Heyyy Venom will sell heaps of these boats for all the guys who dont know what they are doing and want to get everything at once.
I still feel sorry for anyone who buys it, because any replacement parts will be "out of stock" or even "coming soon" as soon as you break it hahahahaha
id be interested to see how well it turns because the gas one rolls a lot

Which motor and ESC upgrade would you guys consider for this cat on 8S or even 10S?

[iamandrew]

well the hull is pretty light for a boat that size because its made out of epoxied tissue paper and crap wood rails

I've got a few of those decals.
I don't get why anyone would buy any Venom boat, or boat products.

Because we like to go fast in a straight line & never turn, RUMMY. JIM

FYI: Atomik A.R.C 58" RTR Electric Boat

"This 58” RTR Electric boat is the first large-scale factory electric that out performs it’s gas counterparts. Not to mention, no smelly gas or tedious engine tuning.

The Atomik design team pulled out all the stops with a whopping 2000 watts of brushless electric power out of the stock 1100Kv outrunner mounted in a water-cooled CNC aluminum motor mount. All that power is controlled with a robust 120A water-cooled ESC for a 40+ mph out of the box top speed.

The hand-laid fiberglass hull features full color Atomik racing color scheme protected by a durable gel coat, pre-installed laser cut radio box and battery tray system, which will accompany a single 6S (22.2V) LiPO battery, but is also expandable for up to a 12S configuration. The A.R.C also comes standard with CNC Aluminum running hardware and the fully adjustable Flexdrive system for precise trim tuning."

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. NO WAY this is VENOM. My converted Venom gasser is tough as a mule. Turns almost as well too. JIM

funny how they talk of 2000watts on 6s
that's 90amps and on 5000mah that they recommend..??

Guys, I stumbled upon this site: www.sdshobby.net there are some large scale monos and cats, don't think they are the same, but the package is questionable. Check them out. Since I am a newbie, I don't want to give any uneducated opinion.

Lmao! Does seem pretty light for a hull that size. Gotta be thin.

I was thinkin leopard 5692 around 1000kv on 8s with a 240a speedy.

For those who might wanna see...........

I was thinkin leopard 5692 around 1000kv on 8s with a 240a speedy.

The T600 1400kv on 6s with the right prop would get it going 50s I think,
Or better off with a 5692 730kv 8s or 10s with lots of power and big prop high speeds or smaller prop and lots of run time.

On 8s that motor will see 41k!
I think they have a new T700 motor from HK that cold be the one in this boat??
I still want to find the motor Atomik is using in this cat but the original version that we can get from HK for 50 or 60 bucks

[lenny]

T600 1400kv on 6s.

[Brushless55]

T600 1400kv on 6s.

lot of rpms for a small motor cold smoke it...
I think it's better off with the stocker on 6s
heck maybe 8s on the stocker could work just fine..
