Awsome videos! I commented on the Genesis one. What have you done to these two boats and how many cells are in each boat? Verrrry nice boats and sweet lake location as well. -

I also have both the genesis and the geico, the geico is far the way to go between the two boats for handling, my genesis is pretty much my straight line boat but i have got her turning pretty well now but nothing like the geico stock out of the box and as stated in another post here, she comes with a 2.4 system, ive got about 500.00 in my genesis and still going....both are cool boats!!Leave a comment:

I have the twin and it's bad in the turns I have to really REALLY slow down in the turns or I will roll it, same with the Genesis. The apparition because it's a twin and the batteries in the middle is way it rolls so easy in the turns. Other than that it's an Awesome straightline hull. No comments on the single motor one because I don't have it lol.Originally posted by small=breakable View PostLeave a comment:

I have a MG, Have a Apparition twin had a Genesis and will be getting the Aqua-cat when it comes out. With all the racing done on the aquacat and their is some video floating around of it running a some races as well their is no doubt this cat is going to be bad a$$ and with the $50 off discount from tower hobbies (if you are a member for $9.99) you can get under $300 and free shipping. The Miss Geico is the best handling of the Genesis and the Apparition
No video of my Apparition yet but it's a straightline hull like the genesis

I am interested in the apparition myself. Does anyone on here know why they would be a bad choice? I will reply here if I find out.Originally posted by OffShore_RC View PostLeave a comment:

I never thought of handling issues with the Genesis. I assume the handling issues stem from the length of the Genesis or is there another reason?Originally posted by Fluid View PostLeave a comment:

Yes I have at one point...but struck that off my list as I knew someone who had one and wasn't happy with it...although I don't remember the reason why now.Originally posted by Alexgar View PostLeave a comment:

I have both, a Genesis and a Geico(as you can see in my avatar) and can tell you that they should not be in the same list. The Geico will run circles, at WOT no less, around 75% of the boats on the market. If a racing boat is what your looking for get the Geico or wait for the Aquacraft Cat to be released and give that a try.Leave a comment:

I started off with the Apache 24 myself. Got me started with the addiction. It's handling is poor but all in all a fun little boat. Brushless is the way to go. You won't be disappointed with the Geico.
As for mono's they are easier to handle and set up imho. As you grow into the sport the boats I mentioned are great RTR's and very reliable. Good luck!

Morgan, the Genesis does not handle the race course as well as the Geico or the Motley Crew do. You may want to consider either of the latter two, they can run in the club's LSO class....

Motley Crew looks absolutely stunning...will have to wait for some reviews to see how it handles.Originally posted by tunnelvision View Post
The other reason I want to get a cat, is because I am getting used to handling my Apache which is a cat. I know people have told me learning to drive a deep vee is easier, but why would I want to switch back after getting used to one type of hull.
Maybe down the line I might get a Deep vee, just not right now.Leave a comment:
