MEGATECH CARIBBEAN CRUISER 2 RC Boat
This fully assembled and race-ready Megatech Caribbean Cruiser 2 RC boat is a 30-inch long, twin-motor, electric ocean racer loaded with full-race features from stem to stern. The design features of the Caribbean Cruiser 2 RC Boat were put there for one reason - to make it go faster! Megatech utilized a modified V-hull design, featuring multiple plaining strakes to breaking up water surface tension for less drag. Surface tension is the biggest drag-causing factor on any race boat! The Megatech Caribbean Cruiser's RC Boat plaining strakes are placed at several points on the hull's bottom to defeat this speed-robbing action. Yes, this boat literally flies over the water's surface! Driving the radio control Megatech Caribbean Cruiser 2's hull are twin 550 motors bolted up to a 1:1.7 drive-ratio transmission, they drives a single heavy-duty main shaft and large surface-drive prop (no toy-like underwater drive here). Surface-drive setups are the pinnacle of racing technology!. They are also the mechanism responsible for creating those huge rooster tails so closely associated with competition boat racing and are guaranteed to excite any spectators. Mounted off the transom is a "strutter-design" rudder control, a feature only found on racing boats. Completing this competition package is the copper plumbed (not aluminum), "Aqua-Ram?" forced-water cooling system. This system features water-jacketing around the commutator ends of the twin motors keeping things cool and running at optimum output efficiency. You can see cooling streaming out of the model's portside freeboard - very nice. The Megatech Caribbean Cruiser 2 Rc Boat also comes with installed high performance competition speed control and pistol-grip radio. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION Question: I would like to buy the Caribbean Cruiser, yet the hardest part is deciding what battery packs and battery chargers to buy. Answer: Batteries are the one of the thing that makes a fast boat incredible. Here is a quick example: 7.2 volt packs range in voltage under load between 5.8 and 7.2 volts. This doesn't sound big until you use percentages - the difference is 1.4 volts or 20% per battery. At this rate, if your boat goes 20mph with a lesser battery, it will go 28mph or higher with the GOOD packs. Basically, it would be like adding 3 cells extra to the 2 - 7.2 volt packs but without the extra weight of those cells. Megatech 2400mah batteries have great run time and good voltage (6.3 to 6.5). Enjoy your Caribbean Cruiser!
