Never really got into the boats but thats pretty cool!!! Traxxas may not be the most technical RC's but I find them to be the most FUN!! Bashing fun that is
THANKS for your GREAT videos. Because of them, I've jumped into the RC stuff balls to the wall. Even though I still know very little. NOW..... I want to get me one of these boats!
Have a Spartan myself. I highly recommend getting an aftermarket aluminum water jacket for the motor. Got one for 20 bucks from offshoreelectrics. Was the first and best upgrade I made. You'll get better cooling and won't take on water like you do w/ the stock sleeve...
Now, would a bigger prop make for a faster ride? Not to up on fluid dynamics very much but it's so cool how different categories of rc bring their own form of physics to learn in a way
I would love to get this boat. I tried on Saturday when I was getting my traxxas summit monster truck. After watching many videos including yours I made up my mind to fork over the cash and buy one. Hobby store wouldn't give discount if buying both, so in do time I will get that boat. But also have to see where I'm aloud to drive it at since all around me is state parks. Raleigh, NC.
Bad luck Shaun. You should have been given a discount buying two. Is there another place you can spend your money? If there is another store, you could have told them that you are going to shop around. They dont like losing a sale, walking away might have got you that deal. Better luck next time friend.

Hi Medic! My names is Zach and I have recently purchased a Traxxas Spartan from an individual used. When I run it on 6s I have an issue with it porpoising really bad 3/4 to full throttle. What should I do to make it stop? Big fan of your videos by the way!
3S batteries are 11.1V. Lipo batteries are 3.7V per cell, so just multiply the cell count by 3.7 to get total voltage. 3 x 3.7v = 11.1v 4 x 3.7v = 14.8v 6 x 3.7v = 22.2v
What is the run time for the spartan with 6s lipo's stock? i was thinking about saving up for it from traxxas's website and im just curious how long it would run with those batteries, thanks :)
If your on full power the hole time running it, it should be able to go for about 15-20 minutes, if your going at various speeds it should probably last 30 mins
Hey this Is a question I've been dying to ask I have a iPhone and a ford raptor rc truck I want to mount the iPhone on my car for like UA-cam stuff I just haven't got to it yet
Yes ,I can see the different !!I have a Slash ,Traxxas Slash 2WD and it has changed from original motor to brushless and speedcontrol sametime..After that it is possible to drive with 3S-LiPo-batteries,,,You can see my videoclips looking jukkiz67 and Slash...
I'm building a hpi savage ss with electric an electric con version I'm planing on using 4s lipo what motor should I use mm2 or blur please help me medic
C’est de la daube le 4s. Le 6S c’est un MONSTRE !!! Pour le mettre a fond la surface doit être vraiment plate sinon : DANGER !!! Lol 😂 je rigole pas il est vraiment ULTRA PUISSANT
4S is four lithium polymer battery cells. Each cell is 3.7 volts. Four cells times 3.7 is 14.8 volts. Six cells is 22.2 volts. More volts mean a higher top speed. I know the question was asked five years ago. I am just now wanting to get into RC electric boats and need to learn all I can too.
why don't you make a boat trailer for this boat and pull it with your semi it would look sweet when you pull up to the water and launch it. I had made a boat trailer for my little bad toys rs boat and now I am thinking of making a trailer for my other boat I have just picked up.
No comparison!!! With 6s not only can you see the difference via speed and one gnarly rooster tail but that motor just screams! So sick medic! ⚓
Oh, just so you know, if I view your videos, I'll ALWAYS give it a thumbs up.
What a difference! That thing really got up with the 3S x 2
Great to be you man!
Never really got into the boats but thats pretty cool!!! Traxxas may not be the most technical RC's but I find them to be the most FUN!! Bashing fun that is
That was a great show Medic. Love the Rooster Tail.
I would love to see you build a swamp / airboat! It´s tons of fun to build and run such a boat! Think about it, please!!!
Really enjoy your videos!! Fun, and yet very calming at the same time.
THANKS for your GREAT videos. Because of them, I've jumped into the RC stuff balls to the wall. Even though I still know very little. NOW..... I want to get me one of these boats!
A real hot boat. Thanks for the video.
Love it. Excellent video and nice boat. Keep up the great work.
Mike
Love the comparison Medic. It's interesting to hear and see the difference in 4s and 6s. Love all the vids keep them coming.
Have a Spartan myself. I highly recommend getting an aftermarket aluminum water jacket for the motor. Got one for 20 bucks from offshoreelectrics. Was the first and best upgrade I made. You'll get better cooling and won't take on water like you do w/ the stock sleeve...
Matt, link please on the aluminum water jacket. Thanks
@@Kolsch221 they no longer have the one I got and the new one ($39.00) is out of stock.
Yay a new vid can't wait to watch
Great video like all other of yours👍A tip, change to a TFL alu prop and the boat gets wild with 6S, allmost an drivable monster👊🏻
Now, would a bigger prop make for a faster ride? Not to up on fluid dynamics very much but it's so cool how different categories of rc bring their own form of physics to learn in a way
You need a paddle boat with a beer cooler !

It was the only one that had both in. Others had to order and couldn't wait...lol
Shaun Lemmon I know that feeling. Enjoy it Shaun.
Now you can go boating with Ted!
powers off like a rocket =)
Nice boat run, that thing has some crazy speed to it, would love to see the extra 15kph (-;
Verrrrry Nice!!
you and your friends should make a ship!
1:33 it sounds like a lambo XD
Sounds so cool
what a great show on 6s..! :-D
what a difference 2 cells makes. so how much run time do you get with the 12 8's?
Its like 6s has that extra gear! And awesome sound! nice boat-- 80km/h?
