Hey guys👍 It was so much fun testing these SWEET 3D printed parts for the SprintJet and I would definitely recommend them for the best performance especially if you have converted yours to brushless😁 I will test the water cooling very soon. Thanks again Dave🙏 Correct link to Sundogz Adventures parts www.shapeways.com/shops/sundogz-adventures

Wow crazy fun speed! With the upgrade parts very stabel! Now rhere is enough power go up any white water ha ha!

[@rccrazy]

Super fun absolutely🤪 The upgrades are AMAZING! Very stable now. And yes I will have to find some rapids to send it up😁 Thanks for watching👍

[@adamwolfy4826]

Awesome! Those 360s are crazy! 🤣 cant wait to see it go again with bigger batteries

[@rccrazy]

Yeah I'm kinda getting some stunts, have to make a floating ramp soon🤣🤘 I ordered some 550mah 3s but the they forgot to do stocktaking, the listing was a incorrect, none in stock😭 I'll find some soon. Cheers man👍

[@islandrc-duke1972]

wow,cool mods and awesome little boat

[@rccrazy]

Definitely a cool boat👌 Thanks for watching mate👍

[@GreatLakesRC]

😂 look at that little boat go! That looks like a lot of fun 👍

[@rccrazy]

It is definitely a fun little RC👍 Yeah its stupid fast for what it is but it's perfect😆🤘

[@Sundogz]

Glad you figured out that you have to swap the stator fins/bushing to the new stator for it to work! Thx for the accolades, Sdg.

[@rccrazy]

Yes it would have been fine with the upgraded stator but no water cooling if I had installed the fins. I will try it when I take it out next👌 Thanks you so much mate🙏

[@RAWN001]

Do you make a similar kit for the jam Jet by pro boat?

[@robertmaynard298]

is this the same sundogz thats on rc universe back in the day when the nqd was poplar on the unoffical all things jet drive thread

[@Sundogz]

Yep, the same :) @@robertmaynard298

[@peteuncle2935]

Great review mate. Well done on the before test, then swapping parts at the lake to directly compare in the same conditions. You Covered the basics of installation and the little tricks so we don't get caught out! You should get a box full from Dave and sell these in Australia, i was going to order from his site a few months ago, but the postage was way overpriced from memory. The boat was planted with that ride plate! I want one! Well, Two actually 😁

[@rccrazy]

Thanks very much mate👍 Yeah I thought to myself, 4 screws and squeeze the nozzle🧏‍♂️way too simple, stock test then swap the parts down the lake😅 I love the ride plate! I want to get the JetJam one and go brushless👌 And yes I was the same when I checked the postage prices a year or so ago, it was like 6 x the cost of the parts to us in Australia, it should be cheaper now but I'm not sure.

[@peteuncle2935]

@@rccrazy i just looked, nearly 50usd for one ride plate to Australia. You should be the Australian distributor for them, i will take 3 of them. Funny you mention that, i just bought 2 of the jetjam copies, flytec v009, on eBay and Banggood. I haven't tried them yet but will be going brushless for sure.

[@rccrazy]

50usd😱 Ok so it hasn't changed🤔 Yeah that is very disappointing. And Aussie distribution wouldn't be easy for me personally but possible, but that would be entirely upto Dave and I don't really know him well enough to ask that🤷‍♂️ Oh yeah and the JetJam style boats are sweet👌

[@timallen6035]

Good video. I thought you were testing a boat, not a submarine. LOL 😆 It definitely looked like it was more stable and controllable with the mods.

[@rccrazy]

Yeah that kamikaze submarine attempt was so funny🤣 Definitely more stability and the over steering is much less of a issue now👌 Thanks Tim👍

Oh nice, beautiful place in Spain😁 Thank you very much and welcome, hope you enjoy more of my videos😊 Greeting from Melbourne✌️

[@deathwish5410]

Truely most fun you could have on the water? little rocket 👍

[@rccrazy]

Absolutely man👌 This little thing is so practical for me and yeah I think it's fast enough🤔😅 I would love big boats but without transport it's hard. Thanks for checking it out man👍

[@RC-gj7kq]

Nice mod Saul. Good job as allways!! I bought wl915 total garbage! I sold ready. Now I have udi arrow. Nice boat fast and no leak. Have nice day

[@rccrazy]

Thanks mate😁 Oh no! I was thinking of getting a wl915 aswell, thanks for the warning😅 You too mate, have a good day✌

[@rccrazy]

I just realised the wl915 is the twin hull one I have, was thinking of a different one🤦 No the 915 is not great😕

[@RC-gj7kq]

@@rccrazy now best cheap option is udi arrow brushless and feilum fto11. All one says arrow is more quality not leak nothing. Real 50kmh and fast turns. I love arrow. Also I own small udi 001. And is great quality a lot parts for changue and funny. I give u one idea for your next boat and your nice channel!!!! 👍🏻. Big hug. Now I’m in Spain.

