R/C SAN update (pic)

[SprintCar39]

Moe: Things are going great at Ron's Marine. It is nice to have Chris, Floyd and the rest of the guys part of our team now. FYI we are working with Shaun on getting the BYT again this year. Hey...thanks for sending some pro shop customers up our way today...Thanks for all your support.

Moe, I am in the process of doing exactly what you did to yours. Good thing I saw this first because I was trying to get a servo to control the motor. Yeah, it's the old school way.

Would it be possible to get that list of parts?

[imported_pjdave]

Anyone know where I can get one in B.C Canada? Ive tried toys are us and wal mart and they just look at me stupidly.

I think the local dealers have them

And yes they do make a direct drive replica version. I was at my dealer a month or so ago, and he had half a dozen of the direct drive versions, and just as many SANs.

A quick note to those that use them in their pools, mine lasted about two months before the chlorine killed it just like every other rc boat I have run in the pool.

Now it is time for a full tilt r/c conversion.

Also for those that are looking how it comes apart: there are three screws, one under the battery cover, one under the bow lifting ring, and the third under the glob of black silicone in the bow walk thru in the floor. After that the top just pops right off at the rub rail.

ag4ever, is that for the 206, 210, or both versions???

[ag4ever]

210, I have not looked closly at the 206 version, but I asume they use the same bottom portion, and therefore have the same screw spacing.

[AbunDiga909]

We will be getting one of the 206 versions in the green color combo and I would love to do something like Moe did. I saw them at Toys R Us the other day... pretty cool.

I would expect something to be where the engine is on the real boats, but your probably right abou the bottom portion.

Thanks for the reply, may have to get one next time im down in vancouver, its crazy that there is no cc dealer here in kelowna, just mastercraft and malibu.

[bradb]

monkey,
I havent seen them down on the island or in van (at the walmarts or toys R Us that is...) My girlie picked me up one when she was down in arizona (ya, she spoils me!). The number for enzos inboards (nautique dealer) in van is 270 6535 and they always treat me well and ship things right away. Maybe give them a call and see if they can round you up one and ship it up.

thanks brad, im going down there on the long weekend.

[ag4ever]

Abun,

did you see the 206 at Toy-r-us?

I need to replace mine, as it is not working, and my nephew just loves playing with it in the pool. I would like to get the 206, so I can try and put the red hull under my blue top to kind mimick my SAN. Also I want the old style tower like they are putting on the 206 model.

I can't seem to find the 206 anywhere but my dealer, and they want like $70 for it. I think that is crazy when wally world sells them for $39.77.

[AbunDiga909]

ag4ever, I definitely saw it, both the 206 and 210 in toys r us. I'm actually surprised by your prices, I saw it for 40 at toys r us, and our dealer sells them for 50, and gives one away for free if you buy a boat, kinda like a buy one get one free, except the R/C version. And Overtons is the only place that i've seen them sold for 70, which i agree is outrageous.

Did your "local toys r us" not have them? It seems you kinda wanto to make a hybrid R/C nautiuqe...seems cool!

[ag4ever]

I only checked one, and they did not have any, but I also checked three wall-marts, and only one had the 210's. I guess I will just have to fall on the 206 when the time is right.

Yeah, I too am surprised at how much the dealer wants for them, and they also gave away like ten of them at the boat show as well as some wakeboards and coolers. They gave out a hundred or so small coolers just for showing up at the 211 grand unveiling, and I have one of them, as well as a large version. Both are hign quality coolers that have the dealer's logo stiched into them.

And, yes I plan on doing a hybrid r/c nautique. It must look like the full size version!

[AbunDiga909]

lol... looks like you've got a plan... and it seems like the dealer wants to make up for all the money put into those nice coolers...
