Waiting to learn about shaft maintenence. I've been waiting for this release since Mickiebeez and sick RC came out with one. Lucky for me I made my own jet boat so I don't have to buy this one.

I've seen it run and it was pretty dang fast too. When I saw it there was no cockpit design yet and what Raphael chose looks much better than what he explained to me, the way I pictured it. Looks top notch. I'm impressed how this turned out! Good job Raphael

Very cool boat. Can't wait to see it run. Facebook video with Rafael said it can run 4S. Specs say 3S? Can run in 2" of water. You can add a trim servo if you run a 3 channel radio. All pump parts are replaceable. Nice work Rafael!

Just read the manual. It looks like a major disassembly of the jet drive to grease the shaft. Otherwise, I love the design.

Looks perfect for a Saturday on the lake when its too rough to run fast boats. Ill be ordering one this spring for sure

Something VERY easily dealt with with just a speck of imagination....

Back when I converted a FASTech to a jet, I simply drilled a small hole through the housing into the stuffing tube, and threaded in a water cooling nipple. Just remove the cap and inject some lubricating oil. Done... Never had to remove the shaft again.

Great idea.

Sweet! Nice alternative to buying an over priced NQD and putting good parts inside! Fun river/creek boat, plus makes a fantastic rescue boat! I'll be purchasing one, for sure.

[srislash]

Sure looks like it tracks straighter than the ole NQD, which is welcome

A very cool addition to Pro Boats line-up......and AQ still lags way behind in any new options.