[@rccrazy]

Thank you very much! I will definitely look into one of these boats for the channel asap👌 I'm looking forward to more boat fun😅 Stay safe over there🙋

[@jerrysmith7166]

I just bought this boat today haven't even put it in the water yet and holy s*** I have to go brushless and get those upgrades definitely a huge Improvement looks great

[@rccrazy]

They are fun stock but yeah brushless is AMAZING😅 Hope you enjoy it👍

[@peteschannel508]

I wanna buy one and do these mods. I think it would be a lot of fun in a creek after a nice rain to run some white water!

[@rccrazy]

Not sure if all the power is necessary for white watering but it would sure be fun😆 If you do decide on getting the 3D printed parts just try and avoid hard surfaces like rocks, could break if it's gets a hard hit or a awkward hit.

[@peteschannel508]

@@rccrazy ok good to know, cool video.

[@Revelation1316]

Nice but, did you get more run time with bigger battery and how did it handle with that battery?

[@rccrazy]

You would definitely get longer run time with more mah yes. But I ended up buying some CNHL MiniStar 550mah 3s lipos, much faster but they last much longer because you don't need to use as much throttle a lot of the time. I even tried 4s, the jet couldn't actually push that amount of water and just cavitated 😆 I have been meaning to bring it out again, I got another jet boat to upgrade😁

[@brockduance5800]

Hey mate I’ve just gone brushless and I was wondering what you use around the watch to help keep it water tight?

[@rccrazy]

If you mean the foam stuff then it's the kids craft foam you get from random Dollar shops and craft stores. Cheap and nasty but it works ok😅

[@Prototype_celsius]

How do you take the top off of the boat? Trying to get some more room in it lol

[@rccrazy]

Same issue I had especially with sausage fingers😆 Yes it takes a little patience to work on these.

[@805crawlers]

hi im just wondering is you boat water cooled?

[@rccrazy]

I can't remember if I had it working in this video but I have definitely uploaded a video with it all working👍

[@D.rexofficial]

How many minutes does the boat last full charged

[@rccrazy]

For me personally not very long😅 With a 450mah 3s I get about 7-8mins using quite a lot of throttle the whole time, I'm used to only about 4mins maximum with my fast planes so I don't mind just taking multiple lipos. But it really depends on how you drive and where, on calm water you could make it last quite a while but if your hitting rapids you will definitely use lots of throttle so run time will be shorter.

[@tsyoung1993]

It this stock other than 3s?

[@rccrazy]

No not stock, highly modified and brushless.

[@willrh1022]

Will this work for a jet jam?

[@rccrazy]

No these are specific to the SprintJet but Dave has finished a ride plate for the JetJam to stop the bouncing. Great question by the way👌 www.shapeways.com/product/FJBMNVTJ7/proboat-jet-jam-ride-plate?optionId=263248026&li=shops

@@rccrazy thanks!

[@rccrazy]

No prob👍

[@charliebell7163]

Hey man how did you get a reciver in there or there on builinto esc? And which remote did you use?

[@rccrazy]

I'm using a DumboRC radio system. Just plugged everything in, put the receiver in a balloon and push it to the nose of the boat. You will probably need to remove the motor to get the receiver in.

[@charliebell7163]

@@rccrazy Thanks so much And one other thing did you remove the lead weights atttached next to the battery or leave them for stability?

[@rccrazy]

Removed the weights, you may not have to though. I am actually running the esc on the battery side and the lipo were the esc should be, I got a huge water cooled esc, very heavy and is perfectly balanced without the weights.

[@charliebell7163]

@@rccrazy Thanks man just ordered all the parts you used I decided on the beta fob battery for my case. Does the esc you used come with an xt30 on it or did you solder one on?

[@rccrazy]

Nice👌 My esc came with bare wires if i remember correctly, I soldered the xt30 on myself.

[@lowtus7]

Probably not the best to Reccomend people get the upgrades before you have even tested it. Just my thoughts.

[@rccrazy]

You do realise thumbnails and titles are normally produced after testing, just though you should know😅

[@lowtus7]

@@rccrazy It wasn't the thumbnail or title I was referring too, it was your comments at 3.34 in the video.

[@rccrazy]

Sorry it's an old video so I had to re watch it, but I don't see any problem with what I said "stock parts may be OK in some situations but you most likely going to want the upgrades" These parts have been tested well before I got them and these boats have a well know porpoising/bouncing issue which a ride plate with almost always eliminate. I may seem thick but I do know a thing or two about physics and geometry.

[@revsonsrc9573]

That’s awesome super good upgrade. Glad I’ve found your video. Shapeways bound 😂🚤

[@rccrazy]

I'm a speed demon so most of my stuff is way overpowered🤪 The ride plate is amazing!👌 Thanks for checking out my vid and good luck on the upgrading😁
