1978 . It looks so so good now never mind 40 years ago . I think if you even looked at that boat in 1978 your head would explode .
Right?
The boats are incredibles...... Top ten.... But, for me, the nitro engines have a special taste.... 😊Very good video.... Love this boats
Heard you talking about Miss USA one also heard you say you were made in 1962 I think I got you beat I was maiden 1956 but yes I do remember that boat....I have been Motocross years back and then RC buggy and truck racing off road at 64 I got the bug for RC boats... Funny how life works.... Never in a million years did I think I would be into this
Ha ha!! I feel the same way, but I love it!
Gotta love those Electric Go Fast boats👍 and eco friendly too.

Who clicks dislike on a video like this? Y'all should be ashamed of yourselves.
I have a Dumas miss circus circus with a 61 Rossi. I wast to convert it to electric. What do you recommend for a motor/esc combo? I need help. Lol
Hi David,
Have you seen my nitro to electric conversion videos? In this series you'll see all the components needed and how to install everything. The individual parts I got from Bill Brandt at Rattlesnake RC who is extremely knowledgeable on everything electric. Take a look at the videos and when you're ready to go for it contact Bill through his website at www.allrc1.com and he'll hook you up!

Hey folks. We turn left in the US right? I love it. The Atlas, Bud, and PayNPak. Great stuff
It's the same age as me
I was driving the light allstar II
Looking good too!
👍👍👍
I got an Insane Fe30 for sale. It gets old after a while.
Too bad... Hope you can find something more interesting for you
OK I like the Lakeridge Paving boat. My brother-in-law is a forman there!! Is this boat a prototype or freelance?
I don't know the origins of this one for certain, but I believe it's a fiberglass hull from rcboat company
@@M5PerfHydros I was more wondering about the paint scheme. Do you know if Lakeridge Paving fully sponsored a boat before? My brother-in-law didn't know, he isnt into boat racing at all.
@@rebelndirt8830 Yes they have sponsored the full size hydroplanes. In our racing series the boats are nearly exact copies (with obvious exceptions) of the original boat. Take a look here for a closer view of the model as well as a short bio of the real race boat;

Very nice video. In this races what lap time system is used?
The laps are not timed
@@M5PerfHydros All by eyes? Not even transponder?
Correct, we do not use transponders here
Hello love the videos. I used to be into gas sport hydros and gas out- riggers. About 15 yrs ago. Do know any one that has a great gas sport Hydro hull kits. Ty

Did Bill Roller build that U-95 ?
Hmm, I don't know but I'll find out. Stay tuned....
@@M5PerfHydros Bill built a u-95 in cincinnati ohio and moved to Phonix Az over 30 years ago ....He sold all his boats n took up flyin rc planes out there ... I remember testing it with him ....Raced it up in michigan at a summer race ....Won every heat ...very fast hull ...
How long are these boats
The nitro boats are 1/8th scale and are between 42 - 45" long. Gas scale is larger, about 54" or so
@@M5PerfHydros cool. I have almost finished building a catamaran with a 25cc 2smoker but it is only 1m long I should have made it abit bigger maybe
Yup that's a bit short, but it should be fun!
@@M5PerfHydros how can I send you a photo to see what you think of my build
Shoot it to my email at scott.meyers24@gmail.com
Lost our conection text me i have questions tim
What size electric motor would you have to have in a 1:8 scale hydro?
I dunno. I'm actually just a nitro and gas guy who pretends to know something about electrics. All the parts for my conversion video were supplied by Rattlesnake RC. Bill has everything you'll need here; www.allrc1.com
Seriously!??? "Gender Neutral Pringles"??? So much for Authenticity...! Lol
