It is easy enough to find an rc hydroplane video on YouTube now days, however, what you don’t see is someone doing it with a 5th scaler. Thankfully our own Craig “The Uber Ramp Guy” Nelson decided it was high time that someone cranked up the power in a Losi 5IVE-T and went for it. Take a good look at the video above to see Craig hydroplane his Losi 5IVE-T, then you can look at the video below for proof on just how deep the water really was.
By the way, to get his 5th scale to hydroplane he switched it over to electric power with a Kershaw Designs conversion kit and used a Castle Creations Mamba XL2 brushless system for the insane power needed to keep such a heavy vehicle on top of the water.
