- Pro Boat JETSTREAM, is it any good, let’s find out!
We unbox it, run it, break it, fix it, modify it, bash it and break it again, keep watching as we get more confident trying out everything from shallow water to open sea, speed run and sever hammering bashing the boat, take a look at the hop up impeller and more :)
It took quite a time to dim this, apologise for time taken :)

Just got mine yesterday and I’m loving it so far! Can’t wait to explore and do some minor upgrades.
It’s an epic boat, I have seen some horrific videos where people have smashed it to pieces, just be sensible with how you bash and run it and it will be fine :) also, tie the hatch on like we did so you don’t loose it. Enjoy :D
Awesome video mate.. what camera are you using and how you holding it in place
@@OGDIABLITO hi, glad you like the video. Onboard is a DJI action 2, I wanted a small camera that didn’t break the bank and as these are second gen it’s cheap and the second generation is the smallest DJI cam that I know of. The rest of the video was filmed with the IPhone 15 Promax and fitted in a Small Rig cage. Hope this helps :) PS, camera is held with a DJI mag mount to the inside of the roof.
Awesome boat and love the servo / impellor upgradea don't they make such a difference.
...where if you like tweaking have you checked out Mad Lizard components he does Trim Tab and Headlight upgrades and usually the first to break BUT most of all he does a 3rd servo upgrade for on-the-fly nozzle control to adjust trim / thrust.
Keep up the great vids
The impeller deffo makes a big difference and the servo upgrades, I was looking to put a micro servo on the nozzle to adjust it on the fly like one of my old real jet boats, it looks like Horizon was going to do just that and bailed on it. Glad you like the vid, can’t wait to get another, going to fit a TO motor and XLX2 marine ESC and up it to 6s lol. I’ll check out Mad Lizard…have a good one and see ya on the flip side :)
@@vortexrcuk it's difficult to know how big a difference the impeller made as also upgraded the ESC but either way it really zips now.
As to micro servo, as I say check out Mad Lizard he does an awesome mounting plate for a 3rd micro servo to do the nozzle, love how I can change the attitude of the boat as the water changes between flat / chop or how it corners /slips through the water
I need a aluminum impeller asap also the hull broke on me also nothing a little epoxy couldn't fix cheers
Yo, the impeller makes a massive differance, USA has plenty of spares available but parts are hard to find in the UK :/
@vortexrcuk I just ordered one online thanks for the reply 👍
@@antisocialvr6 good good, I just ordered the metal intake grill and another set of bash guards as I’ve smashed the frame around the jet and you can only replace that part by buying all the other bits :/
@vortexrcuk hmm I might need to pick that up too 🤔 thanks for the reply cheers
