Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

Just ordered one of these from HK:
http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store...ng_Boat_(570mm)

Looks like its the same boat as Venom sells (MissExcite) for over $300.....will post a review if anyone wants it, when Iget it in the water (hopefully a week or two)
Anyone have this boat?If so, let me know your thoughts....

Thanks!

Awesome bro!
I want one of those, and for what they cost, how could anyone go wrong ;)

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

Yes, that is what I am thinking! Going to run it stock and see how she goes.....thinking it might need some weight to avoid flipping (thinking the 5,000mah batteries will be best) http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...ular_smile.gif

Great boat, great price! Hull alone from OSE sells for $85. This one is finished nicely.

I still want the 25" Cat though...

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

Find us a great price on that little cat Ray..
I may pick up this hydro to

You guys talking about the SAGA 650mm mini cat? If so, that thing is sweet.....HKhas a 32inch one with dual drives....

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless

Did you see this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30iw8aC6w
Looks like the same boat, not sure what motor/battery/prop combo they are running vs the stock HKone.

OK, so she has arrived!  Very nice boat.  Same HULL as the Excite by Venom.
Some notes - Hull is very nice, paint job is very nice.  Servo and motor mount are very stable (not zip tied etc).  Has a nice turn fin as well (should help with handling).  Did a test run in the bathub, minimal amount of water after sitting in there for 30min (maybe a few drops)

Should get her out in the water in a day or two.....if she handles well, this is a steal for the price.  You simply can beat a fiberglass hull like this, with a brushless motor and esc for under $140.

venom does not make the excite
its a copy of the Delta Force Vortex ;)

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

You might be right, but I can tell you this is the exact same hull as the EVO<a href="http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&amp;I=LXZEK6&amp;P=7">

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

they both come from the same place
venom makes nothing... they put their name on others products and sell as their own [:-]

There's a bit of a thread running on it over at R/C Groups

Very cool!
I have several 2200mah 3s packs that I could wire in parallel to make a 3s 4400mah pack ;)
Ohhhh I need one of these little guys! :D

RE: Red Evo Twin Brushless
 

Ok, so had my maiden voayge with this boat.
Ran 2650Mah for about 10min.  Boat handles extermely well for a hydro...almost flipped it once come out of a full throttle left hand turn (has a turn fin for optimal right hand turns).  Other than that I could run full bore and not even come close.  Had 15mph winds too, didn't matter.
Would like to say I hit 40, but I think its more like 35mph out of the box (box says 40plus, but I am not so sure....).  Its very fast for a stock boat, just don't think its 40mph.....
Taking her back tomorrow, trying a different pack, see if it makes a difference.

Great boat though.  Very little water in the hull, handles well for a hydro and is very fast......

Gonna try and get a vid soon, need to get a buddy of mine out there!
