wait was it supposed to go in the water and be like a boat? Or was it just a truck? If it's one of those boat things, that's pretty cool!

Yeah I was hoping that to. I thought that you meant that you tried to take it out and see if it sink's, and it didnt so then you slaped a M-80 on it or something. LOL

But it looked good depsite that it didnt blow up hahaha.

Its an E-bay Amphibious Truck...

Its Not Brilliant as you can see as with an Amphibious RC you cant have the Best of Both Worlds..
Its a Pretty good Design.. the Under Part as You can See in the final Shot is shapped like a Boats hull and it is a Skid Steer meaning that you have to be pretty talented just to drive it as the left button controls the left side, and the Right button controls the Right side, like a Tank..

There are Two Props attached to the Rear Axles which are powered by the same motors that turn the wheels..
It is a pretty cool design.. I mean if HPI Took this sort of approach to Savage.. you would have a pretty cool RC...
So Even though this is a Toy RC, the Design of it is Pretty cool...
I just whish I could get it more Power as the 10Volt 1100mah Lead Acid Battery is the only pack that fits it..
I would love to be able to to get a 10Volt 4200mah into it but the Electrics probably wouldnt take it..

So for the amount of money I paid for it, I am Pretty impressed with it as far as a fun toy goes..


Just wish there was a Hobby Spec Version....

The electronics could take that battery. That would only increase the run-time though. Increase the voltage and you might get more performance... or it could poop out.
