Totally agree with Drew Alsup down below. As I work in a hobby shop, first take servo horn off, set your trim to centered and power up boat so the servo centers itself before putting servo back on (no need for transmitter to be on yet). Now center rudder and put servo horn back on. I've seen this happen many times with rc cars also.
I wonder if you guys got a dud. I have this boat and it's one of my favs (I have a dozen or so brushless boats btw). Mine is faster than yours and turns properly both direction. Did you check to make sure the steering rod was centered in the servo arm? Might have to adjust that.
Great interview in the AMA News Letter. Thanks for shearing all the personal info and great pictures. Keep enjoying each other, the hobby and LIFE. I always look forward to your fun, informative and sometimes wacky videos.
I love your videos but this boat is amazing, I have 4 of them and one of them I fitted a 40a esc and a 3600k motor on 3s and it flies and handles so well. Just need to make some adjustments, absolutely love your videos. Thanks from the UK.
My first few RC boats I got as a kid were from Toys R Us, they looked mean but were slow as heck 🤣 the max speed was slower than that taxi.. Amazing what is out there now! Thanks for the vid/channel.
Great reviews, I went with the UDI005. Purchased from Walmart . Needed a bigger boat. Use to play with 80" fiberglass boats with weed Wacker motors back in the 80"s. I'm too old for that crap now and going electric. You actually named your child Popye ? Way cool.....
Hi Nate and Abby, how about reviewing some larger motor gliders over 3' ws. I haven't seen any reviews on them. Maybe they're too tame for most people. Give the idea some consideration if you will. Thanks
Its Hard not to like the murch when Y'all do such good job. I have watched This Channel get better and better. Y'all have in a right left combo that punch on the market .Very Good I didn't like Nate ways back but I believe I see the Love for Fam,the Hobby. I wish 1st Family of RC all the Best
Nate all you have to do is pull the servo horn off and re center the servo with it trimmed in the middle and put it back on. And re arrange what ever is making it lean one way or ad some weights on the other side it should steer good in both directions not just one. Racing boats arent like nascar or circle track cars they should steer both ways just fine.
This lake is great for RC boats! The performance of the Volantex V797-3 was somewhat disappointing. For $100 I'd like my boat to have proper balance and steering out of the box.
Its hard to get more speed on water , then it could be down to the pitch and size of propeller . I had a Graupner Eco speed and a Kyosho viper back in the Days 😏
Well that was a bit of a let down, I was so hoping for more speed and yes the red one yesterday for sure more bang for you buck..I am looking forward to what boat you have coming up....We miss Popeye!!!!
Nice video guys👍 I wish to have a lake near me somwhere, looks like you have a great fun. Have you tried feilun ft012? Its a 3s boat, very fast! Or ft 011 4s both brushless
Noice! Would've been better if the red boat was "carded" or included in the description box... Oh, just to nit pick.....call it "Whirlpool" you guys don't call it donuts when it a drone..... If you're gonna do an airplane maybe a ducted fan one?
Nice and thanks for the red boat tip A...ah..just thinking... that your daughter will morf into the idea of autonomous flight, programs designed at home for later Launching of buttery smooth, creative cinematic photography..... next generation stuff.... so why not be ready for the future.. So for now, you old folks could use your sparky with the Litchi program to get the hang of it. At least expose yourselves to the Idea and share your experience with us kids. Thanks tom
Yea, not overly impressed with what I 👀 or really hear. As compared to the other one. I would say the boats are keeping the geese/ ducks away. Maybe they also sense Nates what feed the geese, we'll ok if you really want to.😆😆😆😆☺. Be positive Nate, say I love the geese,I WANT to feed the geese. 🤗🤗🤗. Review 🖒🖒👍👍.
This boat isn't to fast at all . The red one you can tell it was faster on the video. Any i feel same way . Why would you buy something that don't even so straight.. And how can a place even sale that boat being like that. This is why i like your channel.
That's what's so great about your reviews; you make the RC mistakes so we don't have to! 🤣 Sure is a kewl looking boat, the lines and colors, shame on the CG.
@@drewalsup9200 I've been watching these two for almost 5 years now. I watched them and other channels for a bit. The others were so stuffy. Then Nate ordered the audience to "just go have fun!" So I bought an Arrma Raider, just like he said and haven't looked back yet. Thanks Nate & Abby!
@@steverc8 ive been huge into the hobby of rc since i was in 4th grade when i got my first nitro car an hpi rs43 18 ss kit and have had so many cars and trucks and boats and planes since then i am 25 years old now. I have always wished i knew more people in person who were as big of rc nerds as i am. I always go up and talk to a person if i see them doing anything RC at a local park and i run into a few enthusiasts here and there. I wish my local hobby stores havent all gone out of buisness but i just have to get with the times and order online more. Its great to hear about new people enjoying the hobby. Cheers!
@@drewalsup9200 Go find an RC air field. Lots of those guys are pretty friendly, will help you when yo get stuck, so on and so on. But also, many of them want to get into other RCs besides flying. RCing along sucks, but when you do it with others, it's way more fun. Look at Nate and Abby, they RC together plus they are part of that air club. Cheers back! 🍻
I would buy one, but I got to buy 10 ton's of SMA, cos my cupboards are empty and I still SUCK my THUMB like a big BABY!!!, look mum here comes the Garbage man.
Okie dokie Nate, I don't want to be critical but it's not right and left its starboard and port, after all, you are a Saylor! LOL
Hi Nate and Abby .. I think you will find the CG is biased to the left to compensate the torque of the propeller speaking as an X boat racer ...
Totally agree with Drew Alsup down below. As I work in a hobby shop, first take servo horn off, set your trim to centered and power up boat so the servo centers itself before putting servo back on (no need for transmitter to be on yet).

