The big brother to the FT012 and FT009 boats, which I am a big fan of. This one has a brushless motor, like the FT012, but the larger size keeps it from being much faster, if faster at all. But it's still quite fast.
Enjoy!

More hull surface in the water = more bounce take those trim tabs/K-planes off the transom & it will bounce all the time. You can remedy that bounce by replacing the factory tabs with adjustable k-planes👍 This is a NICE Boat to add to my RC arsenal. Great Review as always Captain Crunch👍👍 ❤

I have both the ft012 & ft011, and love them. The 11 does smooth out in calm winds/water. Mine can actually run the motor outside the water & bind. Both have leakage problems-12 being worse than the 11. I found that the inner canopy was warped. I ordered a new one, leakage decreased a lot. -still love them.

Adding a bit of weight would stop the bounce. I built myself an RC boat this past year but next year I plan on buying this boat. The one I have is a fishing trawler I made from a german made RC boat that no longer functioned. Apparently they had a tendancy to short out upon getting wet,ruining the Circuit board and costing $140 new back in the 80's. The company went belly up quickly. I put hobby grade parts in it and made it function. This model has cought my eye so tempted to by one. Thanks for doing the review so I know what I am getting for my money. Wouldnt want to do another RC rebuild.lol.

couple things 1) It does NOT have to be in the water to run the motor or sync up. 2) Bend the trim tabs down a tad more so it wont come so loose at full throttle like that, thats why your having the flipping problem, worked on mine. 3) You can adjust how tight it turns on the TX 4)These boats turn sharper one direction verses another. Good video, I love my boat!

1. Not correct, at least for mine. I am 100% certain of this, and tested it in the sink before filming the run video. 2. Sounds like a good idea. 3. Yep, I'm pretty sure I mentioned that in the review. 4. Not correct. The fins on the back, and offset rudder, are designed to make the turns equal in each direction.
@JohnVHRC
@JohnVHRC 8 жыл бұрын
1)The screws you point to have no wires connected to them. lol.. I have one of these, and so does a buddy, it does NOT bind up in water, maybe your not waiting long enough for the two to connect. 4) It may be designed to work that way, but torque and physics dont let it. ;)
@theimacman
@theimacman 8 жыл бұрын
Did you test the motor? The rudder does indeed work out of the water, but the motor does not, so that you don't accidentally cut yourself. The FT009 had that, but the FT012 removed it. So, I was absolutely sure to test it with the FT011, and my motor would not work out of the water. I could certainly understand that they might have changed this in earlier or later production runs though.

#1 to increase turning radius cut the lil stop bumps off the rudder I used a razor 🔪 knife I did both my Ft012 and Ft011 now they turn wicked sharp!!! #2 To stop the Ft011 bow from bouncing ( porpoising ) or acting like flipper...😂 bend the metal trim tab's down 1\8th inch at a time till it stops doing like da flipper 😀..and it's a lot easier to control at top speed!!!😎😎(adding any weight to these boats unless it's a stronger 🔋 battery "will slow the boats down"!!! ) Add a bigger prop and upgrade the battery and they run 50+ !!!!!! Hope this helps and have fun!!¡¡!!😎😎

I had that little servo pushrod sealer that he was talking about pop off one time, and when i brought it in for a battery change, the thing was like half full of water. This one submergement was all it took. My very next run, it went out and got stuck full lock left. Otherwise, all was good.

Well, there's the FT012, but it's pretty much the same as the FT011, but smaller. What I currently have my eye on is the Pro Boat River Jet Boat. That looks pretty interesting... it uses a jet, instead of prop and rudder, so it would be an entirely different type of boating experience. :)

The FT012 seems to be a bit smoother in the water, but I think the FT011 could be trimmed out by adjusting the metal tabs in the back. I would say which one you choose would have more to do with the size of the body of water you would be using it in.

Depends on the size of the water area you want to run it in. They are basically the same thing, just different sizes. If you have a larger body of water, go with the FT011. If the body of water is smallish, go with the FT012.

I'm trying to decide between an F011 and F012. The major differences I see are the F011 is larger and not as maneuverable in turns. The F012 seems a bit faster all-around. I want the size of the F011 but the speed and hairpin turn ability of the F012. Are there any other major differences I am missing? Which do you prefer?

@theimacman 6 жыл бұрын
The size is really the main difference. The speed and turning radius are relative to the size, so they drive pretty similarly in their respective running areas. If you have a small running area, get the smaller FT012. If you have a large running area, get the larger FT011.

Thank you. Now, maybe Bang Good will get my money. There's some on EBay from the U.S. that are cheaper and offer faster delivery being in the states. I wish I could go to a store & buy it on the shelf in the Austin area (that's where I live). I'll get an extra battery or two so I don't have to wait 1-3 hours for another run (don't worry...I'll let the motor cool before continuing). I'll get an extra top hatch cover in red since I'm not a fan of black. Can't find the 012 in anything but black.

It seems the red version was a limited run, and is discontinued and sold out everywhere now. I found one on Amazon, but it's listed for $180, due to how rare it is now.

perhaps put a little weight in the back center....like some bee bees and hot glue for example. It should handle better and easier on the drive line without bouncing in and out of water..

Depends on the size of your water area. Smaller lake, get the FT012. Bigger lake, get the FT011

how big of a battery can you get in the boat and how do you know when the battery is low
@theimacman
@theimacman 7 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure about battery sizes, but you know the battery is low when the power is reduced... even at full throttle, the boat will only move slowly so you can bring it back to shore.

Hmm, I was getting like 8 mins of run time? That is till the end. Is the safety feature active though? As I think I was able to get the motor to start out of the water, not 100% sure though. Mine is just as bouncy :/
@theimacman
@theimacman 8 жыл бұрын
Well, I've only run this boat once... which is the footage used in this video. So, I haven't been able to get my usual real-world run times, and was just going by what the websites say for run time. :/ And yes, my safety feature is active, as I made sure to test that before the run, since the FT009 had it and the FT012 did not. Another commenter is saying that he's pretty sure his does not have the safety feature though, so maybe they added or removed it in later production runs.

Flyin' Ryan RC Yeah, I will take a time over the next few runs :) I just read through that, haha. I might try the bending of the tabs ;) I will see if mine has the safety once i get teh new shaft in.

Flyin' Ryan RC I am not sure why bending them down would help though, since wouldn't that be creating more upward force keeping it out of the water even more, which is the problem? haha

Upward force on the back, which pushes the nose down. Just like the elevator on a plane. ;)

darn near year later now... oh for sure you needed to tweak the trim tabs slightly down, their rear edges, (from rear view) 1 to 1.5mm on the left side and 2 to 2.5mm right side (to counter torque roll), for keeping the V hull down more and carving, punching through instead of lifting+hopping.

Feilun FT011 Bearings. Please check description, took hours to find so I want to share it with everyone. Buy them on Ebay or Amazon or where ever. Took me some time to find the actual dimensions of the bearings. I was tired of waiting over a month to get a shaft assembly for only one bearing set. You can buy 10 bearings for the price of the entire shaft @
