Who makes this Eco?
I'm trying to figure out who makes the Eco featured in the video below. I have a few suspects, but I thought maybe someone would know or has one.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hi Meniscus. The eco hull is made by Hydro & Marine. RegardsOriginally posted by Meniscus View PostI'm trying to figure out who makes the Eco featured in the video below. I have a few suspects, but I thought maybe someone would know or has one.

That one has the flood chamber on the opposite side. I'm not 100% sure that's it.Originally posted by rhinopole View Post
Do you mean the H&M Speedy or the Zip? Both look like the hatch is significantly shorter than the one in the video.Originally posted by Norman2 View Post
Regarding the hatch, the Hopf looks closer.
Now I'm confused! LOL

Any other thoughts on who makes this hull? Is it modified from one of these other manufacturers? Perhaps it is indeed the Hopf hull, but a previous version or something along those lines.

It's definitely a Hopf Super Sonic, the photo of it on the web site with the flood chamber on the opposite side is back to front.( Notice the big number seven)
Naviga has a speed class F1e-1kg for boats of similar size but limited to 1 kilogram weight that are running about 750 watts power, here's an example. The hull is a Kukorelli Lady B.

Eco setup
Toysport Joker (race)
Novak GTB 13.5 system
Maxamps 6,000 2s2p
Airtronics M11 2.4 radio and servo
Graupner 31mm prop
Good for 33mph with no hull mods
You guys have got me all jacked up!
Looks like NAMBA keeping eco was good let's see if we can slide a BL/Lipo
suppliment into NAMBA's Eco rules NOT to become a heated debate , just a suggestion..
One class that could cross over worldwide wouldn't hurt
I already proved the euro boys wrong when they said I couldn't bust 28mph with an eco on 7-zellen and a 19-turn motor
Me hit 31 LoL..
On 6-zellen
Ecos rock don't knock it 'til you try it..
Turn like the movie TRON INSANE accelleration Self righting, what more do you want!!!Comment
That's the plan! 
All hail the ecos in the US
