- This is in my opinion the best first boat to buy. It comes ready to run with a battery and charger. The battery is a 3s LIPO and is really good. The Brushless power makes this boat literally scream across the water! It really takes off and gives a impressive rooster tail blowing out the back as it darts away from the starting point. Definitely is a great first boat for anyone thinking about giving RC boating a try. The UDI009 Rapid is also a great boat and is pretty quick until you blast around with the Arrow. The Rapid works well on calm smaller waters like a pond or wind protected small lake but if you have the room to play buy the UDI005 and you wont be dissatisfied!
Beast mode like lightning fast 😊👍🏁
It's so much fun!
Awesome video I just bought one and I would love a battery tray
Great boat.. Had mine about a year
You got really lucky getting the two best boats for the money. I have both of these too. I put a 50 amp esc and my FlySky receiver in my Rapid and a 1500 mAh 3s in it...I could barely keep it on the water! It literally tries to jump out of the water and the motor takes it like a champ with no problems! Get a metal prop and sharpen it like a razor and watch it chew through that moss. 😉😂😂😂. P.S. put a 14.8 4S in your Arrow and watch it do something insane! Don't worry, I've ran dozens of 14.8's thru mine with stock electronics! Enjoy your new boat.😉😉😉
Looks like a great job..I would love to have that STL file if you don’t mind
3S, i will stick with my Vector SR65 from Volantex. No need to 3d print anything to fit larger batteries. Uses xt60 stock. As for 4S, I got an SR80 pro coming in a couple weeks.
They look pretty sweet. Maybe I’ll have to get one of those too and do a comparison.
I have a ProBoat Sonicwake that was about 4 times more money and I got this for my rescue boat the problem is I prefer this little one over my Sonicwake it's a rocket on rails and the battery's are super cheap.
Yeah , I'm loving this thing !
I would love that battery tray stl
Shoot me an email at huntjerryc@gmail.com and I’ll send it to you.
I bought one myself and it is a beast,Great review, I’m looking at the vector pro and might get that one in the future but this one is a beauty I changed my plugs to ec3 and got 2 more battery’s for I’m thinking of put a stronger esc and motor and try getting a 4s or even a 6s battery for mine, overall the review was nice and i am definitely looking forward to more vids and will subscribe!
Thanks! I can’t imagine this boat with more power! It would be crazy on 4s!
@@hobbycollector1392 yup but make sure you save some power to come to shore it runs out of power last minute 😂
@@hobbycollector1392 I put a 2300 mAh 4cell 45c battery for it and it goes about 45mph
@@arthurb4925 did it take flight at all? That’s gotta be uncontrollable! I wonder how long the esc will last on 4s??? Did it get hot on you?
@@hobbycollector1392 it didn’t take flight but wanted to fly on the waves, The esc was pretty cool same as the motor and no nothing got hot everything was cool
I have the same boat , I would love to do that same for the battery
Send me an email at huntjerryc@gmail.com and I'll send you the STL file to print.
How do I go about getting your .stl file? Thank you. Love the video
hi nice video. May I ask for the 3d file of that battery holder? thanks
Could i have the STL file for the battery holder
Hello, you fixed the drive shaft from destroying right? How did you do that? Nice Video👍
Marine Grease after 2 sessions of runs.. No problems of yet
What is the run time and top speed with stock battery? Does it perform well?
Still the best RC boat for the money. My heart starts racing every time I drive it. It's too much fun for $150!
Sweet!!!
You ever figure out the limp mode? My 2200 50C batteries are putting it into limp as well. Weird since they are higher C.
Hello! Were did buy the white boat? Thanks!
Hi original esc & motor can use 4s battery?
I have heard that but have not tried it personally.
hi this is a great boat thanks for your video ! how many amp has the ecs ?
I have a question a user of CZcams said that he bought one and that it broke the cable drive shaft and he bought another one and it broke too the same part and that it can't find the parts
That sucks! I personally haven’t had any problems with my boats yet. I wonder if he didn’t have any grease on the shafts? Or I guess if you got stuck in weeds a lot that would be hard on them. I have 6 packs through my Arrow and maybe 10 through my Rapid with zero problems so far. I hope that’s not going to be a problem but we will have to wait and see.
I found all of the parts at WL Toys.
@@ND3600 yes i even found parts of the udi005 in aliexpress and some other sites but the problem here is that If I buy the udi005 I see that the cable drive shaft is very easily to brake because is made of Braided wire not a steel bar totally it's like braided wire and the thing is that I could buy the parts but I can be buying that part over and over and how hard could be to change it
@@fherny77 finally someone answers your question 😂
Is that an outrunner style brushless motor?
There is a Facebook group called “UDI RC”
What model is the $45 boat??
The red one is the UDI009 Rapid. I ordered mine off of eBay. They also come ready to run with a battery. The stock battery is a Li-ion that is ok. It’s a great little boat if you’re wondering if you want to try rc boats. Hope you enjoy!
Hi im a huge fun of yours can you send me and one of those 3d printed battery storage.
Great video, are you still running this boat? How is it holding up, thanks
i have one and u get 10 mins tops with stock battery...im trying to find out what battery upgrade i can use
Interesting, I get a good 15 minutes out of a full charge on the 2600 mAh 3S.
I also don’t drive on lakes flat out the whole time, I’m driving up and down the strong current in creeks but even the 1-2 sec releases of throttle really seem to extend battery life. I also do a lot of medium throttle so the boat just hold position in powerful currents which is very entertaining.
Hi original esc , motor can use on 4s battery?
I’m only running 3s but this other guy in the comments is running 4s and says he’s not having any problems.
The reason why you going into limp mode with the big battery is because it's a 50c discharge rating it's too high for that boat
Where you buy it?
I got mine off of eBay. Found it for the cheapest price there.
@@hobbycollector1392 can you send the link?
@@nzx2147 I just looked and the 150 dollar ones are sold out and now people are asking $300. I’ll keep an eye out and if I find them at the regular price I’ll let you know.
@@hobbycollector1392 ok,thank you 😁
@@nzx2147 www.ebay.com/itm/224458650633 they are on eBay again. A little bit more at $160 but better than the price gouging 200+.
So a rebranded atomik for anyone curious. Rollover boats suck honestly. Self righting boats have tons of issues. Also they don’t represent any real skill in rc. They are the “bashers” of the water world
I have this boat and really like it except spare parts are not easy to come by. I had to order a new prop shaft and only found it available at rcmodelsonline.com and they ship from China so it will take about 4 weeks. I have 4 batteries for my boat and one of them always goes into slow mode about 30 seconds into the run. I have no idea why.
Send pleaseeeee :D
Lol it went from 189 to 289
