FIELD NOTES / MARINE

BEFORE YOU BUY.

On the water, reliability matters as much as top speed. Safe launch and recovery access, suitable battery protection, cooling, range and righting ability should all be understood before a first run. The glamour shot is a full-throttle pass; the smart setup begins with shore planning.

01

Choose your water first

Small sheltered ponds and big open lakes create very different demands for hull size and radio range.

02

Plan retrieval

A dead battery in the middle of a lake is not hypothetical. Have a safe non-swimming recovery plan.

03

Dry it after every run

Inspect seals, prop shafts, connections and any cooling lines after operation.
