They may not understand how / why to do an upgrade like this, so this video gives them knowledge and confidence to drill a hole in their brand new, expensive boat. Thanks for watching!

Hey thanks Vinnie!!! Yes next time out I want to put a straight turn fin on it and get some more straight lines in. Im sure I can get into the low to mid 40’s with a few prop change experiments. Thanks for watching!

Hey John, just clarifying…do you mean the pick up on the rudder itself, or the extra pipe pick up, I’m running??

Hi Mate im on Bayside

Awsome 👍

Thanks @Daiciu Apostol, I will give that a try and see what speed difference it may make. Appreciate you watching and commenting👍🏻

@@marxboatworx I hit the🛎

Hey @Dr. Jet, thank you for your comment!! Yes they are such a fun structure to build and run..cant wait to get her out on second run and try some different props and try and get a mid 40’s mphr speed out of her. Think Big B did a similar speed with his. Maybe if I prop down a bit it might spool up a bit more..always a fine line between prop size and rpm’s. BG4L!

@Cozy RC thanks for watching! Yes I had fun re- rigging this, and it ran great..a little more tuning and some runs to do in it yet to see what its full potential is. Sub’d to yours now👍🏻

@@marxboatworx Enjoy the fine-tuning and thank you for your sub 👍

Yes its pretty cool and very useful! Thanks for watching

Haha @Jus Rc!!! Didnt have it that day…yes needed it though!! Thanks for the sub! Cheers

Yes mate, easy fix there..fun trying to make things work over and above factory though!! Thanks for watching!

Easy, yes. Expensive, also yes.

Yes, lots to learn with Rc boats Dennis, thanks for the sub and for watching!👍🏻

Thanks man. Yes really loving this boat…! Thanks for watching!👍🏻

@ifly65 yeah may not be on all builds, some might be perfect already, but if youve fitted larger flex you will have done it right!!👍🏻

Yes Berry, you are right. Im wanting to see what I can get out of the stock set up first…with some fine tuning etc..but its begging for upgrades..so yes some bigger packs then 6S motors and esc’s👍🏻

Thanks Trey!! Yes, looking forward to doing some more running of this boat and see what we can squeeze out of it! Originally it had 3414 triples on it. In this video I changed them up to a pair of 3818. Seemed to like it!! A bit to get out of the hole but once she gets a grip, its rocket time! Im in Australia so our local RC Boat Bitz has these. They ship O/S too rcboatbitz.com/product/38mm-3-blade-cnc-prop-3818/ rcboatbitz.com/product/38mm-3-blade-cnc-prop-reverse-3818r/ Cheers man

@@marxboatworx im trying to figure out if those props will work for my Miss gieco 36".

@@marxboatworx i think i found rhe same boat you have on another site. Its yellow and labeled SAGA. Im terying to figure out if its a good buy or not. Dragon Hobby Saga.

@@treyrahman they might work on the Geico. I have a pair of detounged 45 x 1.4 pitch dual blade props I run on my Geico 36

@@treyrahman send me the link so I can have a look!👍🏻

Thanks for watching! Im the same if you cant run your boat, then just as good watching others run theirs!!!

Yes @wonderkook just seeing what I can get out of it stock. But a motor and ESC upgrade will get some speed out of her…and being such a narrow hull, hopefully wont have so much potential to flip!👍🏻

Thanks for your support my friend! Its not up to the pizazz of a Big B production, but having fun. Sorry, it was a bit long, but never mind. So stoked how it ran. Shame you cant find one over there Its like the Veles..at the end, with heavier batteries was tripping over with high battery COG. Will try to see what I can squeeze out of her stock before I start Big B-ing it..haha. What's the biggest 29mm motor available?? A 2970? Might even put some 36mm motors in maybe?🤔 Ended up using my go pro chesty harness with iphone mount. seems to work ok!

This was also sold by Hobbyking about 7 years ago its long been discontinued, its a chinese made boat thats a rip off of a german hull like alot of the chinese made boats. I can direct you where to get the real hull, Hydro Marine de makes it, called the Intruder MKII Double cockpit costs 269 euros (VAT Inc for europe) so should be 218 euros for the GFK(Fibreglass) version theres also kevlar inlay and CFK(carbon) version more expensive though. They also have a smaller (veles size) cheaper version called the Intruder S twincockpit.

Thank you @OS RC for the info man, I will go take a look. Least they’re still available if anyone wants one! Thank you for checking in👍🏻

What boat is the fastest?

@@Beardown38 The Geico 36, both stock and upgraded!👍🏻 thanks for watching

Thanks man and thanks for sub @Real World RC ! Yes its a mean boat to get tuned in!! Put it is an adrenaline pumper!! I agree

Hi Chris, thank you for your thoughts. I agree the double input line Big B did on Ironclad does work..I will be doing on mine too. This is still separate to the hole size in the transom (BTW these hulls are ABS plastic, not fibreglass). If you don’t drill it out, you still have restricted flow into the boat. As the hole size is only going up by 1mm diameter, the hole is so easy to drill out..so simple. There should be not risk, but great reward! Happy boating

@@marxboatworx hello my rc friend,thank you for the info ,when it is plastic it’s way easy er than fiber glas,becous that’s always a litle bit tricky,so wat you say is when I drill the hole some bigger than u have more better flow in the hosses?!?!ok !!if u say so !!when it necercery I can drill it always!!!but at the moment it has a nice consistent flow,u can see it on top of the hull ,it cools so much better!!!I am happy that u not angry!!!This is also not the goal,but in this hobby ther is always somthing to learn for evry one!!!👍

Yeah mate what’s your solution? Been waiting pins and needles here

Id go the V2..a good all around fun fast boat. Then go the impulse

@@marxboatworx picked up the V2 after work yesterday. White on. Going to go over it today and maybe yesterday's it later on. It's so damn hot out though. 100 today in MA.

Congratulations!! You’ll have a ton of fun with it!! 👍🏻 yes am watching the heat waves you guys have over there atm!! Not good. Very similar to our Australian summers recently😬

Impulse does not self-right. If you ask me that is a mandatory feature as it will flip just from its own power let alone waves and wind.

Cheers @MrCubflyer …yes this was a maiden first time out. Learnt a lot about trim and battery placement after this and haven’t had a stack since!!