I think a good idea for the channel would be a trophy truck build
Medic. Please do some crawling vids please??
You should were a go pro to record😜 just a thought
Hey Medic, dumb question what like better spartan on 4s or on 6s? Thanks
Hi Medic! My names is Zach and I have recently purchased a Traxxas Spartan from an individual used. When I run it on 6s I have an issue with it porpoising really bad 3/4 to full throttle. What should I do to make it stop? Big fan of your videos by the way!
adjust the trim tabs on the rear of the boat :) That will help you :) Also, check your battery placement
What batteries do you use in your raidos? Rechargables or nicad?
Hey Medic i would really like to see the beast launch the spartan with your cormier trailer if you dont mind
When you got your Traxxas Spartan, how was the radio range with the stock Traxxas radio?
wow! big difference!
is that a stock setup creating that rooster tail?
what voltage were those 3s batteries? sorry im a newbie I just got one of these and im looking to maximize power and run time, thanks
It's just around 12.6 volts per 3s Lipo battery
At the max
3S batteries are 11.1V. Lipo batteries are 3.7V per cell, so just multiply the cell count by 3.7 to get total voltage.
3 x 3.7v = 11.1v
4 x 3.7v = 14.8v
6 x 3.7v = 22.2v
How much money have you put to the black widdow?
What is the run time for the spartan with 6s lipo's stock? i was thinking about saving up for it from traxxas's website and im just curious how long it would run with those batteries, thanks :)
If your on full power the hole time running it, it should be able to go for about 15-20 minutes, if your going at various speeds it should probably last 30 mins
oh, thank you :)
+Joshua Jarrett any time
2 S LiPos with 12.800 mah? What’s the running time with this setup?
how much speed will you get to with a 6s / how long of run time do you get with a 6s
How low do you actually run your lipos?
No longer taping the battery bay door?
Everything is waterproof so not sure why he even did it in the first place.. :)
When ya gonna mount your go pro onto the boat?
How did u lock the top of it down?
Hey this Is a question I've been dying to ask I have a iPhone and a ford raptor rc truck I want to mount the iPhone on my car for like UA-cam stuff I just haven't got to it yet
U should mount a camera on top of it
hmm..whats your recovery plan bro ?? w/o is the way to turn a nice day in a nightmare :)
I think he's got a dingy
awesome boat medic ! lovein the boat vids buddy ! B>D
so you think these are worth the purchase?
Defenatley
Dem Minos dough
Stock prop?
Call it 'The Bullet'
Please, put a Go Pro on the boat ti see the boat view
Santiago de Cózar Oliv
Freaking awesome
Yes ,I can see the different !!I have a Slash ,Traxxas Slash 2WD and it has changed from original motor to brushless and speedcontrol sametime..After that it is possible to drive with 3S-LiPo-batteries,,,You can see my videoclips looking jukkiz67 and Slash...
WHERE CAN I BUY THE BOATH AND THE 6S PLEASE?
I'm building a hpi savage ss with electric an electric con version I'm planing on using 4s lipo what motor should I use mm2 or blur please help me medic
The blur because it can go higher than 4s
Its your dad what batteries should i use im thinking 2s 5000mah zippy packs my limit is $50
Noah Thompson
how long to play with 2s + 2sbattery 12800 amh ?
and how long to play with 3s+3s battery 12800 amh
ธนกิจ คัมภีรกิจ the 3s batteries are not 12800mah and also, it will vary with the brand of lipo
Lube that shaft and move those batteries forward.
You can hear the motor and propellers roaring the rpms man no wonder why its water cooled
C’est de la daube le 4s. Le 6S c’est un MONSTRE !!! Pour le mettre a fond la surface doit être vraiment plate sinon : DANGER !!! Lol 😂 je rigole pas il est vraiment ULTRA PUISSANT
how fast is it?
I feel like the Spartan is a very high maintenance boat, I would like to have one but I would still stick with my Atomik whiplash
I have a atomick barbwire
It's not really that higher maintenance no more then any otheres
I really wonder what the scale speed on 6s is
It's around 88klm per hour
do you test 8 s lipo
How much does it cost
What does 4s and 6s mean?
4S is four lithium polymer battery cells. Each cell is 3.7 volts.
Four cells times 3.7 is 14.8 volts.
Six cells is 22.2 volts. More volts mean a higher top speed.
I know the question was asked five years ago. I am just now wanting to get into RC electric boats and need to learn all I can too.
Mark Vanyo but still, finally got back, didn’t see anyone else do it, I learned today, thanks to you. So thank you!!
Could u maybe try and make a floating ramp and jump the boat
Oyeah forgot
*****
what about 5000mah 50 c 11.1 lighter weight may be more run time
quit showing me videos of your boat lol makes me want one ha ha keep up the nice videos traxxas spartan you say humm
why don't you make a boat trailer for this boat and pull it with your semi it would look sweet when you pull up to the water and launch it. I had made a boat trailer for my little bad toys rs boat and now I am thinking of making a trailer for my other boat I have just picked up.
You should put a GoPro on that.
i would be out running my truggy but mice chewed the antenna up
Cool it's fasts
strap the FPV up!!!!
Running time???? 😊🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪
Niiithhee lookths ssthhoo fun (:
wow 437,027 subs but only 55 views
Its only been like 8 mins
man stop bragging 13 subs and 5 views
Why is it so fast?
Brushless motor and a lot of battery cells.
Get those anchors out of there and go faster even, sacrifice run time for speed.
do a drift vid soon if possible
Hi rcaventures can you show how to dance with a baby
Go to the dam with the spartan
Que é do Brasil digita (oi)
