An old broken and worn out radio control speed boat is sunk in the lake instead of being put out for the trash man. An onboard camera was put on to record the sinking.It was attached with velcro and tethered with a fishing line in order to recover the camera. A good pull ripped the velcro apart once the boat had sunk. I used my popsicle stick rc tugboat to pull it out to the site where it would be sunk. Please see my other videos for a video of that boat with an onboard camera. Once at the site, the duct tape that covered the holes that were drilled in the hull was pulled off and it began to sink. Only the tug made it back to shore. *** IF YOU’RE INTERESTED IN MODEL TRAINS, CHECK OUT MY HO TRAIN DISPLAY SHELVES ON EBAY.

Enjoy the Hobby of RC’ing




epic.. my mrs said to me, what the hell are you watching right as kermit was in frame.
I was getting all emotional with the sad music and pictures of the boat in it pride lol.
Nice video buddy, it was put together well.
Also what camera did you use for the onboard footage?
@999benhonda i think thats a bit of an over statement still good movie tho
@iamevan771 i see your point but my rc ships are my pride and joy. i put so much work in to them that seeing the glide along a lake or pond makes it all worth it
remind me of the funeral of my old ship, a destroyer named “Flower”class in 1:72 R/C..she was allso put out of service for the newer ship i had, R.I.P. and Salut.
@londonwasps321 Traxxas blast would be good, not real expensive
i am looking for a starter rc boat do you have any ideas for me . plz respond
If you really liked it, then why’d you sink it?
i cried like a baby so sad lol
Nice vidd man Keep Going !
Thank you for sharing. Great video
@55ThugLife55 same
@train2589 Thanks very much!!
great video.
I used to have the same Traxxas boat back in the 1980s and had hours of fun swapping gear ratios on the drive to get the maximum speed, turning hollow aluminm tubes around the motors to keep them cool, swaping the magnetic brushes as they wore out, having an auxilary water pump to cool the engines while it was sitting stil and speeding around the nearby ponds until finally it gave out. I admire your devotion to a once great hero. I thought I was the only fanattic
You should have made a little bouy for it. To mark the sight.
It was not just a boat to rc people they are companions they are a part of you they are never forgotten like family
Nice vid nice story
respect
mighty puddy
i cant believe im crying over a electric boat XD
Really really beautiful!!!
i would have kept the old speedboat body as a companion item. take the tug popsicle boat to rc boat meets, and have the body as a tow behind item while u r there.
now get a rc submarine and go look at its final resting place
jeezus this is the most depressing song i have ever heard! i never thought an rc boat could mean so much to somebody
@spear913 ok no need to buy then
Free Energy is real and its here but the coverup is strong, if u are interested in a REAL free energy machine then
just go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and download the blueprints ,it is probably the ONLY working magnet
motor out there. Join the free energy revolution!!
it is insanely sick truck.it gets 10 times more use than my savage.snapped a shaft tho today and i am pretty sad:(
does it still work after the water?
For poeple who think the summit is slow, there actually not that slow. they go maybe 25 mph.
i like it but the bodies ugly!!!
@jordodj hell ya me too i think .. will work well enough in my backyard monster truck truck and also be good for longer drives at decent speeds. versatile for sure.
I wanted a electric monster truck that could crawl hit speeds and jump and completely waterproof and i just found it! i am getting this
been following Traxxas since 86 and its amazing what they are doing!!!!
how much is that truck?
very cool!
ЗДОРОВО!!!
@VideoGamePlayer12 its water proof and you can change gears/ lock your front and/or back diffs with your remote and prob not
@VirusTornado you can adjust the Suspention for your own preffrence
@VideoGamePlayer12 with all the differences then a Revo its not the same Revo is more for racing this is for bashing and crawling slower then the Revo so you break less parts
@durwank i had the same problen … dont know why either Im still looking for answers
wow u can drive in that deep water that is amazing
Isnt a summit pretty much just an e revo with a slower internal gear ratio, 2 speed transmission, different motor, tires, body and locking diffs? or is there more? Any suggestions on how to raise my e revo up to the hight of a summit?
That thing makes my jeep (real and built) look like a little bitch! AWESOME!
@VirusTornado it needs shock oil replacement
movie
replace the shock oil
That’s what I thought after watching videos. Looks like it needs stiffer springs to keep the suspension extended for better ground clearance.
I LOVE THE SUMMIT, but the only problem is the suspension because after sometime the car’s ride hight goes down and you can see that in the vid, but still AWESOME!
I ran mine in some water yesterday ( didn’t submerge it though ) and after it got wet it seemed to have a problem with going into reverse. It would take me 2-3 trys to get it to back up. The brakes would work fine but when I would try the reverse nothing would happen on the first try. Strange? Has this happened to anyone else?
they are two completely different cars! the summit, is mainly a crawler. I would go savage because its so big and can handle anything
