Nothing cooler that a big sport hydro returning to the surface like a fresh water manta ray and then finishing a race. People that don't know FE find it startling.
How many Boats do You have?

How many do I have??? WAY TOO many to count... which is why I need to thin the fleet so I can get my head wrapped back around this hobby! Oh, and make room for some new ones!

I have seen an AeroMarine Avenger completely under water, pop back up and continue the run.Originally posted by T.S.Davis View PostNothing cooler that a big sport hydro returning to the surface like a fresh water manta ray and then finishing a race. People that don't know FE find it startling.

My 1/12 Pay n Pak can be submarined at will from a stand still, have to get it on plane with a few blips of the throttle or it will go under. Also does it when it comes off plane bringing it in, Looks like a pair of nostrils when the turbine inlets surface and the water shoots out! Kinda freaky in the spring when the water is really clear.
Does AM penetrate water? Could try tossing an old radio in it and see if I can drive it under water!
How do the scale sub guys keep control?If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

At the nationals a couple of years ago here in Oz, we all saw a big twin nitro rigger dive at full noise & pop back up after about 10 meters & keep going. Both engines still on song.
Although it was basically an open cockpit, the cowling did curve over the engines. It must have sucked an air pocket down with it that let the engines keep breathing. Weirdest thing I ever saw. With a boat, that is.See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

I have 6, PB Formula Fastech, PB Miss Geico, PB Impulse 31, PB Shockwave 26 BL, Aquacraft Minimono and my wife just picked me up the Genesis which I am in the process of starting a twin build. I really want to thin out my collection and concentrate on just 2 or 3 of them. It starts getting a little overwhelming and the cost can be a factor as well. Oh and I also own 7 RC helicopters and 2 RC trucks. Everyone I know thinks I'm crazy but these are all great hobbies and its A LOT CHEAPER than my old hobby which used to be building old muscle cars! Don't have the space for that anymore and to be honest after working on cars all day long in my career the LAST THING I want to do is open another hood when I get home from work!
