We MADE A HUGE MISTAKE!!! - Boat Week Follow Up!

Check out the brand new Sonicwake RC boat here: bit.ly/3tFKcI1
Check out the new Eachine ebt05 rc boat here: bit.ly/3NemBWl
During boat week 1 of 2022 we made a huge mistake. We forgot to take off the rudder protector from the Sonicwake V2 which prevented the water-cooling system from working. We got about a minute longer of run time with the water cooling system functioning. Also, on the Eachine boat, we didn't put the haul cover on correctly which caused the excess water inside. Sometimes we make mistakes. LoL!!

Hey Nate does the Eachine have a rubber bow protector on it? My little Pro Boat came with one that’s removable I assume this one is too?

[@wayneable4454]

I have the same and my does the same thing and I never knew there was a guard on the back so tomorrow I’m gonna try that out cause I can run full speed for like 25 second and it dies so quick I have to keep bumping the trigger to get it going again so I hope this works cause I just bought the boat thank you for showing me the guard wow never seen it before

The honesty and human factor is why this channel tops my list! I had to actually block another RC channel from my system for not only misleading folks but for actually calling me out in a video for a simple suggestion 95%+ users already do by default! The majority of my personal videos are my less graceful moments as I DO prefer the human side. Perfection is boring. Keep it real!

[@TheRcSaylors]

May I ask what the suggestion was that 95% of people do!? Also, thanks! 😉👍😁😎⚓️

[@kmatch1]

@@TheRcSaylors It’s as simple as using a default flight timer to trigger above x% for an accurate flight time versus setting it to a one time trigger, landing, adjusting things, chatting, flying, landing and then *“guesstimating”* flight times to well above known averages. This was misleading to new folks who may not know better and could cause problems if they set their timers too high accordingly. I mentioned it twice as a suggestion and I was called out for it in a following video then ripped for mentioning the cheap public shot! I deal with tons of folks - none so easily offended! A lot of people seemed to support my thoughts on the subject based on 👍. Then attacks were made for another watcher suggesting how to fly safely by avoiding flying at a camera operator. I can’t imagine you guys or ANY others I follow doing this! Keep it real! Feel free to delete this from public if needed as I don’t have yer email!

[@Screwball6986]

The thing you were referencing about the prop taking a bit of time to bite the water and get moving, is called cavitation. Cavitation is the forming of vacuum pockets due to water (at a certain speed) not being able to re-displace the area the prop is moving through quickly enough. When you apply immediate (with no ramp) rpm to the prop, given a certain speed (also depth, but that's for submarines), you can cause cavitation. As you can only have a prop spinning at a certain RPM, given a certain over-the-water speed or else you will cavitate the prop. Not only is it what causes that behavior upon initial acceleration, it also is mostly avoided by operators of anything with a prop in water because in addition to being loud, vastly inefficient (you'll accelerate faster at an RPM that is just below cavitation speed, then increase RPM as you get moving), because it has the physical effect of running sandpaper constantly over the prop.

[@stanbrewer6079]

Cavitation is also what happens when you don't brush your teeth🦷🦷. 😁😁🥴🥴.

[@darkiee69]

Nate: get some colored tape and put on the rudder protector.

[@jeffwest5080]

It’s both, forward momentum and prop blast, some boats have the pick up dead in the prop blast so it picks up water super easy. With water pick up rudders you won’t get as much from the prop blast as you will from forward momentum.

[@CharlesFlahertyB]

Rc Saylors are the Best! Your Humbleness is Great and Inspiring! 😇🤗

[@andreasbuttner-land1890]

Hi RcSaylors, your channel has been always very valuable for all your subscribers, but now I'd like to say, that with this Follow Up video, you've increased the value of your channel. I think, that the Pro Boat Sonic wake has been from the beginning and still is an excellent choice, but the version 2 comes with so many fantastic upgrades, that it is even a much better choice. Of course, for a bit higher price. But I have to commit, that I would love it very much, if you' would give a sailboat a chance on your channel. There are excellent videos on KZbin available about trimming a sailboat like a Dragon Force 65, so therefore you don't need to be experts about a sailboat, but you could just show your subscribers the relaxing joy of sailing a sailboat. Just for a couple of minutes in the end of a video, where you're showing another boat. Keep producing such excellent videos! With regards, Andreas

[@barthennin6088]

Mistakes are good...this way we ALL learn!..It would never have occurred to me to check the water hoses for wetness on the inside to prove the cooling system is working.

[@JXZ2]

👋 thank you for the update. Love watching rc boats, wasn't really into them enough to buy one, but it's nice to watch.

[@BillKisel]

Seeing as they were follow-ups featuring the two boats in one video worked okay for me. Might also work if you were doing a comparison video of 2 or more similar models be they boats, planes or ground vehicles.

[@jordancoleman2402]

You guys rock love the videos and thanks for all the info👍 you have just gotten a sub and I'll be sure to tell all my other RC homies about you're videos 👍

[@IJustGotHere]

Thanks for the follow up!

