I have the original Rockstar 48. I think the build quality went down on this. There's much bigger canopy vents, no bailers and no cooling issues. It's still all worth it on that maiden run, no 8s packs that last 10mins. I'll trade running it all afternoon on a gallon of gas for speed anyday. Mine has a ported barrel, skimmed head, a bigger Walboro carb, with a balanced and polished race prop. It does 65mph which is plenty fast enough to get into trouble. Enjoy your boat dude, she's a beauty. 👏👏

@maximumthrottlerc59393 жыл бұрын
He didn't get shafted on the boat. Everyone has to set these boats up when they unbox them. They are not tuned and pre-ran at the factory before they get shipped out and If he was unaware he became aware very fast. There is a group on Facebook that deals specifically with set ups and trouble shooting issues that arise... and all of these issues are covered in content there. Once the boat motor is broke in and the carb is tuned it runs like a dream. There's nothing else to say about it. You either love it or you hate it. There's no grey area with it.

Prob should add an electric bilge pump. I seen rc sailors did a review on an electric boat that had bilge pump which also played a part in self righting on a roll over. It would fill up with water and then flip back up and then pump water out. Cool boat. Seems like for sure a headache but equally a challenge to overcome. Sounded rich a lot of the time. Maybe see if you can get a better carb that will adjust better. I’ve always Street/feel/sound tuned my quads and bikes. I start at the bottom of throttle range and work one section at a time until bottom mid and top are good. Last I get a new plug install it and do an immediate wide open pass and kill the engine at wot. Check plug to make sure it’s not white (lean) or black(rich) but a nice grey color. I like a little darker just a hair on the rich side. I want no part of rc boats lol. I have enough real boat headaches. But I fly and fly rc planes and helis.

The rc boat racing community could help you address a lot of your mechanical issues. Since you aren't racing your boat, chances are that water is coming into your hull from leaks in your water lines. Ie, your literally pumping water inside the hull. Hope this helps.

That's a lot of smoke. That engine is choking on fuel. Worse come to worse, you could pressurize the fuel tank like nitro engines. I'm surprised it isn't from the factory. Even 2 stroke airplanes get pressurized tanks. A water cooled engine full of fuel should not be overheating, even with the stock pickups. You may have debris clogging the rudder... happens to Outboard motors all the time.

I think some 2 stroke airplanes have pressurized fuel tanks because they can go upside down/ fly at crazy angles and can’t re-prime them selves….. not positive about that… yeah, she was running a bit rich.
