RC ADVENTURES - Home-made River Jump & RC JET Boats

SUBSCRiBE & “Ring the Bell" ► bit.ly/JOovvU - We built a Floating RC Boat Jump for our Streamline RC Thrasher Jet Boats. These boats do not have outboard props - rather an inner prop that is a "Jet Propulsion" system, much like full size Jet Boats. We are running 6s Lipo today, and really nailed it with our Floating Jump.
For those folks wondering how we built the jump - it was very easy. Some Corrugated Sheet Plastic (got it at Home Depot), some Empty Jugs, some "Gorilla Tape", a Rope & Anchor, as well as a Retrieval Line! We made sure to have a long, flat bottom, so the ramp would have a lot of surface area on the top of the water - as well as plenty of buoyancy with the milk jugs / water jugs you have laying around. By taping the rope VERY WELL to the bottom of the ramp.. it moved very little. If I was to do it again - I would use two anchors - to hold the ramp steady - though only one anchor made the ramp move around.. and was a fun challenge!!
A lot of viewers ask me about the products I use in my films, so I linked the website we got our boats at:
www.StreamlineR...
SPECS & Info from the website:

[@TheRealRCSparks]

An Anchor, we tried to help by explaining in the first 45 seconds of the film! also - check the video description if you want to know what we used :) Happy RC'ing!

[@jaysondeville7644]

RCSparks Studio how can I put flotation in my boat

[@TheRealRCSparks]

+ Jayson - Try using POOL NOODLES... they are foam and really float well! Hope that helps

[@grandprismatic]

No snow boating eh? Medic that was awesome footage

[@milkamania69]

this is amazing. reason number 2376 why owning an rc is better than the real thing. You can thrash it, crash it, and give it all the torture you can dish out. if you break the real thing, it's hundreds or thousands of $$$. RC, bust it up, a little glue, a little tape, and a few bearings, you're good to go

[@StreamlineRC]

Nice ramp build! Great hang time and distance too. The Streamline RC team has enjoyed every video that the RC Sparks Studio team produces. Thank you for pushing the hobby forward day after day with new and creative ways to enjoy. Thank you Medic and Tek!

[@mattwild9370]

[@NordicRC]

Ohh man, 'Dinner' :-) or a monster from a 1980s horror b-movie 'Attack of the Green Water Slime Monster'. Oh well, cool video. This is what slo mo cameras was made for. Looks so cool. Great shots. Bashing on water. Would be fun if one could get a ramp that is turning and moving all the time for land also. Good jumps!

[@cockybastard5729]

Im watching you from Romania ! I didn t see a lot of episodes ! My phone was broken .... but more than sure I will watch all of them !

[@leewood8508]

[@qtjayzzjay8602]

nice jet boat

Stunning Video and fantastic Boat Jumps 🚤🚤 looks like a lot of fun 👌 do we next see a water skier behind the boat🎿? thumbs up my friend 👍👍🔝

[@rookie101_]

That worked really well, going to have to try this.

[@summahype]

yes i hope you tried it. i did it recently

[@damedcamera]

This was very cool dude!! Hope you let me try that ramp out. I love bashing at blackfoot and jumping but I'm thinking you don't break anywhere near the same amount of parts with the boat bahahaha!!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Awesome, I love it. Swwwwweeeeeeet. love the home made boat ramp.I'm saving up for this boat right now.I'm watching from Manchester Michigan.again thank you for sharing a great video a shout -out to effort love you guys.PS. still waiting on Jem's new build running video.

[@evtek3962]

andrew richey cheers.

[@marcelomedeiros4574]

top de maiss muito bomm parabéns 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@EastCoastScaleCustoms]

You should do more of this! It looked like you and Everett had a lot of fun, and that always makes videos better. I really liked your rock bouncing vid as well. Maybe add more anchors to keep the ramp in place next time? Or would that get too much stuff stuck on it? Either way, love your vids!

[@shaneroesner5829]

murica! and i wish i had a jet boat because i live around a lot of lakes and creeks i could drive one up the creeks around here have a lot of current but 6s would have no problem

[@bertdouglas801]

Bashing with Boats!!

