Hobbyking boats

[MARKBRENNAN]

Are hobbyking boats any good thinking about buying one.

[lenny]

Not bad,
Which ones are you looking at to buy ?

[Cinnabun]

I was going to purchase an aquaholic or a relentless, but I really can't find any info on them.

Now im looking for a nice used revolt or impulse to buy instead.

Outerlimits

Hobby King will not talk to you, or refund you for returns. As far as I am concerned buyer beware. There stuff is good as long as it last most of the time........one run

Decent hulls just like other basic fiberglass hulls. They have decent hardware. Motors and esc's in the RTR's are junk.

I was also looking at the outerlimits, but with the junk motor, is it really worth it?

I'm also interested in the apparition. I may end up picking one up.

What do you think of the pro boat Miss geico for a new boat.

I'd get the smash shark. It looks to have better hardware than the outerlimits. Particularly dual turn fins. Also its a better replication of a Skater hull than the Outerlimits boat is of an Outerlimits hull.
The canopy on the Outerlimits model is awful compared to the real boat.

Miss Geico is a great lap racer, handles very well.

i really want to try out a cat, I will probably buy a cat first.

im really wondering how the relentless is? if I sink 120 into it and decide I dont like cats, I wont care as much as sinking 300+ into a geico or motley.

I dont race. I simply cruise around a local pond. Right now, my fastest boat is a villain EX that I got a week ago and I love it. I spent 20 bucks on the "floater" and got a used evx2 for 40 bucks, and had to buy some small things like props and some seals. I am in love with the villain, however I could use a slightly faster boat. Before that, I got a rio ep about 2 weeks ago, and until I got the villain, the rio was the coolest thing since sliced bread to me. I definitely dont need a 60+ mph boat.

My buddy just got a outerlimits and said it is a very nice mono,
And you can get good motors for sport running pretty cheap.
Also seaking esc at good prices to some times.

V hulls are grate all around boats,
They can handle chop or glass waters.
Cats can handle a little chop and glass.
Where and what kind of waters will you be running in most of the time ?
