WLtoys - WL913 Speed Boat - Review and Run

Link to purchase from Banggood.com:
RTR ($157) - www.banggood.com/Wltoys-913-Br...
This boat is crazy fast, but pretty much a straight-line runner. It has to be going quite slow in order to turn, but man is it fun to do speed runs with!
Enjoy!

Nice review Ryan. I really like the clean layout of the ESC, motor and steering servo. Also, the water jacket looks much more effective over the usual coiled aluminum tubing. Thumb's up!

[@saltypepper5696]

Nice review!!!! Thinking of getting the other speed boat in your last review.

[@bp3310]

Ryan, in hydros you don't slow down that much. .try running it at higher speeds then what you were doing on the video. Then when you see it will turn at higher speeds then try close to full speed on wider turns and you'll see it will handle the turns, then you'll have more fun for sure. They are meant to skim the water at high speeds. When you get better with more confidence running it at higher speeds on turns then you can go full throttle on turns. If you want to make it handle even better, you can put a turn fin on the back end of the right sponson which make the boat handle the turns even better. Nice review. . .very informative

[@weenieroastpyro5497]

Ryan, look up scale rc hydroplane boats (photos) for the following description. RC hydros have a metal turn blade mounted on the right-hand side sponson. This allows the boat to turn at full speed in a clockwise circuit. It gives the craft the inside "bite" it needs to turn at high speeds. RC boat racing is done in clockwise circuit. Surprised manufacturer overlooked this fundamental of a hydro. That metal return to home rudder blade could be easily modded and remounted for this.

[@nikolaosdenikarias3564]

Nice review Ryan thank you for your support regarding the extra rudder I faces a lot of argues. And. Negatives comments regarding this because I was the first one explain the role of the extra rudder ,because I'm running the boats in the sea water also I always advise to use into the hull a piece of cotton as I describe on my review .Thank you again for your support

[@theimacman]

+Nikolaos Denikarias Kind of shocking there is any confusion as to its purpose... goes to show how few people actually read the instruction manual. lol

[@nikolaosdenikarias3564]

+Flyin' Ryan RC I was run inverted the boat three times you should give short speed with intervals then the boat come to you very easy without any problem at all

[@bensprink9943]

My atomic shuttle 17" brushless swapped boat will run like an airboat upside down. It used to be self righting until I put brushless electronics in it and changed the weight distribution. No issues driving it back to shore in airboat mode

[@3474031750]

Flyin' Ryan RC lol

[@miguelsalami]

You obviously have little experience running rc hydroplanes, Had you utilized the entire pond you could have made wide turns at near full throttle speeds. That is a scaled down hydroplane race boat hull design and does handle high speed turns just not sharp tight ones. That is one of the fastest "Out of the box" RTR rc boats that I have seen & I really like it's layout construction, water cooling for the electronics, sturdy hatch cover attachment & the battery being centered. A very well thought out design process built on a proven fast hull design, so what you get is the best of both worlds here! Good review on a great little boat I would rate it a 9 out of 10 👍👍 THANKS Ryan ❤

[@4501trainman]

All this great model hydroplane is missing is a Skid-Fin that would be on the inside rear of the left sponson(for left turns)which would stick below the waterline. A forward Skid-Fin adds stability in the straightaway,with very little drag,and in the turns it digs in to maintain control for smooth turns.

[@bermyvlogger]

it goes on the right. and u turn right with an rc boat

[@miguelsalami]

Yeah what he said👍 Then we can teach Flyinryan how to fly a hydroplane in the turns RIGHT❗

[@monkeymaster26]

Hello Ryan i find the videos where you review brushless products ALOT more intertaining because there usually better and less meh :D

[@MrCrapman10]

Just add some turning fins, probably doesn't need stabilizers. I was looking at this one too, it reminds me of a prather pickle fork I use to have. Looks like it runs pretty good, all v hulls are super stable but the faster more agile ones aren't so much.

[@ChristienTheAviator]

Hey Flyin Ryan can you make a review on the Wltoys A999 rc truck thankyou

[@thercadventurer4422]

Yo bro I just order one of these from china my question is can you add a turn fin on the sponson or is there no access to the sponsons from inside the boat to put the locking nut on??? Also is it driven by a flex shaft or a wire???