[@Mit0_]

like that slowmo

[@summahype]

yea, gave me the idea to do the same for mine

[@ADVENTUREKM]

Watching again cheers 2019

[@noeysfastrc3291]

[@michaelthomas3262]

Your driving-skill is amazing 👍🏻 for hiting the smal ramp 😂

[@TheRealRCSparks]

Love you Michael!!

[@summahype]

it took me forever to get mine on the ramp

[@skyman7053]

[@krashkingrc9715]

Sardinia Ohio. cool little boats looks like a great time keep up the great work awesome videos always

[@atkracing]

Would like to see a traxxas slash hydroplaning video

[@MatthewRizzi]

You make awesome videos

[@BraxxJuventa]

These things are a ton of fun!! Awesome boats!!! :))

[@summahype]

yes they are thats why i had to make my own ramp similar to this

[@sashellealves4224]

i love R.C BOATS

[@summahype]

do you!!!! have you tried one before? they are fun i had to make a video after watching this.

[@grandprismatic]

*Who wants too see the jet ski do it? Thumbs up for Medic if so and hit that like button*

[@iryj1]

It will braak as it has a prop.

[@samanthamartinez719]

I like your video I like your video

[@rickkentner1713]

Way cool video and good job on editing! Found a great deal on waterproof cameras today. Since my pond building has started I bought 3 of them. Giant Tiger, only $55. With many accessories. In Ontario anyways. My daughters GoPro costs almost $400. last year!

[@enderz4770]

Great video! Maybe try with some drone shots or something :)

[@paxtonkeshemberg3869]

I wonder if putting dish soap on the ramp would help the boats jump better

[@suryjoni]

probly it will help. also it will help the water be with alot of soap on it

[@summahype]

lol i should of tried that for my video

[@wolfiegames1437]

Damn I wish I was like you with like every RC thing

[@cademachen1211]

Me and you both man!

[@ADVENTUREKM]

You have to try this video again with the upgrades on!

[@christopherfranks7627]

FPV on the jet boat? Without jumps obviously but that go pro view is deadly!

[@msanchez7317]

Since you're on a river, where there's flowing water, why not mount some 'rudders' on the ramp's underside in-line with the ramp? These would keep it straight in the flowing water and help it straighten back up after a jump.

[@TheRealRCSparks]

I like this idea... thank you! only thing I could see being a problem is the floating weeds getting caught on one side.. causing a spin with the current... Hmm.. Maybe a bevelled rudder would work well.. where the weed could slide off..

[@policeswat64]

What's up Everett

[@evtek3962]

roman dominguez hello man.

[@policeswat64]

Hope we see you around more bro. We all missed you. Getting my first 5th scale and need your expert option :)

[@dph49]

Sweet video guys!! you should find a way to do a James Bond style barrel roll with them!

[@TheRealRCSparks]

A tilted ramp.. just like for Car Roll Overs.. that would be cool too.. thanks for the suggestion!

[@RCTeamAustria]

our son loves it =)

[@summahype]

i bet motivated me to make one myself

[@shembaxter7982]

Love the boats, awesome idea that floating ramp. :-)

[@summahype]

great idea right, it inspired me to make my own

[@RickL-jf8ug]

[@garrettmittler1361]

[@bmxkidracing2149]

Omg cool

[@johnbeck2602]

You guys should make a super man ramp for the boats

[@rishacircuit1594]

I hope they start selling these without the radio and receiver soon I really want to pick one up, awesome video!

[@TheRealRCSparks]

That is a Great idea :)

[@evtek3962]

Risha Circuit RC Channel message them. however they take great pride in making one of the most waterproof receivers you can find.

[@chrismarsh7512]

[@Qoqrz-]

nice vid

[@sethbacon9515]

Have you guys ever got seaweed in between the jet

[@evtek3962]

James Bacons yes in this video we show it. happened a few times. most places do not have seaweed like here. thus is a man made canal for watering farms.
