Just order the silver one. Anyone try running Nimh battery on them? That's all I have at the moment. A pair of 5000mah and a pair of 4200mah

just got the Revolt last nite. took off all hardware and silicone all bolts. one complaint.. the battery tray is as thin as a disposable paint roller tray.

They will work, But you will find lipo's are the best thing you could do for the boat.
And 5.5 bullets all the way.

I run a pair of 2s (1p) 6000mha 35c with the GrimRacer 45x68. FUN Fast Boat. I just need to figure out a replacement for the rubbish battery tray....

[lenny]

Can you post some pictures of the inside of the hull and setup ?
Why not just mount velcro straps to the hull ?
It would lower the CG to and help keep it up right in a flip to.

ran it today with my pair of Duratrax 5000mAh nihm batteries. boat runs excellent with out any adjustment made yet. nite and day compare to the SV27 just the battery life was short. can wait for my lipos to get here.

Crazy ain't it?? Mike designs a really nice boat, puts a sick a$$ hardware package on the transom and then the Hobbico bean counters come and ruin all his hardwork by putting a flemsy POS battery tray in it.

Rather than trying to re-engineer the interior of a boat I choose to get a PB IM-31 instead, comes with a nice strong 1/4" wood interior.

I'm at AQ's website -> Revolt -> gallery - and took a look at this pic... http://www.aquacraftmodels.com/boats...xxbi01g-lg.jpg and came up with an idea. Go here... http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...+Wrap&sortby=3 and scroll down aways. *Steve's got both glass and CF batt trays. If your running a single 4S, fabricate a couple / three v-blocks out of balsa, epoxy them to the tray and mount the whole mess in the middle of the hull.

If your running a pair 2S batts, get a pair of trays and mount one to each side of the interior. I would arrange / mount them so they're as close to the keel as possible without the batts rubbing against each other. Hope that all makes sense, it's getting late.

* oops.. be sure to remove the stock battery tray first
