@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 idk, I heard WL toys has gone downhill hard. And I've seen several reviews recently, showing such shortcomings with electronics. Happy with my MJXs tho
Well that's unfortunate. I was actually looking at getting this boat on sale because of the looks. Glad I never bought it after seeing this, but I would think an electronics swap would fix the issue. Still, not good for out of the box. Thanks for sharing!
Well, I've got a feeling I was just unlucky. From past experience, Wltoys have been reasonable issue wise. This is the first time I've ever come across a problem like this. 👍
@scaleworksRC I've returned it to the seller for a refund. They never offered a replacement. Otherwise, I would have taken it. Instead, they did the usual eBay seller trick of offering silly refunds until I got fed up and just started a return. 😅
WOW , control issues aside, thats a frikken tough boat, and the battery didnt move either!
On the second bank strike the batt did move forward and break a small tab off the inside. But that's it! I felt sure the hull was going to be cracked!
Nice boat and crash proof
🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
Very crash proof! In fact, it's its wife proof!
@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 😅🤣😂😅🤣😄
I couldn’t stop it 😂😂that just made my day and it sucks you have a defective model
The misses felt vindicated when it turned out it was the boat! 😅😆. Yeah gutted, must be a sucker for punishment. But I think I'd like to try again. 🤔
it really feels like some of those chinese brands don't do any proper testing and quality control.
I think I was unlucky and got a bad one. On the balance of probabilities, normally, I would imagine they are reasonably reliable. 🤔👍

Mine leaked crazy.
That's no good. I didn't run mine long enough to find out. 👍
With this boat if it starts leaking grease the shaft and it fixes it
@IsaacSchultz-lz8jc alot of rc boats eventually leak through the prop shaft. Jet boats especially.

@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 Yeah, hopefully it was just a bad unit. Gonna try for an exchange or not worth the hassle?

@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 Dang, that's how it goes sometimes
This is the first time I’ve seen this issue with this boat on RUclips at least so I’m leaning towards a faulty esc/reciver combo
