I have only got to try it in my pond so far to get used to how it handles, it's my 1st boat. These babies need room to get to enough speed to turn properly so I can't give an honest review of the boat itself although it got my adrenaline pumping on my pond test. It's been to windy in my area to go to the lake just yet. I do have to say amain hobbies processes my orders fast and notifies me when it's shipped and I really appreciate that. I live way out in the country and depend on deliveries to get parts for my cars and other toys. 61 yrs old retired having as much fun as I can, like a kid again, before the world we all thought we knew is changed forever. Have fun, love and play with your toys no matter how old you are. It's all about kids and finding that part of us we all still really are and miss so much. God Speed...
For the price you get a lot of boat and it's very fast and user friendly. This is a fantastic boat for $400 and right out of the box it moves. Get some good batteries and she will deliver results. This is better than the V1 so make sure you get the V2 version.
Great boat but make sure you lub the prop shaft before you run it! I also upgraded the cooling system it will run hot out of the box on 6s. I also got the program box to change the ESC to 6s p/n SPMXCA200 I run 6s 120c batteries 50mph out of the box! Very fast boat a few upgrades and you have a 65mph boat!The self righting works great!
Worth every penny boat performs like a rocket on 6s Lipo’s only complaint is comes with a stock Smart Spectrum 120amp esc that has all the bells and whistles for telemetry but has a tendency to overheat. I upgraded to 160amp esc it now it performs flawlessly and honestly I can’t wait for the weekend to go bashing, did I mention it is self righting.
this is great boat. out of the box easy to drive and toss around. I say top speed is about 42-44mph, but only a quick change of the prop and easily hitting in the 50's mph.
Reviewers broadly praise the Sonicwake 36 V2 for speed out of the box, ease of handling, self-righting function, and value at about $400. Several note it runs well above stated speeds on upgraded batteries or props. Recurring complaints include steering that is weak or reluctant to turn left, slop in the rudder from stock servos, and a stock ESC that can overheat on 6S, with some owners upgrading cooling or the ESC. A flex shaft and motor coupling were reported misaligned or broken in two reviews, one of which was returned. Some reviews are short or based only on pond testing, and shipping from the seller was praised.
