    1:45 I love that even the 'squirt' boats sound good. Unlike the U1's of today. 4:30...just like its namesake, it was a difficult design to keep on the water

    These are cool. Surprised no one has a Mrs. Circus Circus. I’m just biased cause that was my favorite boat growing up.

      @@M5PerfHydros Well as it turns out I've got the green light! Got the plans and kit (leaning FE) BUT I may have hit a snag. RC Boat Company is at a work stoppage which given the reason is understandable. Is there anyone else that produces cowlings, wings and other whatnot? I'd ask this on your FB page but I don't do social media.

    Question: The boats race are always clockwise, or they run counter clockwise too. They run turn to the left too?

    • @M5PerfHydros
      @M5PerfHydros  Рік тому

      Clockwise for 1/8th scale and gas scale, but our 1/10th scale boats turn left. Don't ask why, I'm still unhappy about that myself

    • @M5PerfHydros
      @M5PerfHydros  Рік тому

      I've always been a smoke and fire kind of guy, but electric is becoming a lot more tempting these days as fewer nitro boats are showing up now. Why not build yourself a whole new boat?

    Why dont they change everything. Put clutches in the boat and water pumps that can be shut off just for starts that way everyone would have coming and rest at the starting line think about it you could revolutionize this sport. What you think about a 1996 prather pirahna out rigger .67😊
