I love these little niche RC models. The self-righting is so cool

[@user-or1uu7yt9n]

You just know that some backwoods country boy will be tying a spinner bait on the back of one of these . That would be awesome !!!! LOL!!!

[@paulcasey8074]

I was thinking about that for trolling with a steel leader and either lure or worm with my bait runner surf casting pole rig so when I get a hit, drop the tx, grab the pole, hit the fish(set the hook for non fisherman/fisherwomen) &😊

[@user-or1uu7yt9n]

@@paulcasey8074 Let us know !!! LOL!

[@monkfry]

My wife supports my RC affliction. She saw this and said “where’s the dude? FAIL!!”. She’s the Greatest, and she’s Right!!

[@hollisbourn2857]

Looking looking for an inexpensive way to get my wife to go fishing with me this pretty much fits the ticket self-righting jet platform I think you guys nailed it

[@TheRealRCSparks]

I enjoyed this a great deal.. thank you!

[@MidTrisYT]

WHAT ARE YOU DOIN HERE?!

[@TheRealRCSparks]

@@MidTrisYT I really enjoy the hobby :)

[@greenlightboyzz4life817]

Yessuhhhh I know your going to do a upgrade video on it

[@EthansTop5]

what are you doing here?!

[@MidTrisYT]

@@TheRealRCSparks will you make a review and you do like freestyle? i really wanna see if it’s worth it

[@mifo2000]

UDI RC are fun.. I have my bigger Arrma and Traxxis cars for big areas, crawlers for crawling but we have 3 little UDI drift trucks sitting around our motorbike workshop, mates/good customers will come around for a beer on a friday and we set up a little drift track and go crazy crashing into everything with no damage

[@VS666]

well, i'll be picking a few of these up! my nephew has a massive swim spa and these look perfect for it!

[@pavelack]

watercooling with warm water isnt the ideal cooling but itll definately work

[@Dwayne-we6td]

It's very cool someone's going to make that real quick.

[@bensprink9943]

This would be a cool rescue boat and for the beach

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That thing looks like a lot of fun!

[@silverstatercadventures]

Losi needs to throw the promoto rider on a large scale jetski. That would be a killer idea🤘

[@HappyRCFlyer]

Another great video, as always! 👍🏻

[@jdwogoman6061]

Out of stock everywhere lol nice!! great vid guys

[@davidhill492]

Now we just got to put squirrels on them.

[@midwestboss8808]

Jet ski racing let's go!!!!!!!

[@EJ-74]

Pretty cool

[@toolbaggers]

A hidden propeller is called an impeller on a boat.

[@shanemouton7606]

very cool man! love the video!

[@Jerroldbubbataylor]

Will have to get one for the slough in the back yard

[@austinelmgreen9338]

That's funny lol. I just bought a real jet ski and now I have to get this to go with it😂

[@rcjoe406]

Its a little jet boat with a jet ski top i like it would be good for track racing well done 👏

[@drluketheduke1531]

Ordered brushed but will upgrade!!

[@chrisgreener5599]

Not gonna lie, they look kinda goofy without a rider figure.

[@toolbaggers]

Looks dumb.

[@Murphys_Law9]

u can say that about any rc

[@Luke-en2tk]

​@@Murphys_Law9not really as they sit in a vehicle not on it, I completely agree it should of come with a rider

[@travelinwithTODD]

I have no problem straping a gi Joe to it. Or the six million dollar man doll from when I was a kid

[@nic.25]

It's like an RC motorbike without a rider.

[@PaulTurner24]

Very nice. Gonna have to find me a stunt squirrel!

[@julianorozco761]

Hola Amigo muy divertidas las motos de agua me gustan, muchas gracias y feliz dia

[@roberts208]

these would be perfect for the pool

[@liquidsudagaming4974]

Would love to see this upgraded to the max

[@ICEQWEST.2024]

This Jet-ski is really looking interesting 👌 I wanna test these ones in the lake

[@mitchsterling3266]

I owned one of these when I was little. it was one of my best toys, back then they were not expensive at all and they were sold at dollar general. almost same toy

[@BlackSeaRC]

Well the Inkfish PRO has a 3500KV brushless motor, 80A marine-grade water-cooled ESC and all the electronics are 2.4GHz hobby-grade with fully-proportional control. This is significantly more advanced than the 'toy-grade' units with propellers at the back.

[@RC4us]

i guess if boats is your thing this is pretty cool cause coming in as a basher its still super COOL great video

[@jongonegone1262]

1/8 scale nitro version, o.s. .21 rtr and kit. good video man $$$

[@Rondawwg]

Just ordered the brushless one from Bangood!

[@hotboyracing]

I need one of these on a trailer behind the scale truck

[@NathanStorer-RC]

Yeah, definitely need a rider there. Even a really cheap rider would make it looks less silly.