[@simonschmid4648]

Hi there! Have you ever tried if the return trip works when the boat has turned?

[@glennjones5349]

Ryan. How do you change the operating frequency on these boats? Would be nice to race a friend.

[@TheCheezySquirrel]

I just bought a FT012 it’s shipping I love using Ed boats and I like to. Ash them and it seems that it is a very sturdy

[@TheCheezySquirrel]

*bash

[@SHAYEN-cd5qw]

Nice looking boat but my money is buying the FT012 thanks for sharing.

[@highatruthart]

I think the aluminum - so called inverted rudder, should be incorporated into a turn fin on the starboard side. It would do ''a lot'' better.

[@miguelsalami]

The right place to install a turn fin on a hydroplane hull is behind the right front "starboard" sponson. The angle of the fin is a bit critical so making its angle adjustable would be ideal. This is the only way to make an unlimited hydroplane turn Sharp to the right as it's done in racing. This boat will slide around turns rather widely at high speeds without a turn fin. They are not designed to go just in a straight line but instead ride on top of the waters surface instead of through it like a V hull. It takes a good deal of practice to run these hydros successfully without flipping them over. Choppy waters & high winds along with boat wakes are their worst enemies at fast speeds & they can become extremely unstable.

[@jodiek2112]

Hey ryan, like and watch most of reviews. but that metal thing you have mounted on top of the rudder is a turn fin and mounts some where under the boat like on the front left sponson to help it steer!

[@theimacman]

+jodiek2112 Not according to the manual, at least. There is nowhere under the boat to mount it either. Here is a video of someone demoing its purpose, according to the WL913 manual: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2K0aJxthpl1h7c

[@RuudyL]

Looks cool but the FT012 any day, at 85€ against this at 140€ is a no brainer. And this one does not have the submarine mode, lol As usual nice review thanks for this. Looking forward too the next boat

[@steves6557]

+Ruudy L IMO this is an "early AM" RC, when the water is placid. This boat's not going to handle corners or waves because it is not a V hull, but instead, it is skimming over the top of the water. I could see starting my day with an early AM cup of coffee and RC speed jolt, squeezing off a few laps with this boat, lol...

[@RuudyL]

Steve S You paint a nice picture, but I like the Deep V, always had one with a gas motor and speed pipe, miss that sound it made, electric is just not the same. Main thing about the RC hobby is having fun

[@steves6557]

You nailed it Ruudy, having fun is what it's all about. With all the variations, sizes, power types, there's something for just about everyone!

[@grahamblackmore6782]

Hey love the reviews I seen you reviewed the v911 pro id love to hear a review of the v912 there doing them very cheap and I know its not cutting edge but there doing them brushless and id love to hear any tips you may have flying or whatever.for some reason your voice makes me think of Tom petty and thats a good thing.

[@theimacman]

+Graham Blackmore I have considered the V912, but it's a bit old at this point, so I don't think it would be worth the time to review. I will be keeping an eye out for similar new models from WLtoys though. And thanks about my voice... Tom Petty has an awesome voice. :D

[@grahamblackmore6782]

When tom petty isn't on tour he likes to chill out testing the latest RC machines out there.He goes under the alias Flyin Ryin because he doesn't want to take the importance of his RC interest away.My favourite review was the x wing all the negative reviews about it not been a good flyer and you had flying like an eagle enjoyed that one.Happy RCin.

[@theimacman]

Graham Blackmore Hahaha! Or, maybe, when Flyin' Ryan isn't filming RC reviews, he likes to chill out and be a rock star. :)~ Thanks about my X-Wing review! I was really happy about that one too, because I was seeing all the negative reviews of it, and was even having trouble myself. But the day I decided to go out and try filming it, it all came together perfectly and I really got in tune with the model. One might say, the force was with me that day. hahaha

[@certautoserv]

I have this boat I use a 5200mah50c battery goes little faster and longer run time but don't self right when flips like a lot of hydros makes rights better than lefts when it flips the prop does blow it in rudder work opposite direction just use sparingly so don't use up battery but is lot of fun and turns lot of head great boat for the money

[@certautoserv]

when it flips just use transmitter backward while using rudder and give it throttle prop wind will blow it back in

[@shawnblock7335]

I love the airplane video's. I just bought the, Parkzone, Ultra Micro P-51D Mustang, last week & crashed. I whole front-end ripped apart.

