New ProBoat Offering - WidowMaker 22 Deep-V BL RTR

[Darin Jordan]

I was just made aware of this new boat from ProBoat this morning:

http://www.proboatmodels.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=PRB3900

Here are the specs:

WidowMaker 22 Deep-V BL RTR


Specs
Length: 22 inch (559mm)
Beam: 6.25 inch (158.75)
Motor Size: Water Cooled Brushless 2900Kv
Radio: Pro Boat Pistol-Grip AM (preinstalled)
Speed Control: 7.2-7.4V LiPo compatible with reverse 30A
Hull Type: Fiberglass Composite V-Hull
Battery: 1-7.2 Ni-MH with Deans connector or 1-2S 25C Li-Po (sold separately)
Kit/RTR: RTR

Looks like it might be a stepped hull, which would limit it's racing applications some. The motor package, however, will certainly find other applications, perhaps even something using 3S instead of 2S...
