Overview

Back to Top ^

The Formula FASTech is one of the most eye-catching performance boats on the water, and Pro Boat's scale replica is no different.  The potent brushless electric motor and programmable electronic speed control takes the FASTech to lightening fast speeds without hesitation.  The offset rudder and adjustable propeller strut allow precise handling in a variety of water conditions, and the magnetic hatch allows quick access to electrical components when you need it.  Add the authentic "Lunar Reactor" trim scheme from Formula, and it's easy to see that there's absolutely nothing else like it on the water!

Tech Notes

Back to Top ^

Due to the high current rates associated with brushless electric boats, ProBoat recommends using batteries with an ability to discharge at a minimum of 25 amps (25C). The DYN5360D (LiPo) or PRB3313 or PRB3314 (NiMH) are good choices with matched cells and quality chemistries.

Lower quality batteries cannot maintain a high enough average voltage to keep the electronic speed control from entering the low voltage cutoff mode. This safety feature protects the batteries and esc from damage.