[@jimbo4203]

Neat 😊

[@FarmerFpv]

Aw, they're cute. I have the Koyosho surfer. So much fun in Half Moon Bay surfing the waves of the Pacific Ocean. At least it won't be me being eaten by a shark. Too many attacks and close calls lately.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Good spot for it! Is that where you live? I'm from Santa Cruz. -Brett

[@MrCveedub]

I've been looking at these for a bit, just with the were a little bit smaller

[@michaelregan427]

Looks pretty good, if the driveline is tough aka shaft and impeller it should be capable of more power and speed.

[@user-ui1ew3ws9z]

We need another video of this brushless product

[@bambikilla4457]

already bought one had to

[@JCHKeys]

Well, I am going to have to get this, fabricate a trailer, and tow behind my TRX4....

[@macbook802]

Yeah, Ed's daughters dolls, riiight...

[@briansmythe3000]

cool

[@toolbaggers]

Clever using the momentum of the impeller to self-right.

[@jonaspajari1246]

The momentum of the rotor* yes as that probably weighs like 8 times more than the impeller. Or maybe we should just say the whole drivetrain.

[@BlackSeaRC]

It only works properly when the battery is close to full though...so don't capsize at the end of your run!

[@FallingFlying.]

Waits for your lure fishing video :-)

[@01VIPER27]

@AMain Hobbies Can I change the receiver on this?

[@alloutofdonuts3998]

I was picturing a little rider; fpv guy/ robot, like a Caddx vista or dji03 with camera head on a gimbal with headtracking, with his little vTx backpack lol 😅. That’d be so awesome 😮

[@Tomc528]

My GI Joe is gonna get a new ride.

[@jeeperzcreeperzz]

Essential an rc boat with handle bars

[@druseph38]

Can these run on lipo's or just the li-ion supplied?

[@vigilanterc]

Impeller. Not propeller. No biggie. Just a small thing. Great videos as always!

[@bostonmass7679]

It looks like a gi joe could fit perfect on that cool jetski,please find some and do another video so you can stop the hate!

[@whirlybirdrc]

All it needs is a tiny scale rider!!

[@BenJoe_RC]

definitely agree it needs a figure

[@ttv.bettingchain2642]

Will a Traxxas 2200 mah battery fit?

[@FLG8r]

needs a figure; perhaps a 1/6 scale so it would be the water equivalent of the Losi Pro Moto MX

[@BlackSeaRC]

I think they suggest 6 or 7 inch so that is around 1:10 scale.

[@PachezZ]

its 10th scale, look at the dimensions compared to Seadoo GTX (that seems to be "inspiration" for this)

[@lylekehrer6159]

Should've had compared the size with the 18 scale maybe even the SCX 24 or the FMS Blazer maybe be a nice size.

[@95mushroom]

Is the brushless motor actually watercooled? Looks like an outrunner that really can't be. The water tube looks like it just runs to the esc, not the motor.

[@aydinlutmergp4885]

Looks like the mounting plate the motor is on is water-cooled, if it's metal anyway. I had a boat that was like that

[@robertgill448]

Get a Stormy Daniel’s doll. (Nude). It’s out there.

[@jzbreezio]

I want one of those jetskis for my hamster

[@dmd58]

Good review but testing the speed comparison in a wake pond isn't sufficient. lol this damn thing is on back order!

[@borisviktory]

😊nice💪👍👋

[@gregcarey5944]

FYI the correct term is watercraft. Jet Ski is a Kawasaki trademark as Waverunner is a Yamaha trademark. All makes and models are considered "watercraft "whether it's a standup, 2 seater or 3 seater sit-down model. The more you know. lol

[@michaelinzitari]

thats what i was thinking. In Australia we call these PWC = Personal Watercraft

[@hollisbourn2857]

Better check with RCSparks he would probably love to play with this at the Creek

[@kevinklein9565]

Kind out sound like real jet skis too

[@motok1d]

Needs a rider like the promoto

[@kraftcraft2934]

Fishing for bluegill

[@KentRoads]

wave runner you're thinking N64 :D

[@untrainableee]

It a jet boat with a see do body got a fiew jet boats looks fun

@@AMain_Hobbies ok thanks you…

[@marccilliers4808]

What are the IPX rating on the jetskies??

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Hmm, not sure, it's not stated anywhere. -Brett

[@IsaacSchultz-lz8jc]

Ip 67 rated esc and motor

[@YARCWest]

No jump in the middle of the pond?

[@Dylansupraharris]

the jet ski behind a small toota is that exact scale lol seadoo 300 are 14ft lol

[@gunsandcommissions]

6-1/2" tall? That's how tall most Bandai Godzilla figures are.....

