Radio Shack Vintage Tsunami Rc Boat

[@sparetimerc]

That Radio Shack Tsunami boat is a DIAMOND IN THE RUFF a great Find. Doesn't need to be a speed boat as long as it is fun to run. Still sounds like all electronics are working smoothly. Thank for sharing. ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️👍🤜🤛

This is so cool, you know I'm a big vintage radio shack guy. Crazy that is has a bilge pump and gear drive shaft. Faster than I would have thought and sweet on board video!

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Yeah brother can't beat the classics they are the best memories

[@krashkingrc9715]

Awesome video excellent find definitely a cool old boat. Take care and keep it up brother

[@gamesgonenuts]

wow remember seeing these in stores cool to see it running

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Love finding classics even better when they still run thanks for watching

[@Tanneritefilledfido]

This is cool. I had this boat when i was very little. It took a beating on long trips around the local pond till the motor died

[@Fonzierc]

That is awesome find very cool 👍 I'm sure you will fixe it up no problems great to see it going 🤘

[@SpringWoodsRC]

Nice find! 00

[@Del350K4]

What a wonderful find! And it stayed dry inside...

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you Del I really appreciate it

[@Del350K4]

@@AdventureTimeRC It's surprising that it isn't a little faster, given that the motor is quite large for a hull of these dimensions, but as you say, a lot of the pleasure with a realistic-looking boat like this one comes from watching it go by rather than breaking spoed records.

[@AdventureTimeRC]

@@Del350K4 I thought it might be a bit faster to lol

[@Del350K4]

@@AdventureTimeRC The day the motor wears out and you fit a simple, new, brushed Mabuchi, you might be surprised by a 30% gain in top speed!

[@AdventureTimeRC]

@@Del350K4 that is true

[@rc.terminator]

What a cool boat brother looks faster with the camera on it but it’s definitely a fun little critter

[@Blastfromthepastrc1346]

Cool looking boat Brent,I must admit that vintage rc is really starting to spike my interest,espicially since I got the Kyosho Rocky. Anyway, thank you for sharing and have a great weekend 🙂👍

[@SLRC17]

nice boat.

[@Scarecrow747]

Bueno amigo buen video saludos

[@carloshnunez]

Not bad for an old toy grade boat, it will be fun to upgrade it to brushless and a 3s lipo 🔵🔵🔵👍👍👍😀😀😀🔵🔵🔵

[@AddamsPlayground]

That is pretty cool!! I am surprised the grease was still grease and not a solid block of crud! I agree that they don't have to be super fast and cutting super sharp turns to be something you can go out and enjoy! It is a unique design of a boat! It kinda looks like they took all the available boat designs and a jet ski and mashed it into this form! To bad about the wing, fixing it won't be too bad it is just a shame you probably lose the sticker from it.

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you Addam I agree about the strange design I was able to get the sticker off in decent shape I have a rather large collection of vintage radio shack and Nikko boats haven't had them out for awhile I really enjoy my slow cruisers from the past

[@BasBoyRC]

That for its age is in very good condition, for the time proportional controls was above average. I with you not fast but enjoyable to use like me with RC cars if it puts a smile on my face it's good.

[@rctrailcats3492]

Wild boat. I went to a fea market. No RCs. But I did get 14 wood hangers for 3 bucks.

[@teamsargentrc6399]

Sweet Tsunami I actually had one of these, never seen more then a pool. & my friend ended up putting fireworks to it & 😒 yah, dumb crap kids do. super cool to still see it great video Brent brother 🤟🤜🤛👊✌️👍

[@BangForYourBuckRc]

That really works well Brent ! Even turns nice! Any idea what years this was sold! Thanks for sharing my friend!👊🏼😎💦

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I see a brushless conversion in its future 😂

[@gristage]

I still own one of these boats!

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you that's awesome I love vintage boats

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

These were made by Nikko. They would’ve had a strip of Velcro to hold the top on so what you’re doing is perfect 🤘

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you very much Thad I will have to break out all my Nikko boats sometime a have several I converted my super cruiser over to 2.4 it goes much better

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

@@AdventureTimeRC nice!!

[@JerseyStyle7]

👍🏽same size boat as my mini dom 👍🏽

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you very much my friend

[@JerseyStyle7]

@@AdventureTimeRC even though its a little slow, still very cool piece of childhood, just hearing about radio shack was cool, those days are over😔 I really think Amazon and Costco are going to take over the world, and Elon musk 😂

[@75vw]

I have the exact same boat. !!! I’m thinking of putting a bigger motor in it and propeller.

[@garynewman7200]

This is awesome. My son actually just got the exact same model from his uncle, and it's in a similar shape. I intend to try it out in the next couple of days. What did you use for the antenna tube?

[@AdventureTimeRC]

Thank you I used actually antenna tube its really inexpensive to buy most hobby stores still carry it

[@jstrotha0975]

Right on, I bought a Radio Shack Caliente boat real cheap off Ebay. It didn't come with the radio and the rudder was broken off. Going to upgrade it to make it a little faster.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍👍👍

[@modelnutty6503]

funny old find, Tyco/Nikko had a 370-380 motor with 1.6:1 or 1.7:1 gearbox "in the way", the old Nikko Barracuda here is needing mod completion.. a 390 motor direct drive into a surface prop will near triple the speed, not as simple as one may think for the other "fun" work required.

[@19Marc79]

5:17 => Now I konw why they named it ´Tsunami´: The wake of the boat is producing 2 HUUUGE TSUNAMI waves to both sides !!!

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I remember these. You got a deal. They go for 80-120 on eBay in not that good of shape
