TFL Small Bolt Maiden Shake Down - Mini Rc Hydroplane

You got that thing stuck to the water like glass man it runs so smooth nice job I like your comment doesn't sound like a dirt bike anymore

[@jefferyferguson9232]

Big B I don't how you do it. Testing, tuning and tinkering. Then factor in modifying and building. Now comes filming and editing. You are the hardest working guy out there. Your videos are instructional and informative. Thanks for everything. P.S. you have got to have the most understanding wife in the world.

[@IRONCLADRC]

My wife is awesome, 100% supportive. Thanks for the kind words brother it was alot to take in at first, But now that I've been editing videos for over a year I've kinda simplified the editing/ video process doesn't take me quite as long as it used to

Sweet little ride, we want more slow motion 😆 I’ve been purchasing Octura props since the early 1990s, they need a little work out of the package but once balanced and sharpened they can be used for years (hey everybody wear a mask and eye protection when working on an Octura prop) thanks Big B.

You certainly are the master of little boats Big B. Nice runs and a super prize from the good Doctor's last challenge. 😀 👍 BG4L

Badass lil bullet bro. I was again surprised by the speed of this one. Once you IRONCLAD em they respond tightly

[@IRONCLADRC]

She was pretty quick in its stock configuration. I'm gonna throw that 4500 kv xterm 2440 on it. She should be a rocket on water with that motor it may be to much for that little boat. Only one way to find out.

[@Mr.Blackhatt]

I like little boats and I cannot lie! 😁😁

[@Dr_Jet]

I'm curious to see what you do with that. I had some ideas, but when I looked at the time and effort required, in addition to already having a bunch of similar boats, I decided to let it go as a prize. I'm super-stoked to see it get the IRONCLAD treatment.

[@IRONCLADRC]

I'm contemplating blueprinting the sponsons?? I want to run the boat some more before I do but she's a fun little boat. Thanks again brother in boats

[@thomasbradfield5534]

Nice run... Thank you on the flex shaft info yesterday found what I was looking brother much appreciated 👍 bg4l

[@jaymeparker27]

little boats awsome!

[@hoodatdare7039]

Nice lookin 3 point B. VERRY STABULE FOR A SMALL BOAT. My boat is on sail right now $89.00 at BANCROFT SEARIDER 14.2" CAT.

[@IRONCLADRC]

I will check it out..... Your little boat looks awesome. What kinda paint works best on abs hulls for long term durability?

[@davidlavergnelacasse2356]

Very cool this little boat and very fast but I am looking for a model without electronics just the hull with the chaft and all the rest I am looking for a very light model that I could modify do you know a similar model ?

I have a WL915 and the motor has been replaced with a 2040 3388kv, is the 30A seaking esc safe enough? Tq

[@matthewwilken2051]

ive gone with different strut angles. mine has battery placement towards the rear, i use around a 30m prop myself and i like mine to dive under a little when getting on plane that way it doesnt go airborne as eaz, but having a 4000kv i cant go full throttle often or it does every time even with turn fin. i might do better with a lower kv maybe 3200 or 2600 something like that, what the kv your using around 2000???

[@IRONCLADRC]

I think it's 2600 kv not exactly sure 🤔 I'm about to throw a 4500kv 2440 xteam in it, the same motor I had in my miss geico 17 catamaran
