This mega behemoth of a boat is called the "Rockstar".. and I have owned it for more than a 1/2 decade. For the last 4 years.. it has sat basically idle.. not seeing any water. Today that will change. The 2 Stoke Gas powered engine is only 26cc, and at top speed (stock) this boat can only go about 40mph. Slow, many will say... and I agree. In todays standards an electric, 6s 22.2v Lipo charged small boat can KILL this larger boat in speed - but there really need to be something said about the nuances of running, tuning.. and dialling in a gas powered engine. There is always a risk that you will find yourself stranded in the middle of a pond, or lake with a gas powered engine.. but the sound, the smells.. and the brute LONG Run Time a gas tank can give the user is unlike any other experience.
This boat is no longer available.. and was discontinued years ago. Thankfully I have this one.. because I really do enjoy taking it out on an open pond to have a good rip! Heck.. this pond is WAY to small for a boat like this to even open up on the throttle. If you want to see an insane video about a PAIR of these beauties... click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du0yE... Its worth the click.
For the Aerial videos, I used my DJI Mavic 2 Pro.. its got a great image quality, doesn't it?!
