We’re talking new hull, inner bracing, dual easy to remove battery mounts, new running hardware, new electronics and two killer looks. In this video Greg will run through the new features and then hit’s the pond for some high-speed water churning action!

    I literally just bought the blackjack 24 at my local hobby shop yesterday and they said it was being discontinued
    Less than 24 hours later, you put this out and my local hobby shop didn’t even know this was coming out 🤯
    You are the man for being on top of things thank you. 🙏
    But I do have the new one pre-ordered now 😊
    Love your channel 👍👍

      I’ve had it for a few weeks to test. But… I’m not allowed to let anyone know about it until the release date. 😄

    I'm hesitant on this because of no self righting, but i might buy this. I was using my first boat the recoil 2 this past weekend. Jet stream boat down the line too

    I am digging the mounted plug setup! I hope more manufacturers start doing that or providing kits. Traxxas plugs especially are difficult to unplug.

    • @rcdriver
      @rcdriver  Před 27 dny +1

      I completely agree! Mounted plugs would be welcomed on everything going forward!

    Are those decals the black long stripes along the top of the hull on the front is that a two piece decal was wondering?

  • @joshengland5251
    @joshengland5251 Před 27 dny

    Wonder hows come they didnt include turn fins,like the bigger version?? Or didnt jump on same playing field as the self righting system...whose gunna be the first for the catamaran in the self righting??? Traxxas?? Arrma?? Proboat?..and atleast 6S

  • @dylanwhite6539
    @dylanwhite6539 Před 20 dny

    It’s a nice improvement. The old version being 3s with a 30a esc was stupid.

    • @marknickells6097

      Proboat did a lot of "Safe things with the original Black Jack 24. They put all their money in to the engine. Yet cheapened up TX/RX , and went 'Stupid on the ESC. You can't safely run 3 S on a 30 AMP controller - I actually toasted mine, the first day, the boat hit the lake. (Last year)
      THE boat also came with the Stock Nylon Black Jack 29 prop, which was too much for the Stock ESC.
      Within a year, I updated to a V2 system, and upped the speed controller a 120 A, and then to a balanced TFL .438 prop, and the boat dialed in. I am also running the ,Spekrum system . AND .. propped . up . On a CNC .440 speed prop, I got 35 Mph. (28-30), with the TFL.
      THe new Black Jack 24, is a significant improvement, and is able to run 4S.
      This is where, it sorta doesn't make sense.
      The original 24, was fast, because it was a light hull. 2.3 pounds. Add a single 5200 3 S battery, and your in the water. Now, you have to pony up for two batteries, with lower voltage, to basically accomplish the same thing?
      You can UPGRADE the STOCK 24 motor, and get the same results as you would get, with the new Boat. (Single battery)
      Personally, in my opinion; MY boat gets real unstable at speeds over 30 MPH . I would rather run my dedicated 6 S boat, (Traxas) M41 , and take that up to 50 MPH . Other than, push the the outer limits of the smaller hull.
      Maybe, just an opinion?
      We love our speed. I just don't like "THE PADDLE of shame," when I push my boat too hard, and up flipping it.

    Scary with no self righting feature. My area has choppy water so this would not work.

    • @bentley979

      True ,but boats like this are made for beginners, and people that don’t want to spend to much on a boat.
