RE: GAS OUTBOARD guys this is our new home
Hi Dion/Latiff
The rc surfer is not a new concept - it was brought out by an American in 1980 then bought from him by Kyhoso.
They produced a good many of them for a few years - BUT - like most all things made in China - they look good - BUT - dont quite cut it.
They stooped producing them a few years back.
There are a number of them being 'modified' to surf well and have achieved some really amazing Surf Rides in waves up to 6 ft face.
I have been wanting to do our own product for some time now and done plenty of research for it to have a AAA rating
AWESOME - AFFORDABLE - AVAILABLE.................................. leave one of these out - and - well - whats the use.
The man we have designed to be 'flexible' so there is less risk of him breaking........in big surf.
Latiff - Like most all things - some one will copy it - but - there is more to a product than meets the eye.
I am working to make the rc surfer as affordable as possible - built to run with smaller brushless motor/esc/and lipos so as to keep the cost down.
A RTS ( Ready to surf) Bro Surfer will retail at about $500 complete including a 2.4 G pistol grip radio.
Dion - they are made for 1 - 6 ft surf face - but are real fun behind the boat when you have done enough shiing for the day .
They can do back flips - forward rolls - side rolls - whatever manuver you can come up with using the power /speed /steering and lip of the wave.
Its a BLAST !!!!
