This is why RC boats are a PAIN!

On this episode of 10th Scale Garage, we take out our 2-stroke GAS RC boats and prove once again that we are a glutton for punishment as they prove to be a pain. We also crash our brand new Drone.

[@oxman1834]

Absolutely right. Just like a real boat. Nothing but head aches!!

[@RCplamodel]

Great video! 👍Perfect camera work, a very nice RC Ship, Waves and a great location! 👏 🙏👏

[@NathanStorer-RC]

I'm a sucker for good 360 footage. Really enjoyed this one 🙂

[@rcmakingtracks18]

Great job guys, some really nice camera work... well done. John

[@mitsuman5555]

This one definitely had a vibe. Nice.

[@FarmerFpv]

I have a Prather 72-inch fiberglass hull which originally had 2 engines. I converted it to an 8000-watt 16000-watt peak power electric bike motor and esc. Used a servo tester to convert the throttle signal for my receiver and a 100.8v or 24s 35ah lithium battery. Its top speed was 40mph. I was stupid enough to think that if this setup pushes a bike to 70 mph it would do the same with the boat, lol.

[@10thScaleGarage]

Boats are so inefficient!

[@CozyRC]

That was a fun video😎 I loved the running shots from the actual boat!

[@10thScaleGarage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@snuzum06]

Wow that onboard boat camera footage is spectacular!

[@chadbiermann3380]

Great footage!!😊

[@10thScaleGarage]

Thanks!

[@oxman1834]

I have predecessor to that the 48 rockstar! Also a proboat. Only ever had two tanks of fuel thru it!!

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Great footage

[@10thScaleGarage]

Hey thanks!

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Cool video nice boat

[@OppositePengui]

Surprised you guys could find the drone in that bushy rubble

[@10thScaleGarage]

It wasn’t easy.

[@Livlifetaistdeth]

That huge Zelos is absolutely awesome!

[@10thScaleGarage]

Thanks! It took a lot of work to make it run reliably.

[@Wanted1069]

@10thscale... I dunno what the deal was with your Zelos, but Ive never had an issue with mine! It has been perfect everytime I've taken it out🤷‍♂️ Running video on my page...

[@Wanted1069]

I will say, I do wanna add a pump.. She does get hot AF!

[@percivale6511]

That's why they call it a BOAT, stands for Break Out Another Thousand.....! 🤣

[@RCAddictsGarage]

That Zelos is a beast👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾

[@10thScaleGarage]

Brappppppo

[@johnsmith-oh2xo]

No the Enforcer super gator is a beast the Proboat is a toy lol. Enforcer has been making real fiberglass boats for 40 years or more they are now owned by Bonzi which is another real rc boat maker..

[@The70s_child]

Artistic flair on full show keep it up kiddas (UK Liverpool slang) 👍

[@10thScaleGarage]

Cheers

[@bdanielcal4608]

when the cord does that tapping on the pull start case will release the spring usually

[@10thScaleGarage]

Well NOW you tell me! Haha. Good looking out.

[@grrfy]

AHar me hearties!

[@CarlBalzer]

I want one!

[@10thScaleGarage]

You think you do….. but they’re a pain in the ass.

[@hungrydingo7037]

What shades you guys wearing?

[@mossberg585]

Just want to know what water pump you are using in the 48g

[@mikep4823]

I have 2 zelos 38 electric love them. Also a gas 48g what a piece of junk regret buying it. The shaft keeps fkn up loosens then boat becomes dead in the water. Its a shelf queen and that is where it stays.

[@Pholiage]

Always wanted to buy a 48G but now that I was looking for one they are discontinued...

[@10thScaleGarage]

Check out Enforcer boats or Banzai boats. They make giant 2-stroke gas boats like this, and the detail is insane.

[@rcfan1013]

Personal question, I’m curious. Are you guys partners or just good friends? No hate or anything! Big time fan! Just curious!

[@10thScaleGarage]

Hahahaha. We actually get asked this question a lot. We’re BFFs. Have been for a long time. Ethan actually dated my older sister briefly wayyyyyy back in the day. He’s just a solid dude and videos are always more fun when he’s around.

[@lornefrancis9231]

2 fin prop all u need crazzy difference

[@10thScaleGarage]

I know…… soon.

[@claymarkham9418]

What song is used?

[@RCnerd74]

Switch to electric powered race boats... And you are good to go😎

[@CarlBalzer]

That camera looks familiar...

[@10thScaleGarage]

My homie let me borrow it.

[@brianlangford7278]

Lol

[@GerardRusso]

you are not starting it correctly you have to put your finger over the carb until gas is on your finger after you pull the cord then give it full throttle and pull or it will never start

[@GeorgiaBoyRC]

The definition of a boat: A hull in the water you pour money into. 😂

[@10thScaleGarage]

Bring Out Another Thousand

[@jaycevessier7554]

I mean if you’d get rid of the nitro junk and go electric you would have problems

[@10thScaleGarage]

It’s not nitro.

[@chrisfine8146]

Go Electric and be fast and happier

[@10thScaleGarage]

We have so many electric boats. 2-stroke is (sometimes) more fun.

[@burtronomaniac]

Gas is bad ass that’s why ⛽️⛽️⛽️

[@bdanielcal4608]

Says no real rc guy ever

[@fatjoecanadian81]

If you want a reliable RC boat you go electric

[@10thScaleGarage]

We have a ton of electric boats. Sometimes we like to torture ourselves.

[@fatjoecanadian81]

Lol right on me to lol

[@michaelharrison6978]

Dang my boats start 1st are second pull

[@DougDirt10]

I see much humor. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmGYfYOshKucl80