[@PachezZ]

looks pretty close to Seadoo GTX which would made it almost perfect 1/10 scale

[@BlackSeaRC]

In my video, I checked the dimensions against the Sea-Doo RXT-X 300 (2023) and, yes, it is exactly 1:10 scale. See my full review and testing on a nice stretch of river on my channel if you are interested.

[@BlackSeaRC]

@@PachezZ Thank you!

[@motosessions]

Can these be run in salt water?

[@BlackSeaRC]

The manufacturer recommends not to use it in salt water.

[@cloudkensarmiento4306]

You should name it octocski Since for the oct October and jet ski The octoc and ski octopus.❤❤

[@DoRC]

6:20 that was quite the steering lag.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Yeah, the 2-n-1 rx unit has some lag. We mentioned it a little at the end of the video, but the lag wasn't felt much when actually driving, but its very noticeable testing it on the bench. The dedicated rx in the BL model is much better, with no noticeable lag. -Brett

[@DoRC]

@@AMain_Hobbies Good to know. I wish I had more places in water to run I'd love to get one of these.

[@asykarcompany]

Hey, does the underwater propeler distrub fish in the pond? Please make review video about swamp RC. Here in my area, the water pond is always full of fish and leaf too.

[@toolbaggers]

Yes. It's like if an unwanted guest did donuts in your living room with a dirt bike.

[@Laqwisha1669]

How fast is it🤨

[@Tevobmx1]

i want one

[@TheKRU251]

I agree with the comment " looks goofy without a rider" etc. I like the self righting feature, but won't do that with the desired/essential rider doll on board. Shame a doll figure isn't moulded onto the seat and fully enclosed ( buoyancy) which would aid the tip-over issues to start with !

[@BlackSeaRC]

Have you seen the self-righting feature being tested with a figure onboard then?

[@TheKRU251]

@@BlackSeaRC No, but seeing the height of the doll used on the bench I can imagine the drag would just be too much to allow the jet ski to flip upright. Would like to see a 'real world test' of same scenario though.

[@BlackSeaRC]

@@TheKRU251 I'm going to test it when I get mine. I already have a figure in mind that will hopefully match the scale properly.

[@TheKRU251]

@@BlackSeaRC excellent. Please advise when tried. Be interested in the results !!!!!

[@BlackSeaRC]

@@TheKRU251 I also have to find a reliable way to secure the figure as I don't like the idea to glue it in position.

[@toolbaggers]

It's a PWCs, personal watercraft. Proper nouns like Jet Ski, Sea Doo, WaveRunner are brand name trademarks. Unless you like calling all American muscle cars "Mustangs."

[@fishycomics]

Normally these boats are already self righting, to have a switch is like to me now a step back if asked as technology is way in advance today

[@jackofallhobbies1545]

After the losi dirt bike the jet ski needs a rider

[@truckerray7533]

I wannuh see the propeller!!!

[@shyancole2490]

I could easily be wrong but from the video it looks to be about 8th scale maybe 7th scale I think a Traxxas UDR would have been a good size comparison the Traxxas UDR is about 1/7 and a 1/2 scale

[@AMain_Hobbies]

I think you're right, the UDR would be spot on. Can you imagine a trailer with two jet skis behind the UDR, would look so cool! -Brett

[@myharryface]

They should have an optional rider. -- Like Losi would have shipped that awesome motorbike without a rider. LOL. Big miss here.

[@denisesmith6447]

Does it come in red

[@BlackSeaRC]

There are only two versions at present. UDI023 is grey with green graphics. UDI023PRO is black with yellow graphics.

[@giopirmisashvili5514]

❤😊

[@1ubby]

I want a snowmobile

[@jan-hg9vi]

Why would they make this without a rider? I does leave the option to pick your own frond the hundreds that are out there. I think I will have to get one but wait end get a used one for half price.

[@jagergerg9771]

Decently priced

[@Jfondeur82]

What's the battery life?

[@AMain_Hobbies]

The manual says about 10 minutes of continuous use. We got more time of out of them, 15-20 minutes, but we stopped and chatted and probably waisted a few minutes. It just depends on how hard you drive the throttle. -Brett

[@user-fx8nd3gh4t]

どこえ行けば購入できますか?金額もわかりますか?

[@austinkoeppen6122]

With quick math it's right around 1/9 scale.

[@garplin]

is this toy grade?

[@BlackSeaRC]

Absolutely not. Check the electronics used.

[@garplin]

the build sees toy like@@BlackSeaRC

[@IntegraDIY]

i think they should have canned the whole jet-ski thing and just made them mini boats. put little spoilers on them, with bright neon colors and it’ll be much better to race with friends

The only way I can play that here in the philippines is through dirty canals and dirty rivers :D or if i can afford a pool.
