I have an RC airboat I used to take out in the snow. The snow had less drag than water and it wouldn't idle without taking off. Sadly it's been in a state of being rebuilt for 15 years or so.
I used to have a flat bottom "swamp buggy" RC. It was a fan with pusher prop and rudder blade above the hull. It was ;awesome on the snow in the right conditions.
The best use of snow for RC is float planes because they can land and take off from it, instead of only being usable on water. Boating on snow (while fun) just destroys your boat.
Here's a trick I learned when I worked at a ski resort years ago you could wax the bottom of the boat obvious that would work or You can put. Dish soap on the bottom of the bottom of the boat. It will slide really easy.
Fluffy light snow, I did another snow boat video I think 2 years ago and towards the end of the video the snow became wet and heavy and the boat didn't want to go anymore
Sad to see the carnage but this is still awesome! I've been wanting on this vid since your last snow boat run to test the spartan but great video anyway. Have fun out there.🥶
This is so cool can't believe it worked. I bought a latrax prerunner to play with my son 2 years ago. It sucks on thick terrain. I got my son the grave digger Trax this year for Christmas thinking we should be able to play together. This Trax goes in all terrain and is amphibious. He can go everywhere. It isn't as fast as my letrax and because of my mockups it wouldn't ever go as long on 1 battery but, I'm a little torn.... anyhow good job making your own fun out there😅
I was thinking this was a terrible idea until I saw it. You need to prop up(diameter), you aren't putting hardly any load on them in snow compared to water. They do nothing but cavitate(is that even the right word for snow) since snow is mostly air.
I don’t own a speedboat nor do I live on a snowy hill… but if I did! I know what I would be doing this afternoon… why wait for summer to waterski!!! 🤣👍🇬🇧
I didn't see snow travel in the manual ,I'll check again , waiting on parts for my TAYLOIZED VEKTANATOR 5E , gunna be great in the snow , cool video !, just a bunch of shoo goo , will fix that damage
I haven't seen "Snow Boating" sence Craw.erTedsGarague did it 11 years age :) ( link ruclips.net/video/nQiluaApU-A/видео.html ) It's still a mind bending thing to see a boat operating on snow :)
So cool! 2:57 minutes. Another individual is also having fun playing in the snowy parking lot.
Lol I saw that too😂
Yeah, looks like someone is practicing their drifting skills.
I was gonna say did if anyone saw that 😂
Dang u beat me haha
Now this is a first. I’ve never seen anyone do this before.
Awesome!!
At least it didn’t sink
True that 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🤘🤘
2:56 the Prius drifting in the back lmao
So, the question is; is snow boating officially one of the coolest things I've ever seen?
Yes. Yes, it is.
2:57 the sedan drifting in the background lol
That’s why I’m here😂
Never heard of your channel, never heard of snow boating. Interesting concept.
The most impressive thing in this video was the car in the background rallying (2:58).
Bummer hitting the tree , but that was crazy how good it went 😊
Only works with good snow 😁
@@FortekNine I bet
I learn new things every day

looks like fun. I run a brushless fan boat on snow. goes like stink. flat hull and rudder above hull (behind fan)
If you go to 2:55 you can see someone drifting in the background 😂
A drift a day keeps the mechanic away
2:56 nice skid
Anybody else notice the car during donuts in the back 🤣

no? Was this possible?
It's really amazing.
There was even a snow drift in the back...
everyone had a great time.😊
Super cool to see.
Great video!
I've never had an RC boat. How will you fix the tree damage? Can you replace it like a body shell?
Never considered running a boat in snow. Have to give it a try.
One of the best rc RUclipsrs 💪
Wow, who knew you can do this with a RC Boat. Excellent video 👏🏻👏🏻
Haha, racing boats in the snow very nice.
The best use of snow for RC is float planes because they can land and take off from it, instead of only being usable on water.
Boating on snow (while fun) just destroys your boat.
I love my Spartan
Me too, Its a fun boat!
The car in the back drifting is a mood
Great video this my favorite channel. That was cool video
509 all the way baby my home channel in the RC world .
Thank you for the nice comment bro 😁