[@marxboatworx]

Im just amazed the rudder cover didnt come off on the first run..must a been vacuumed on whilst in the water. The fact it was run totally dry and didnt cook any electronics is a testament to ProBoat build quality. The tube on the back of the Eachine boat, for water cooling, is called a ‘Blast pick up’. It is a great system that allows cooling to run, even whilst a low speed and comes from the water coming off the prop, and yes, is enhanced at high speed. Causes some slight drag, but still a reliable system.

[@BenjySparky]

Follow up videos, showing changes you've made to RCs, your thoughts after having them for a while and getting in some more use, etc... is a great thing! Please keep the follow up videos coming, whether it be one model, a pair for comparison , or just because they both need a follow up on the same day and 1 video is easier, or a group of models, showing a whole group or family of models for comparison, or to show progression, or recommend which one people should get first, or what is better for what use, best, etc.... however you do them, follow up videos are great!

I really like your honesty and able to admit your mistakes! You have great content and I’m a subscriber to your channel just for your honesty! Keep it up

[@gordonlovett71]

Along with removing the batteries and leaving the cover off to allow insides of the boat hull to air dry, I also recommend pulling the prop drive shaft and wiping off any water and grease as well. Allow drive shaft and stuffing tube to dry out before applying new grease and reinstalling shaft. It would also be a good time to spray electrical connections and electronics with a corrosion inhibitor. Then add a drop or two of a good quality machine oil to the front and rear bearings of the motor. These few maintenance procedures will help your rc boat run better and last longer.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Amazing tips Gordon! Thanks for sharing! 👍😁😎⚓️

The pulsing can be caused by corrosion on the motor connectors. That was the problem with mine. Check your connectors.

[@michaelmickoberhaus8009]

The guys I've known always grease the drive shaft before use and that helps to keep water out. Are there boats that don't require this?

[@thomascalleson861]

I have the impulse 31 Trish fast as the old one you rented a Thomas Thomas from Lake Wales

[@maximus7714]

the pulsing was probably caused by some water getting in your receiver

[@robertfournier7050]

About 32 mph. It's a good boat. weight slows it down. If you change the prop to a 35 mm or even 37 mm you speed and agility will increase.

[@geokon7192]

I’m getting glitching electronics on my new ebt04 aswell during run. At one point had no throttle only steering. The throttle eventually start working the next day. Can only assume the hand full of droplets of water that are getting in are causing issues.

[@lukappaseidue]

how have you solved your gltich steering. Mine suffered of it too

[@nick_dizzle]

That kind of burnout before it takes off is called cavitation I believe.

[@AB-80X]

Actually that's ventilation. It pulls in air from the surface. Cavitation is something completely different.

[@roadstar499]

Is the emachine same plastic as udi arrow? or cheaper low grade ??? thanks

[@coolsly64]

Bruh u need to adjust the trim tabs on the sonicwake cuz u running very wet which means prop is underwater creating drag and runs much slower you need to run a prop that will run dryer (aka higher pitch and rake I would go with a 4519 ose prop and a ose upgraded shaft for it)

[@twan_kamp3327]

Hi im a little lat but does it come with the batteries

[@ballesterosgorge8537]

Cavitation is when The prop is picking up Air.

[@AB-80X]

No. Cavitation is when low pressure causes the water on the surface of the blades to boil and thus create small steam pockets. What you see here is called ventilation, and is caused by the prop pulling in air from the surface.

[@YAmIBroken]

I'm looking at getting the AreoScout. I see it has that ic3 connection, that Udi Arrow boat has a xt60. If I get extra batteries; the smart with the ic3, will that connector work with the Arrow boat, or vice versa? (without a conversation adapter) I'm hoping that this will work, have extra universal batteries for both.

[@TheRcSaylors]

So, a lot of people don’t talk about this but most XT30 plugs work with IC3 plugs! It’s pretty nice! 👍😁😎⚓️

[@kmatch1]

Someone correct me if I’m remembering wrong… XT60 and EC3 work well together in any combo device/battery. I believe the IC3 on the device will work with EC3 on the battery but NOT work with XT60 on the battery although they look alike. Anyone remember this as different?

[@thercadventurer4422]

Yo best bet for the sonicwake is to get either a dasaboata flex shaft and prop (the stock shaft is very tight fit in the tube and is typically not well balanced and kills alot of the performance) the dasboata is very very slightly smaller and is very well balanced flex shaft and then the prop is made for balance and sharpness and is made by a company to compete in racing so it will get more speed but less run time but with the prop shaft being less friction and better balance that gives you more run time but for you I would just get the stock prop balanced and sharpened that will give you the best of both worlds. Also the best way to run an rc boat for length of run time and also less wear and tear on your boats electronics is to slowly go off the line then when your on plane then open the throttle up for maybe 6p seconds tops short bursts like a drag car run is how you drive a boat like that properly

[@thercadventurer4422]

60 seconds not 6p

[@AB-80X]

You can get a good one piece prop shaft from OSE, and Doctor Prop makes a CNC stainless prop for the Sonic that runs fast but does not kill the runtime. You have to factor in that most people need the boat to run well and be fun. They are not trying to wring out every single last mph, and they rarely have the knowledge to set it up for that. Heck, even a TFL CNC prop which is pretty cheap will work better than the stock and give longer runtimes. Also, getting an OSE shaft and TFL prop means you don't have to deal with that asshole Dasboata.
