Pro Boat Super Sonicwake 48" 8S Self-Righting Brushless Deep-V

I think I want to get an R/C boat. If you're in the same…boat as I am, this new release from Pro Boat and Horizon Hobby might grab your attention. The Pro Boat Super Sonicwake 48" 8S Self-Righting Brushless Deep-V RTR is a large craft that's packed with power and ready to carve through the water.

With a length of 48", this sleek watercraft features a Spektrum 4685 950kv 4-pole Brushless Marine Motor that's paired with a Spektrum Firma 160A Smart Brushless Marine ESC, which can handle up to 8S LiPo battery power.

The Super Sonicwake's sleek hull includes an easy-to-release canopy that keeps water out but also allows for easy access to the internals. This boat also includes a self-righting feature, giving you peace of mind if you should find yourself upside down in the middle of a lake.

Rounding out the electronics of this watercraft is a Spektrum radio system, including a DX3 Smart DSMR 3-channel Transmitter and a SR315 DSMR 3-channel Receiver.
