I got my dream boat!

[Doom!]

Throws a nice rooster tail, definitely helps with visibility.

This makes me want to go buy one and get to a lake for a hot summer day!!!
That thing boogies!!!

I didn’t set it up for chop but I could plant this in the water and go full trigger on those waves.

Nice boat. Looks gorgeous inside.
I have a 36" V2 also. I am curious as to how the 36" and the 48" look with the 12" size difference next to each other. Can you snap a pic with the two side by side?
Thanks for all of the pics and the vids!

Here you go! Btw… I get 65-68 consistently with my V2 and I have an 8S speed controller because I caught the first one on fire. I have some 3D printed battery tray insert and I run SMCs. I have only ran the SS wake a few times now but it drives just like the 36”. But better. Full right and left turns. I’ve gotten 42 with the 10K mah spektrum bricks and stock prop. But I’ll prop up. You can raise the stinger up or down so I’ll run her as dry as possible with the lighter packs and I should get well over 50. I got lucky. 600 out the door cash as a birthday present from my LHS. I’m very bought 27 rigs from them. lol. Just buy it. But it’s massive. I have to put the seat down in my equinox to haul it. Gets the 26” recoil 2 also. I have a trans am decal coming for the top!

I have a crap ton of V2 videos on my YouTube channel.

Holy cow that thing is huge. Make our V2's look like toys.
Enjoy it!

 

[BudUMfan]

It really does! Thanks bro. I’m lucky to have that behemoth

Almost caught the boat on fire right after this. Bad Lipo connectors.

At least there was plenty of water around to put the fire out.
Good thing nothing worse happened!!!

It was the battery cables, or the cables connected to the boat from the connector to the ESC?

It was the wires exposed going into the batteries ic5 plug. They got real hot obviously and I had to cut them cause a fire was imminent.

Nice fleet... proboat makes nice models..
That thing is a missile. Looks to handle well also.

 

[Chubaka]

Smart technology my @ss. glad you got it resolved before it was a major problem.

 

[BudUMfan]

Boats fixed!

 

[mapper]

Yay! The water missile back in action again.

I’m going to run the Sonic Wake V2 and the recoil which I gave to my brother in law. Hope to hit the 70 mph mark! 68 is my top with mostly stock stuff. I do have a 8S speed controller so I might try 8S for a 3-4 sec full trigger pull. Gonna be fun? Yes. Yes it is