Ooh - #3 And for a brushless boat no less!
Now that's a dirty lake :D

I’m loving the boat videos!...but as an Airplane guy I’m really feeling left out here 😞....come on Saylors give me some airplanes please!!!!!

I've read many complaints about the steering servo in this boat, I'd say that's why you had the steering issues..
Nice...
I wonder if you could remove the servo arm..center the servo with the transmitter and reattach the arm and make a short recap ?
I was kind of thinking this same thing.
Nate all you have to do is pull the servo horn off and re center the servo with it trimmed in the middle and put it back on. And re arrange what ever is making it lean one way or ad some weights on the other side it should steer good in both directions not just one.

That’s pretty cool
Damn! That thing turns on a dime *AND* leaves change!!! :-O
I'm digging the new format
Might need a trim tab on the skeg to keep the torque steering in check when at higher power levels
I agree.. yesterday’s boat (bang for the buck) was definitely a better all around deal. Great video as always y’all!
Loving the black and green and nice speed not really into boats but I do like this
I have the FT012 and the Helifar H106, Also awaiting the FPV boat you mentioned. I look forward to this mystery watercraft you teased.
Great job handling it
Thank you

Thanks Nate and Abby 🤔 I wonder what you have up your sleave for tomarrow 👍
Adjust the servo horn on the servo. That should help. If there is one. Watching your vids. Im definitely buying a boat for my son and i.
Hi I have been watching your videos now for a while and I think you are great. Thanks keep doing what your doing. 😊
It is a cool boat! I like brushless power! Too bad the CG is a bit off.
How long does the battery last? I'm figuring 15-20 minutes at best. Pls advise. Thank you.
Nooooo, MORE DRONES, nice video, cool boat
I really liked the red one, so I'm looking forward to the one you teased.
GREAT job Saylors! I've seen much better boats you have reviewed!! Thanks for sharing your experience!! 💟👍😘
They have a new version just out the 797-4. But their quality is hit or miss now.
Thanks Saylors, I’m looking for a good boat. Too bad with this one, it looked promising at least. Looking forward to the upcoming boat Nate mentioned!
Boat looks nice...if only the sr65 came in that colour
I do like the color combo
Finding that all my RUclips time is on y’alls Chanel
Early squad where you guys at (:
The Fam Jay Crew sadness
Its hard to get more speed on water , then it could be down to the pitch and size of propeller . I had a Graupner Eco speed and a Kyosho viper back in the Days 😏
Looking forward! Boating 101.. 👍NC MOUNTAINS ❤
nice speed 👍

Nice video guys👍 I wish to have a lake near me somwhere, looks like you have a great fun. Have you tried feilun ft012? Its a 3s boat, very fast! Or ft 011 4s both brushless
Buy the feilun fto12, fast and worth the money.
Love y’alls vids!!!
Love the boat videos!
I saw you guys on the AMA eNews letter .. so cool
Awesome brushless! daddy like lots
Smooth 👍👍😀.
Weren't there any trimtabs in the box?
I can't afford a boat, Heck I can't afford a BABY, how's Popeye?
Noice!
Would've been better if the red boat was "carded" or included in the description box...
Oh, just to nit pick.....call it "Whirlpool" you guys don't call it donuts when it a drone.....
If you're gonna do an airplane maybe a ducted fan one?
throw some rocks in the hull till it lvls out :)
FAST!
Nate's so skinny that his T-shirt design makes his torso look like a Nintendo cartridge
Faster than the ft0011 ?
Hey guys can you get yesterday's red one in green
Sounds cool.
FYI your link isn't working.
Nice and thanks for the red boat tip
A...ah..just thinking... that your daughter will morf into the idea of autonomous flight, programs designed at home for later

Do a review on it.
Ooooo I'm here super early! 😁
Same model but 2023 much faster and better check it out
Awesome! Will do! 👍💯😎⚓️
How can i buy im here in the philippines i want vector sr48 sir
This thing needs fpv. To see the ducks.
Rc race boats are designed to turn right
Apparently not all of them....
Yea, not overly impressed with what I 👀 or really hear. As compared to the other one. I would say the boats are keeping the geese/ ducks away.

seems more like a servo issue to me...
Please answer my question on the LAST video
That's what's so great about your reviews; you make the RC mistakes so we don't have to! 🤣

They do but they do it with good intentions lol sometimes im yelling at the screen trying to tell them how to fix something
