Xmas Eve and day and I am going to have to do it is not a

I had a same buddy like you have Stemp..he passed away in Feb at the age of 46...you made me remember my days with my best friend! Keep spreading smiles and laughter with the world! cheers

The energy with you and Stemp is contagious. Every new video with him in it is smiles all around.

Enjoyed the vid Kev! Never hurts to give the tuning procedures in the manual a little review! 😬 Only thing wrong with that SW2 is that those turn fins on the outer edges of the transom need to be adjusted downward. The closer they are to 90 degrees vertical, the sharper the boat will turn, especially while up on plane…could also double check that your steering dual rate is maxxed🤘🏻🤘🏻

Also he had the little plastik thing on the rudder... thats why it did not turn well. It is just for protection, so it is meant to be removed before driving the boat.

You and stumpy have a wonder back and forth dialogue!! It’s obvious y’all are good friends and the conversation comes natural!! I love it!!! 🤜🤛

I hate your disrespect to these RC models. Well yeah that boat did sinc. Every tought how bad the batteries are for your river?

This video is the perfect example of what this hobby is all about , glad to see you boys had fun it was great to watch.

If you do another rc boat video, you should bring a fishing net and extension pole. It might be able to retrieve a sunken boat.

Dude watching you and Stemp have fun is the most uplifting thing of my week. I literally live for those days. Just good old fun with your best pals. Love your videos Kev, you’re the best influence!

Kev, so many people look up to you and what you do, keep doing what you are doing no matter what anyone says

What you call "some sort of diffuser" are the trim tabs. They control the attitude of the boat. Set them up, nose/bow goes up and speed does too (conversely, setting them down, makes the nose/bow go down). Too much up will result in the boat getting airborne at high speed and flip spectacularly 😁. Both of the boats were running too much nose down (running 'wet', as a boater would say), hence their inability to attain the advertised speed, and even, in some instances, "submarining" when hitting a wave. Prop shaft angle and depth also has great influence in the boat's attitude. My guess is, they came with a very conservative setup from the factory.

@@KevinTalbotTV the procedure here is, make the prop shaft parallell with the hull’s keel. To do this , place the hull on a table, loosen the bolts that hold the strut (the thing that holds the prop shaft) and force it into a stack of wood bits, as high as it has to be, to match the height if the transmission. Then tighten it. You now have a perfectly aligned thrust axis. Now, just get the trim tabs way up (so that they do not touch the water) and work your way down, until the boat is as fast as possible, whithout getting airborne.

@OliveiraX

Жыл бұрын

@@KevinTalbotTV Also, I forgot to mention: before getting into prop shaft/trim tab angle, one must observe the center of gravity. In a boat such as this, it it between 28%-32% measured from the transom. In this case 36" x 30% = 10.8". Move the batteries fore and aft to achieve a proper CG, like in an helicopter or plane😁. The best way to ascertain a boat is levelled, is to hit some waves. When hitting a wave, the boat will jump, and, if correctly balanced, will land levelled. If it lands tail first -> CG too aft. If it lands bow first -? CG too forward. Simple! It is this tuning that makes running boats so much fun. And then, once you got the balance right, it is time to get into propellers! The fun never ends!

”Running wet” - learnt something new today 👍

Can't go wrong with a boat video. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Great Video Kev. love it when you and Stemp play with boats. I have 2 of those boats and never had a problem steering them. I did have to adjust the trim on the remote

vids are always the most fun. 2 mates sharing a hobby and having a laugh. Puts a smile on my face every time!

When I see boats AND Stempy, I know it's gonna be an awesome video! Love watching you guys have fun and having a laugh 👌

You and Stemp are just too made for each other. Need more videos with him!

wicked video great vibes love it when you two are on the water nothing but laughs

you both together makes my day,, just got out of hospital after a rough couple days,, ty kev and stemps

Honestly I think that looks absolutely EPIC!!

The video was amazing I love rc stuff.

Love it. Thanks for the laughs Kev!!!!

Some of your best content is out on the water with stemp in that wee boat. The mayhem and random hijinks that you 2 create with those boats is pure content. Keep living the fun life.

That was an insane vid Brother Kev!😆The Sonicwake is one of the best RTR's to date imo! Yours needed some major tuning out of the box it looks! I've been running boats for 25 years and that one was ill handling for sure! I have two of them and they perform killer once tuned! The screw that came out was a nylon breakaway screw to save the boat transom of you hit something or snag a stick in the water. The allen key definitely worked for a quick fix! LOL Awesome vid though bro!!!

I’m gonna invent an inflation device for RC boats in case they sink. I’m thinking a balloon hooked to a CO² cartridge 😏 Maybe I could hook it to a pressure sensor to auto inflate if it ever goes more than 6 feet underwater 🤷‍♂️ Wonder if there’s a market for that sort of thing

Miss these boat vids! Thanks Kev!

"stumpy?" ? You are the victim of autocorrect, or your ears are full of ham sandwiches.

Kev I think one of the problems with the steering is those two fins were faced down into the water too much but if you lifted them up a little it would help it steer more. BTW I am a long-time fan I always love your videos!!! I might have a boat for you to test out.

Whenever the dinghy boys are out and about it’s a good day.

My god, I havent laughed like this in a long freakin time! This is your best yet Kevin in my opinion!!! Dont change a thing!!

two full grown men having fun is priceless😂

Unrelated to the video, but wanted to thank you Kev if you read this by chance! The other day I had a grub screw with just blue loctite but I could not get it freed up, remembered your trick about heating it up with a soldering iron and worked like a charm!

Kev, the video was loads of fun. You should try a dual motor cat hull boat, like the TFL 1133 1040mm (Banggood special). Then you could put bigger motors for maximum speed, and mix the rudder with the ESCs on the radio for awesome thrust steering.

Brilliant video Kev. Sorry the first boat got Stempped but like you say if it puts a smile on your face it's the best thing in the world and you both had some big smiles.

Hey, Kev. I really like that you're posting videos of boats now. Just a friendly piece of advice though, you need to put some tape on the hatch to keep the water out of the inside of the boat, in case it flips over. It's usually sold as "hatch tape" at hobby stores, or you can also just buy "hockey sock tape at sporting goods stores.

I love the boat episodes it’s just a laugh from start to finish.

Awesome video! The boat sinking part was so funny 😂😂
