RC ADVENTURES - Today we get to unbox one of 2016's most predominant, and anticipated Radio Control hobby boats, the THRASHER from Streamline RC. Yup, you read it right.. 6S Lipo Power! Thats 22v.v of power surging through these boats! The folks at Streamline RC have been pushing the limits of this newly designed ESC and Motor combo, in the epically released THRASHER jet boat. 6S Lipo Power is now available to all of the Kickstarter folks that supported Streamline to help launch this product. Also, Scott (the CEO / Engineer and Manufacturer), has updated all orders going to customers for this awesome upgrade.
Jem is stoked to have a new boat that She can Captain! Uh-oh.. now she's gunna be kickin' my butt at boating, too! Haha :) Unfortunately, it is a bit cloudy out and the reflection on the water made some shots difficult. BUT, the speed and torque of this boat are phenomenal..
A lot of folks ask me about the products I use in my films. I have skimmed some information from StreamlineRC (their old kickstarter program)
"The Thrasher is a high performance RC jet boat that has been design to be the most rugged and reliable RC boat in the world. Thrasher introduces an entirely new level of versatility to its user, by dramatically increasing the options of where and how the RC boating experience can be enjoyed. Thrasher even brings RC boating off of the traditional 2D water plane and into 3 dimensions with its ability to bounce off objects in the water and leap into the air off natural and man made jumps. The high performance, rugged, reliable, and versatile qualities of Thrasher expand the fun factor of RC jet boating for all ages and experience levels.
Designed and Tested for Performance:
Patent Pending high output jet pump - we believe this to be the highest output pump of this scale available anywhere
Uniquely designed deep v hull with Thrasher's exclusive "high lift" bow for exceptional performance in rough and big water
Interchangeable and removable sponsons allow the pilot to fine tune handling performance
Quick change impeller and thrust nozzle design pave the way for performance tuning
Simple battery based performance range - We have simplified the traditional performance upgrade path by providing a powerful bushless motor and electronic speed controller that can be run from 7.4 volts (2s) all the way up to 18.5 volts (5s) without changing anything on the stock Thrasher. (see battery options further down the page)
Rugged - Toughest boats on the water!
