Big Cat! NEW Product for Mini Cat Racing!

[egneg]

You guys are getting way ahead of me! Still a lot to be learned, etc. about this new boat. Our business model is ARTR and we want to stay that way. Steven is your guy for buying motors, ESC's, bare hulls, hardware, etc. I don't want to be in direct competition with Steven. We have a good working relationship and besides, this is his forum! I don't sell hardware except as OEM parts for our boats. I buy everything that I don't sell myself from OSE!

While I appreciate everyone wanting everything offered in different configurations, we are too small a company to carry all of those variables. We have a pretty good reputation for our products now and don't want to jeopardize that. hope you understand!

I did not ask if you were going to sell the motor mount but whether it was going to be offered as a separate item.

Steven could probably get it. Looks to be made by the same people as this:

I think he was talking about the neat looking rear clamping mount. Not the water cooled forward mount. At least thats my perception.

its a unit though, so it would prob come as one

I have to agree fellas, with a 9" beam it's not a BIG boat it's a long one.
It should be a nice play boat if the price is right!!

No, I will not be carrying the motor mount unless I carry the boat. The mount is really nice. I suspect Steven might pick up on it. Ask him.

Holy bajeeezzzz, It is to be a ARTR... not a world class raceboat...
I think it looks awesome and would love to buy two of them with single drives and one with twins.
Now when will they be ready?

[Tuslow1]

Come on sailr, your boat just stole a mystic (small) sale from MHZ.
I need some more info!!

[sailr]

Be patient guys! I'm waiting for replies from the factory regarding the motor/esc and flexshaft setup. Also still don't have firm pricing. They are still in the final stages of product development so bear with us!

Looks like a fast hull, add 1521/1y with CC 240HV on 6 - 8s and it would be A FAST ELECTRIC !!!

[sailr]

No offense, but there are two different types of boaters here on OSE. Those who want a nice fun sport boat with good speed at an attractive price and those who want blazing fast competition speed. Unfortunately, it seems those who want the blazing fast speed want it at the same price! Reality has to enter the picture at some point guys.

[RCKong]

Then why don't you offer 2 different setups and 2 different prices? I bet you would sell more upgraded boats than stock. Well if you widen the hull and put in real hardware, I for one would be interested. You can see what I will do with it. 70+ go fast or go home.

[Tuslow1]

sailr if you made it out of super lightweight bulletproof goodies, threw in the best 2.4 gig radio, self charging lipos, self size and sharpning props and it ran about 200 mph just as stable as can be all for the low low price of $50. guys would still complain about something!!!

on second thought, I'm quite serious!

Looks great

It looks great Sailr. i agree, many of us do not want a boat that dumps huge amount of amps to get a fast blaze of speed. Some of us like a nice fast sport speed with a longer run time and reliable running for the family.

Some like both also.

I guess it is a good thing I am home now.

This reminds me more of the EKOS setup, but single drive for more reliability/less scale. Looks to be a more freindly setup than the EKOS.

So, is the length stated for just the hull or is it with the outdrive?
