So what kind of oil do you run in them and how long does the tank usually last? Like, could you fill it and get an entire days worth of running out of it, or is it something that needs to be filled after every run? I'm guessing it's just gravity fed. Who makes them?

I was wondering if I could get some insight into what the brass nipples are for on most lower units available. Obviously they are for some type of lubricating purposes, but I always thought you just grease the flexshaft and that was sufficient enough (at least for the day of running). I can't...

Splashed must be boat slang for "knockoff", learned something new. If it makes you feel any better I literally just ordered a Taboo earlier today. So hopefully we can still be friends......

Eventually it would be nice to get into competing, but I think it will be a while before I'm competitive enough to even notice that the hull is a issue. It's probably a good hull to start with actually seeing as It'll probably be upside down more than right side up. Thank you for the honest...

Yeah, I promise I'm not trying to stir the pot, I genuinely don't know whats out there or who made what or what came before something else. So hopefully nobody takes it that way. I come from the RC car world, just trying to dip my toe in the pond finally. I did just check to see if it was...

So this actually is a Hitech boat, I guess if the guy sold everything off it makes sense why I can't find anything on the internet called Hitech marine anymore. Good info though. Who came first, Lynx or Hitech, who copied who? I don't know much about RC boat history obviously. Do you remember...

Thank you for the reply, it doesn't appear that this hull has ever been in a wreck because I'm pretty sure it's never even seen water yet, lol. I actually really like the lynx so I was kinda happy to hear that this was similar. Whats the best way to check if it's warped? Just set it on the a...

I know someone is going to state the obvious and say "its a hitech marine race boat" except I can't find a single thing on the googles for any rc boats with the name hitech. It's just a vinyl sticker anyways so I suppose the previous owner could have just stuck it on there. I bought it roughly...
