Magic cat arrived today undamaged, hour to charge up, took it down to a local pond and it put a smile on my dial aswell as my four year olds, goes well range is not that bad for the size of it, if anything just check that it has grease in the flex shaft and prop is on tight, great product want a couple more now cheers hk.

Reçu sans dommages, assez bonne qualité générale, le bateau navigue bien et réponds bien. Meilleure finition globale que le Sea-Rider. Montage passable tout comme le Sea-Rider, les monteurs sont bien bacleurs, c'est du vite-monté, vite fini. Le prix est en rapport avec la qualité, c'est logique, tout comme le Sea-Rider.

It's pretty decent stock, but you need to make the trim tab mod to make it plane level, and definitely put a larger Li-po in it. I put a rhino 2S 610 and get about 15-20 min run-time. make sure to bring it in ASAP once speed slowed down as the ESC doesn't have LVC.

Look my video http://youtu.be/HFZHj-bOKiY
The Mini Cat is very fast. Battery run for 10/15 minutes. Very good motor and Hull.

I bought the boat last week and i recived yesterday. After only 3 work days.
The boat is little and is very very fast for the dimension.
Good balance and the elctronic is good for the price, but don't cover long ditance.
The motor is fast and good.

Hello,I use this boat for 3 months without any problems. I replaced the original battery with a lipo 2 s rhino 360 and the boat and more powerful and fast. I board a boat for cheap and very cool.

my friend had just pass me this boat, it was abit disapointed when he passed me the boat, i put the boat in water and run for 10 meters and the boat just stopped there. the shaft that attach to the propeller came off and there are water inside the boat. the rudder also broke when doing a turn. please check the shaft before u put into water, make sure you screw tight the shaft and maybe you want to enforce the rudder by putting carbon rod and gule it. it also got a burning smell when i open the boat cover, but after repair the shaft, the motor still can run, i will test again on this sat.

3 stars because the range of the radio is very short (less then 15 feets)
I remove all the electronics and put it in the garbage including the radio.
I put a new stetup and made somes modifications.
Now it's a 5 stars !
(Go to the "files" tab and download the file "My Magic Cat modification")
It's too bad that the range of the radio or receiver is so short :-(
I hope Hobbyking tell it to the company.

Good for size, features and price.
Do not expect more than he offered for this price.
If you want a better boat, pay more expensive.

Well, what surprised me run, I have tried in a pool and truth that goes pretty fast for the engine so small it is. By contrast, I had to adjust the servo arm that was not 90 degrees and the steering wheel was not properly adjusted, making the journey trim the station in the center and then manually adjusting the rudder through the wire. But worst yet and that worries me is that water entering, which runs quite a danger that the electronics and es