[@theimacman]

Oops! Will you be able to glue it back together?

[@pillsareyummy]

Love your videos. However, could you do more reviews on 'reputable' Hobby Grade R/Cs if possible. Thanks.

[@theimacman]

Not really, for several reasons: First, I'm not made of money, so I can't afford to buy a lot of higher end models. A lot of what I review is sponsored to me from Chinese brands. Second, if they're already reputable, there's little point in reviewing them... you can pretty much expect what you're gonna get. I try to review stuff that really needs to be reviewed in order for people to find the good deals on the not-so-reputable stuff. :)

[@pillsareyummy]

Flyin' Ryan RC You don't have to be 'made of money' to review higher end models. For example, you could start dealing cocaine for some extra capital. If you got caught you could explain that it was all for R/C. Any reputable Judge would drop all charges and probably commend you for you work in the R/C community. I'm being facetious of course. You're knowledgeable regarding R/C and a good pilot, you'd be a great reviewer of higher end products. Perhaps as your channel grows certain companies may start sending you products to review, like they've done with other KZbinrs (like jang, from Ultimate R/C). Anything is possible. Good luck with your channel.

[@danielhannagan801]

Nice video, and greatly helped make my decision to buy this. In my order I am going to get an extra top and canopy to custom paint it. Can you tell me if the locking tabs look easy to remove so they can be moved to another canopy? Thanks!

[@theimacman]

+Daniel Hannagan Hmm, I don't recall, and I gave this boat to my friend, so I don't even have it anymore to check that for you. Sorry!

[@danielhannagan801]

Ah! ok thank you for checking back in with me though. Could have sold it to me super cheap :)

[@jerrysmith7166]

those boats are fast at turning right

[@aidanmco]

Whoa. How fast IS that?

[@thomasdebiase1460]

The rudder is set up to turn to the left much better than the right. This is a race option. Should be able to make right turns at full speed with ease. NAMBA member 1029

[@sled_neckx9972]

Is there replacement parts for the ft012

[@shawnblock7335]

Also, my Sport Cub S, seems impossible to control, descend & fly back too myself in beginner mode. I had one-of-them, basically fly away from me in no wind. I should i do differently?

If you have no flying experience, you might want to try practicing in a flight simulator first for a while.

I had one experience rescuing my Apprentice and the boat that qas supposed to bring it back by swimming out to get them ( using tubes) I am investing in a rubber raft,lol. It was in early October. I hope to not swim out to anything,and for safety sake I would never suggest anyone try and swim out to get a boat,especially if you are not a strong swimmer.

[@theimacman]

Yeah, that's why I suggested the FT line of boats... they have self-righting, and it works flawlessly! No worries of having to rescue them at all. :)

[@ghopper150]

I use to do model rockets! Ever think about doing some reviews on them? Expand your horizons? :)

[@theimacman]

+George Hopper Model rockets are what got me into the hobby! When my family first moved out into the country, model rockets seemed like the perfect way to take advantage of all the space. :) I grew out of it though, because it's just so much effort, building, and painting, and cleaning, and chasing them down, and buying new motors, etc, etc. Which all means it would be way too much effort to review them, especially since I would have to drive out to my parents' house every time to test them. :/

[@ghopper150]

+Flyin' Ryan RC Yeah...I liked building and painting the rockets as well, but as in all things, you move on. It was alot of work and time and yes, lost rockets, but it was sure fun!

I don't understand what you mean.

[@rcmctool2918]

Hey Flyin, If the boat flipped over how will the motor get the water cooling??

[@theimacman]

It wouldn't, which is why their method for "flying" it back is risky and could overheat the motor and/or ESC. If you resort to having to do that, I would do it in short bursts and really take your time getting it back.

