one of the reasons it back flips at speed is you get air under the hull and that overcomes the weight of the boat and backwards you go. Full scale boats do that too so the driver is constantly adjusting trim, airfoils etc to keep the nose down but not too far down. It's the same issue with your speed record R/C cars doing back flips when you hit a pebble or something. Once the air gets under, it's game over. What you could try to combat this (besides more weight in the bow) is put a wing on the bow....just a little one, to add some downward pressure the faster you go.
I build high end rc boats. You can use a piece of wiper blade in the middle about one inch back (in the tunnel). That disrupts the air and lowers the lift. Or I usually use carbon fiber tube for a cleaner look. I’ve been over 100mph with a single prop boat on 4s.
I bought a few preowned Proboat 17 Deep V (ebay returns). Lipo/Brushless. Use blue loctite on the steering linkage grub screws. You can buy Hockey Tape to seal the hatches. For retrieval, I did like you did with a string of fishing bobbers. The self righting function is genius. Thx for the entertaining video as always 👍
I’ve said this before but it’s so easy to loose sight of how fast that really is! Most people watching this won’t have even gone that fast in a car! It’s crazy this little boat can get to that speed and so quickly.
I don’t know you at all man, but you seem like a good dude. Simple as that. I watch your content for you as much as the RC content. When you get to the US Immigration hope I get the opportunity to shake your hand. Good on you bro!
The Traxxas Boat seems like its more responsive than anything I've seen you Run( despite you don't take the time to practice ) in the 5 yrs as a fan.appreciate Great clean fun that My kids can watch 95% of videos. Very smart of you. Family of USA ‼️‼️
Never really gave rc boats a go only as a kid and I did enjoy terrorising the ducks at local parks with a cheap rc hovercraft.. but the mess and carnage that comes with the nitro rc four wheel toys simply cannot be beaten .. yet another entertaining vid from kev and big thanks to his friends who help to adding that extra knowledge and footage ruining their own toys for us to!
Ran Nitro boats in the 80's. The return ratio was about 20 hours of prep for anything from 10 seconds of joy to 5 minutes. Tether boats are great though. Probably not a thing these days.
@@dazaspc would be cool for a nitro boat or twin engine nitro boat … don’t give me ideas! 😂 but yeah seems no matter how good an automotive engineer or handy man you’ll always get nitro issues of exactly that! Hours of work for the shortest of fun sometimes. I just can’t bring my self to electric yet even though it’s only pros for a switch over
@@speedfreak8200 yeah that’s how I run them mate rich as hell till you can barely full throttle then lean it just a tad… plenty of smoke and oil out the exhaust is the trick 👍
I personally really like having a new kev video every couple days, but longer videos would be cool too! Whatever is best for you man, really enjoying the content 👍
The traxxas m41 is honestly my favorite rc boat. My brother has 1 and it's absolutely fun and besides an after market metal prop it's perfect for almost all
The rc boat ideah fits your Channel becouse its rc content its still god to compare that the price but its what puts a smioe on your face works best great vid 😀😎
Steeper pitch props will do amazing things. Another thing to consider the big versions of these boats the props are breaking the surface when under power. I’m guessing the same physics applies which means you’ll want to bring the props up not down. And figure out another way to keep the bow down. Awesome video!!!!
Kev, I know this is a bit off-topic, but hear me out, mate. So, professional drifters that have thousands of horsepowers going to their tyres have an ongoing issue; the tyres don’t wear out, they come off in chunks from the speed and stress of the tyre. To fix that, they have these nozzles that spray water on them to help keep them cool, and to add to the structural integrity of the rubber. Maybe if you were to saturate the foam on the tyres with something, you could probably get a few more Miles per hour out of them. Thanks for your time.
Honestly Kev, for us in the 3rd world there is no chance to get stuff like this. I live my dream through you... Regards Kevin..yes, I am also called Kevin
Recover or upright the boat by putting magnets on the boats and use a drone with another magnet on a string. Use magnets with just enough pull to upright the boat, then seperate
What if you got a gyro set for vertical movement, and attach a trim tab off a high speed digital servo. It might be a phaff setting the gain, but once you’ve got it dialed in. It would really help keep the boat trimmed. You’ve got me looking at speed boats now 😂
Put spoiler on a servo as it gets closer to full throttle it puts more force on front of boat or some weight that slides forward as it gets faster like a tractor pull sled weight and flaps to fly up like NASCAR when they turn around backwards to shove back down to the water in this application 👊👊 Good luck ‼️
Typically when a boat is flipping a lot, it’s due to too much prop in the water. A surface piercing prop when on plane should really only be about halfway in the water. Usually, I’d set the boat on a flat surface and adjust so the bottom of the stinger is about 3-4mm above the table.

2:50 kevin giving the controller to a kid is just so wholesome and shows how he wants to get kids and everyone involved in the hobby of rc
Always a good day when Kev uploads
Yup🎉 love from sri lanka❤🇱🇰😁.
Yes it is!🎉
If you like Kevin like this comment!!😀
No.
We for sure need more boat videos, they are awesome! 😎👍 Maybe some speed run boat builds in the future…?

