First off the boat looks great...but looks are very deceiving. The major problem with this boat is the quality of the hull. Traxxas should have made the hull out of fiberglass. When I ran this boat it handle ok! I have a Genesis and a Zelos 36 an both boats are much more superior to this boat that I got for my son. I have run this boat on 3S an 6S batteries an the 6S is WAY to much for it. The boat is way to light to handle the power of 6S batteries. After a few runs we found that the hull was getting damaged. From small debris in the water I guess :/ I will be selling this boat and getting him something that is much better quality. There is a lot of boat out there around the same price but are of much higher quality. Traxxas needs to go back to the drawing board on this one.

First off this thing is plain FAST!! Right out of the box on 6s it's just plain fun. Water cooling feature works great in keeping the motor cool under all that power. The M41 hull is not fiberglass but plastic, so I was skeptical at first. I have flipped it several times though (drivers fault) and have taken no damage or warping of the hull. It's a true rocket on the water and is very stable, much more so than my vhull boats. Maintenance is super simple and keep the flexshaft lubricated!! I lube it after every run, and have ran it tons of times with no issues. I've also only ran 6s lipos and have not had anything tear up yet, so I'm hopeful it will keep staying as solid as it has! All in all a great RTR boat that makes my pond a lot more fun!!!

First impression of the boat was great. However some parts were not up to the quality of the premium price. On the other hand, warranty does not work for international customers.