The car drifting at 2:55😂
Is there a certain condition of snow for this to work like in fluffy light snow or heavy wet stuff or does it not matter?
Fluffy light snow, I did another snow boat video I think 2 years ago and towards the end of the video the snow became wet and heavy and the boat didn't want to go anymore
This is pretty epic lol..I'd have never thought that would work
Wipe your hulls down with a good dose of Pledge. It works wonders on plastic sleds. Lemon scent optional.
I love the way at minute 2:56 there's somebody in the background doing donuts in the car
My motors would literally melt lol my props are way too high pitched for this action, lol
Sad to see the carnage but this is still awesome! I've been wanting on this vid since your last snow boat run to test the spartan but great video anyway. Have fun out there.🥶
I think if you lower the prop then it might work, I was going to try the mext day but the snow already melted 😫
Well, people ride snowmobiles on the lakes so its only fair that boats get to play in the snow too
Amazing bro 👍
Hmmm, 3D print a new prop designed for plowing snow. Airboats would be cool too.
Wow that is awesome
🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
Super cool 👍
Nice video brotha! Sorry about the damage, sick doughnuts at the end 😁
Thanks brotha! 😁
That's car back there drifting that turn.
Air boats are even better they keep going
So the motors use the water to cool off? The snow doesn’t help?
雪の上でボートを走らせようなんて、よく思いつくなぁ！素晴らしい👍
This is so weird to watch. That's awesome.
I think this is freaking sweet dude. Honestly, RC cars don’t do it for me, but this does. This is so cool.
This is so cool can't believe it worked. I bought a latrax prerunner to play with my son 2 years ago. It sucks on thick terrain.

About time YO EXCELLENT 🥶💥💥💥
you just blew my mind!! I wish I had thought of this, epic
Oh sh@+ practice at 2:57 😂
Wait hold up....... what!? I didn't know you could do this!!! ima 3d print 1 right now and fpv this thank you for the idea!!! ❤
I was thinking this was a terrible idea until I saw it.
You need to prop up(diameter), you aren't putting hardly any load on them in snow compared to water. They do nothing but cavitate(is that even the right word for snow) since snow is mostly air.
I didn't even think this was possible 💀
I wonder how many people came buy later and wonder what made those strange tracks in the snow😉
So rad dude 🏄🏼♂️💯
This is freakin cool as heck! Think it will work with a catamaran style boat? Awesome stuff dude!👊🏼😎💯✌🏼
Lmao 🤣 this be cool 🤣👍
I don’t own a speedboat nor do I live on a snowy hill… but if I did! I know what I would be doing this afternoon… why wait for summer to waterski!!! 🤣👍🇬🇧
Did you go to Hobby town and score any of the 20% off everything sale??
@@valiant7357 I did, got myself the arrma furry 😁 sad to see the store close
TO COOL
Dual drive v-hull will work
Are you doing this at Plantes Ferry?
Yup 😁
I was day dreaming about it this would work the other day!!! Damn Google hacking my thoughts man.
That's crazy! 😅
We get that good good in the 509
Try a bigger prop, longer blades for deeper snow
Np weld, will do it
Who's gonna volunteer to try this full scale? We need a follow up video to compare results.
I guess the motor doesn't need water cooling in cold weather?
I didn't see snow travel in the manual ,I'll check again , waiting on parts for my TAYLOIZED VEKTANATOR 5E , gunna be great in the snow , cool video !, just a bunch of shoo goo , will fix that damage
They need to rewrite the manual 😅 email me so we can get together sometime
Love it 👍 I also did a video of my Miss Geico on snow a couple of weeks ago; in case you want to have a look 👀 😂
Thank you, It's fun 😀 I'll check them out
I always wondered if this would work, AWESOME! 💯🔥
Only reason I like snow.. I can run my rc cat year round..
How the hell is nobody talking about the drifting Prius at 2:55 ???
Uh they are
I realized after commenting@@tenncutt
Looks like a ford contour long roof.
Could we do this with a real sized boat then?? 😮
😂. Well if it goes well for you I'll dump the checkmate in the driveway and catch up with ya 😂😂😂
Aint no way dude
Hello, but the esc not overheat? Saluti
Bigger prop nd I think it would work a lil better 🤔
First
Throw on a 50mm 3 blade
まさか 雪で走るとは 思っていなかったです 壊れるだろうと覚悟持って試してくれて ありがとう！元気もらいました！(。´Д⊂)ワイルドなスピードですよ(笑)
You're such a snowboater
Главное всё делать на ходах!
Try put a small fan or make a cooler somehow
Was that a drifting Prius in the parking lot?? 😂😂😂😂
if you want more speed. spray some wd40 on the bottom of the boat
I'm glad where I live it's 30 degrees Celsius 365 the snow is a sh@t I've seen it once and don't want tk see it again 😂
I have an air boat just waiting for the snow
The motor frozen of m'y rc plane if i crash in the snow , thats probably why the wait ;)
Just fabricate another cover with air vent
Next time weight the front of the V hull a little to keep it from rising in the snow so much.
It would be WAY faster if you our snowboard wax on it. Not even joking
A hull is only 179$ lol
Do it with a real boat now.
i wanted to like but im not a fan of people who blatantly show off you need to quit your snowboating dude lol
Jeeps suck! Should've bought a 4RUNNER!
Not bright
More creative content. I'll check back at 1M view
