Very awesome. That's the only reason I didn't buy this boat cause it didn't have that feature. Wish they would make a V2 that would.

I am aware they did make some changes from when they released it to now correcting a few previous issues, especially with the trim tabs. V2 currently. Self righting is a drawback with this boat, unfortunately and how beautiful it looks in the scale does make it a drawback. Reasonings I did something like this here. And maybe this might get enough attention for them to look into an option for a V3. It’s not the first time proboat has made some changes based on my findings and fix’s

What do you think mjet supersprint vs proboat jetstream?

It seems add ing the self righting now causes it to flip

The flipping I did on purpose, hitting full reverse at speed to get the boat to flip. Using the bucket reverse. Normal operation the boat is very stable and trying something new as idea as an extra reassurance for rivers and sketchy places. It’s a concept idea.

@@mad_lizard Like the concept but slightly concerned weight up top and the degree it seems to roll in corners as in white water it would spend 1/2 it's time upside down and why I stopped when it came too close too often

@@TheS4jordan in Whitewater rapids always concerned about rolling it and then having to get it. I’ve been experimenting with something like this. This is not hundred percent confirmed and trying a different concept. Experimenting with something new. The weight was a concern when I was designing this and made it as light as possible and weighing out only 3.5 ounces. The red top is only really a cap. The cap is only 2 mm thick trying to make it as light as possible, Under the cap is a 2 inch thick foam block. The foam is what I’m trying to cover up using the cap and secure. With the idea of flotation on top for Center of balance change allowing for it to roll back over. I will post another video with detail assembly and how it’s put together with more testing in white water.

@@mad_lizard get where you're coming from as had a similar idea with a balloon which I first tried inside the cockpit and whilst enough to lift the boat it wasn't enough to roll it back unless on the roof and hence the RNLI idea as it kept the weight low

Do you make this for sale ? Or where can i find this ?