@@Turbogto_guy yeah, that's right, I heard about that. Going to bug me to remember what it's called. I want to say splitter, but that's on cars......
@@muskokamike127 I wish I could post a pic.
The Richard Hammond of rc boats 🤌🏻
The boat that does 100mph. You could make a little spoiler for keeping the nose down. Great video kevin

You need adjustable planes on the back of the boat to prevent backflips. Look at a full size powerboats
Absolutely not
Blow Overs are part of the fun to see how fast you can go before it happens
I agree, needs stern planes although not an easy task on that boat.
@@burnedagain6187 this boat does not need trim tabs
You have the best video ever.
With you, don’t matter what the video it is, I’ll watch it. Your a great guy Kev :)
Well done. Nothing sunk and nothing WASTED!
I’ve said this before but it’s so easy to loose sight of how fast that really is! Most people watching this won’t have even gone that fast in a car! It’s crazy this little boat can get to that speed and so quickly.
the $90 one seems epic for so cheap. that carbon one rips!
so much boat for $90, so much fun too!!
Amazing vid Kev 🎉🎉

Good on you Jim for saving the lads boat!
I was so busy rescuing that it meant I didn't have too much time to break all my own boats for a change lol :D
That $90 dollar one was so smooth and stable! Plenty fast enough! I'd rather rip that thing around than the 500+ dollar ones that constantly flip over
Just wanted to say I love your videos their so entertaining and interesting!I’m saving up to buy one of you rc cars!😁🏎
The Mr Beast reference. Gotta love it 😵 Great vid Kev
As soon the thumbnail came up my wall clock and dresser mirror shattered. 😳
I liked the slow motion of the boat flipping because it's just like the real scale boats. And no one gets hurt.
That thumbnail is 😏
IKR!! Those of us around Greenville have known for years to never allow our kids around Jimmy MrCreep and his crew of miscarriages that didn't flush.
I would not be pulling any ideas from mrbeast right now 😂
Not even a ryzen 4070 can render his list of sins
filthy little beast ,

As soon as he said that name..... 🤨
exactly what i was thinking lol

Give medals for rescuing that little boat. That boat was pulling all those overpriced drowned pieces out of the water like nothing.
1 Hour gang
2:39 is crazy
Fr 😮
Loving the recovery guy think that be more fun that your boat 😂
Saves me breaking my other boats if I'm too busy doing rescues lol
That 3000$ boat is just unreal!!! How is it so fast!? 😂
shes got more in her yet!!
Brushless Motor, Lipo Battery
Fast sauce, haha
LET HIM COOK!!
Accom I would love to have the boat and accomplish me 😔

The boat testing was epic

Arlo is so cute and funny ❤😂
These videos keep me hopeful to get out of hospital and upload my own stuff. From Australia. Pluss I'd like to see kev do a nitro RC boat
Finally a descent boat rc review 😀👍
Your my favorite UA-camr
You helped me start my rc jounrey thanks Kevin!
Trust me we have like 33 battery cars it's such a fun hobby
@@RēIacx FR??? That's sick
Good vid Kev 🎉
Submarine rc would be pretty cool!
4s brushless submarine super speed sneaky
LOL that little $9 rc boat was kinda cool running it underwater with decent control lol
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Jesus is lord and he wants to have a relationship with you. Repent of your sins and follow him.❤
The MrBeast drama recently has been wild
Wow Amazing Speed And Sound Really good thanks for sharing 🙏
Loving this influx of content 👌🏻
Damn Kev I was not expecting that 2:43
See Sam Hallstrom's channel and and behold this beast at 113mph 😮 ..epic boat session, fellas! 👍
SHES GETTIN IT NOW!!!!!!
The rc boat ideah fits your
Channel becouse its rc content its still god to compare that the price but its what puts a smioe on your face works best great vid 😀😎
You are the best UA-camr and I love rc car it’s amazing to see some like you have fun with rc car and boats soooooooooooooo fun
Speed monster 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hello Mr Kevin Talbot I am a fan of the videos you make. I love RC cars in particular
Thanks a lot for propagating your fun this way
Awesome video Kev! You're the reason why I started my own channel ! 😁🎉
I guess Mr beast did not approve the thumbnail
Love your videos ❤
that last ship really loved merecades le mans
It’s rare to see any RC incorporating Kevlar let alone a whole hull. It’s a perfect match for my Kevlar cab carbon fiber Axial “UMG18 Flatbed” ❤🤘🏼

2:40 😂 kev my man 😂😂😂
A mini V8 nitro motor in a RC boat would be pretty cool = 1 million views . Nice vid , really enjoy the different content

Really want one of those remote control Traxxas boats that you literally just straight out is so cool
Ahaha finaly 🔥🔥 the twin cat is so cool (I wil have one in 4 years trust me

Have not watched a kev dork video in a while.
Hello sir!
I was so confused when i thought it was mr beast then i see kev in the background🤣

First let’s go!!!!❤ I love you Kevin!
Coltan Morgan was first
Scott you are a Hero
Lots of fun to be had!!! Put some weight inside the boat, help to hold it down.
2:40 Me: Jesus!
Kevin: Jesus!

In your face Mr. beast! 💥
Just when I'm looking about rc boats you drop that video ! 😅
Let's watch it !
That Traxxas boat turns like it doesn’t believe in physics 🤣
i know its mad!
Absolutely crazy!
People are really sleeping on rc boats I have been driving cars 15+ years and just discovered boats it's so awesome!
I love your videos
Back again❤
Electric power pushes the limits of the physical components
Nice video 🎉🎉🎉
Full speed in the bathtub 🎉🎉

Absolutely awesome 👌 video
Bring back the real Kevin
😂😂😂😂super vidéo 😂😂😂😂 j ai envie de sortir mon smash shark maintenant 😁👍
Good job Kev!
Awesome episode!!
The M41 in the bathtub gave me flashbacks to me tuning my Traxxas Nitro Vee in my bathtub at home lol!
You did it way better than Mr Beast could have ever done anyway! And included personality for free lol
i cant wait for the xmax raffle!!!!
Go Jim 👍
Ha ha, thanks! :D
Hey man I love your vids keep up the good work 😁
You cant do a boat show without stumpy or stimpy, it aint the same!
