Udirc 2.4GHz High Speed Remote Control Electric Boat (Black)

Amazing Boat! I’ve been an R/C enthusiast for the better part of 40 yrs and have to say this is the best, most fun R/C boat I have ran across. The boat is very fast, extremely durable and responsive. Great control range as well, I’m running the boats on a 3.5 acre lake and have full control across the entire lake. The boat is approx. 12 inches in length, water cooling intake port on bottom, power on/off sensor on the bottom, flip sensor on the top, USB charged battery. I purchased two of these boats for some afternoon fun with friends, I was not disappointed, these boats are a blast! If you’re into the bump & grind, side by side racing, these quick little boats can be very exciting. We’ve done about everything you could do to a R/C boat… Side swiping each other rolling boats over the top of one another, (I can assure you the self-righting feature works great!) accidentally catching a rogue waves near shore launching the boat into surrounding bushes, running them into kayaks & docks, and often crashing them into one another or other R/C boats. Regardless of what we have put these boats through they continue to work flawlessly with no damage. I ordered two boats the first go around, I’m back to order an additional two boats and spare batteries. Extend the fun, BUY SPARE batteries! The charge last approx. 20 minutes. When the low battery alarm begins to sound I have been getting an additional 3-5 minutes of use until it begins to slow then it has to be brought to shore. My only caution would be watch the motor/battery temperature. The motor has a liquid cooling system that picks up water on the bottom rear and exits it out to the side. Keep an eye on the water inlet port so that is stays clear of debris so water can flow through the system. Great boats, I’ve bought 4 of them now w/ 4 spare batteries.

This is the best working rc boat for the price. The boat does everything it is supposed to. The boat is fast, but then when it gets up on plane (yes it goes fast enough to do that) it flies! The boat is really fun and easy to use. I would recommend using it in a relatively large space like a pond so it can reach its full speed.(in a pool it has limited space) I would also recommend getting extra batteries for the boat for more running time. On amazon, you can by 3 batteries with a 3 battery charger for only around 20 dollars! This will give you a lot more running time, but you might have to let the boat cool off a little after each battery use. You can also buy batteries individually for around 8 dollars. I would highly recommend this boat. Have been using it for months and not a single issue.

This is actually a really nice and fast boat, but it has a few well known issues that can easily be fixed.... Do these things as soon as you confirm your boat is working. A big issue with this boat is water getting in, and it's happening in a few spots that need attention. The gasket on the top cover is too thin, so you have to either add another on top so it doubles the thickness, use removable waterproof tape on the top cover, or remove the gasket and fill the gap in the top cover with gasket sealant... So it creates a new gasket. Next you will need some clear silicone, add some inside the boat around the rubber cone that the rudder shaft comes through, you should put some marine grease inside the cone to water seal it completely. Also, add some silicone inside the boat around the water exit tube, and any gaps around the wires on the battery. You must keep the battery dry, use silicone on it! Although the water cooling somewhat works, the motor gets too hot. Open a gap on the top of the cooling coil, slightly bend the first coil up a little and it will expose an air intake hole for the motor. The motor will run cooler and last longer. Apply some waterproof tape over all the connectors inside the boat. Adding a bit of foam in the nose of the boat will prevent it from sinking, but instead float like a cork. Finally, if you readjust the position of the arm on the servo motor and put the rod to the rudder in a different hole, you can fix the veering to the left problem and also allow the rudder to turn more in each direction. It will steer left and right better. Do these things and what you drive on the water will seem like a completely different boat.

I always wanted an RC boat but was so afraid to spend tons of money and see it go under water after few runs. I live in Area where there are lot of small to large ponds and lakes. After years of desire I finally decide seeing the price of this venom boat to buy it. People don't wait buy this. This one is fool proof and RC for dummies. You need no skill and pretty much anyone can run it. I have driven it in all kinds of lakes and ponds. I have not got it stuck anywhere. Some situation it has got slower when it's propellers pick up some debris. Our near by ponds have lot of tortoise and boat when it hits tortoise it goes up and turns upside down. You can get it back running by doing backward n upward throttle. This function is life saver. I have tested its max reach and it does go almost out of your eyesight. Battery life I get is around 9-10 mins only. It is because I drive it like I stole it. :). I got an additional battery to extend my play time. Hope it stays strong for awhile.

I ordered this for my son for his birthday. I had bought the slightly smaller "bullet" version for my other son and he's had it for several months and with a few minor repairs it still runs great. Not so much with this one.The first one came and my son ran it through one charge of the battery and it worked fine. When he charged the battery and tried again the boat kept stopping and stalling and losing power. Finally it wouldn't run at all and we had to wade out in freezing water to recover it. Using Amazon's awesome return system I sent it back and, assuming we had just got a lemon, immediately ordered another one.The second boat came today and from the very beginning had the exact same problem as the first one.Two boats, both won't run, both were useless and had to be sent back. I'd say buyer beware on this model.
