Pro Boat Recoil 2 18" Brushless Heatwave RTR PRB08053T2

Looks great. Durable build. Tons of fun. Would buy this model again right away if I broke it.

Design appears much more mature compared to the version 1. Drives very nice, suggest turning down the throttle switch to 50% or 75%, battery goes fast doing top speed runs.

It was super fun for about 10 minutes and then with the wiring placement something melted and it will never work again.

This boat is awesome right out the box 34 mph! Perfect size I set up a box for it throw it in the Jeep and head to the lake with some prep and a sharpened stainless steel prop I have hit 41 as my pb been running this boat all summer with stock electronics (I did put my own radio system right away) no problems whatsoever! I upgraded my cooling lines and changed my steering servo to a Metal gear digital only for preference and personal effects the stock steering servo is surprisingly a good servo with metal gears and plenty of power Proboat really stepped up their game I have a couple of older pro boat releases that I definitely was not as happy with as this one!

I’ve always wanted an rc boat but couldn’t find the right one for the price and value. Proboat killed it with this thing, it rips and is very easy to control. Remote is solid and has all the functionality you would want, and the roll over feature is super handy. Batteries lasted about 15 minutes so definitely buy a spare.

Super fun and faster than I expected.

Very reasonable price for a fast, fun little boat.

2 Dislikes: battery runtime 8 minutes and hull is 3 pieces. Top bottom and access hatch. Basically bottom is screwed and glued to top cap don’t know how long it will last without leaking. Otherwise boat is nice really no problems and runs well out the box.