[@DoRC]

Id think since the motor would essentially be under no load it probably would be ok.. it would be easy to test just by running it in the air and see if it gets hot

[@Zummeli]

As soon as I saw the transmitter, I thought of the spectrum surface radios. I also thought the boat looks a bit 'toyish' if you know what I mean. Great review! :)

[@theimacman]

+Meteor Shower Yeah, the radio is definitely using the shell of Spektrum transmitters. I can see what you mean by toyish... I think it's probably due to the colors and stickers. I think the design itself looks so cool though. :)

[@meteorshower8160]

Flyin' Ryan RC Yes I totally agree with the fact the colours and stickers make it look like that, did the plastic have a quality feel to it? :)

[@TheRCAddict]

It looks very nice however i think the FT012 is not too much slower for a bit less. Great review though man :P

[@theimacman]

+The RCAddict Yeah, but I see them as having entirely different purposes... I think of the WL913 as a drag racer, whereas the FT012 is an indy car. So, it would depend on what sort of racing you want to do. :)

[@TheRCAddict]

Flyin' Ryan RC Well yeah, but this does not even really go faster. It looks cool though :)

[@theimacman]

The RCAddict This is faster, but not by much. But, it is much more stable in a straight line, whereas the FT012 can get a bit twitchy.

[@TheRCAddict]

Flyin' Ryan RC Really? Seemed like maybe the FT was faster. It seemed for sure to me this one was bouncing all over and the FT rock solid. Maybe I did not watch close enough.

[@theimacman]

The RCAddict It's hard to judge speed on video, especially when the boats are different sizes, and I was running them in different places on the lake. The FT012 was zipping around in one small corner, whereas with the WL913, I was doing speed runs across the longest section of the lake. ;) The WL913 had a few small moments of shakiness, but otherwise this thing glides over the surface of the water so smoothly. It's actually quite a rush just doing those high speed runs, but obviously the FT012 is much more fun for all-around running. :)

[@jamesttillman64]

THE PROP WILL WORK UPSIDEDOWN, LOL, WORKS GOOD!!!

[@shawnblock7335]

Yes, i will be able to glue it back together. But, i can't really tell how the motor is supposed to be positioned?!

[@theimacman]

Yeah, that's tricky, since the motor does need a slight angle to it to adjust for the motor torque.

Just use that stupid metal rudder , sharpen the leading edge,, & make it into a turn fin. ''problem solved'',, Just need a screw in angle bracket mount to attach it to the starboard aft sponson. Real easy to make that up from a piece of aluminum angle stock from the Hardware store... Just need a hack saw, & drill ,, for a few holes. A single hole in the bracket & mount ''for that bolt'',, & with using just the one ''Allan'' bolt & nut,, you have a fin that will kick up if you hit something, & not rip up the bracket & rear part of the sponson.

[@theimacman]

+DutchRC ADVENTURES I'm not sure what a "start-nr" is. Are you talking about the metal thing I attached to the rudder? As far as the manual says, it is for what I described... when the boat flips, it is in the water, since the normal rudder would then be out of the water. I found a video of someone demoing it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2K0aJxthpl1h7c

+DutchRC ADVENTURES auctually if you have enough of the rudder in the water the prop will drive the boat back to you i have done this on video with a light hawk charger boat so yes out of water the prop when running will push the boat with the air it will create so steer tho you need to have some of the rudder in the water..

Oh my bad phone auto correct

[@Xenro66]

Damn, that's pretty fast.... But still not as fast as quads, helicopters or planes :D

[@theimacman]

+Jordan O'C (Xenro66) I have several quads, helicopters, and planes that are slower than this. heh

[@Xenro66]

Flyin' Ryan RC Well, they're not designed to go fast lol. Try racing this with a medium sized quad like the Ominus, or a racing plane, I guarantee that the boat will accelerate faster, but still lose :)

[@theimacman]

+Jordan O'C (Xenro66) This thing would blow the Ominus away. Maybe the speed isn't coming across in video, but this is absolutely faster than that. A brushless quad, like the 200 QX, would possibly beat it though. Not really sure what your point is though, or why we're even comparing them. heh

[@Xenro66]

Flyin' Ryan RC How can it if it's just a boat? xP Dunno, just a bit of fun. Maybe I overestimated the speed of the Ominus? Either way, I still say a plane (well, a jet) would beat it lol

[@theimacman]

+Jordan O'C (Xenro66) I don't think any brushed quad can come close to this thing's speed. This has to be doing 40-50mph. The passes I am doing are nearly the entire length of the pond... so, probably about 100feet passes, in a couple seconds. ;)
