I can't say for sure but past experience with identical remote control cars did prove to be a problem as both cars were controlled by the same frequency. When the cell packs go bad I've had to replace them at our local hobby shop. This boat is a lot of fun. I bought it for my grandson(10). We run it on the lakes. Battery lasts about 30 minutes and the boat handles well.

I returned this boat because the charger is an assembly of AA batteries - there is no AC charger. So, I was looking at a significant expense for batteries. I would recommend you look at a boat with an AC charger.

You should be able to use them together. They are 2.4ghz so it will be fine. These do not use lipos and I wouldn't recommend them without a voltage cut off anyways. If you really want lipos, look for a small heli lipo with around 400mah capacity. They are small

yes we can even perhaps get you 2 different colors. We sell extra batteries on our site Fantasy World Hobbies.com. best would be to call us at 253-682-0930 Monday

I would not recommend this product. The first boat I bought, the remote did not work. The replacement boat, the remote worked but the engine did not. I would recommend the Aviva Sports ranger fishing boat. We bought this and loved it. Just be very careful around boat antenna. I accidentally broke it. I bought another one through treasure chest for 34.99. Pro Bass sells this boat too, for about the same price. They seemed to be out of them. I hope this helps.

Yes you can sharge 2 lipos at the same time, or 1 lipo and 1 NiMh, as I ofter do. Brands of batteries don"t matter, just type, and size. Charger works great!

Oh yea it will! Your rustler will just plain get it with this set up! I would just run a 2s lipo though, until you want to make people cry :) I would also recommend the castle link so you can program it with your computer. You will need to set it to the nihm setting and then change it back to lipo so you will be able to run it until you get your lipos.

I'm not trying to spend your money for you, but, you should really try a 2-cell LiPo (lithium polymer) battery pack. It will be like driving a whole new car. I promise you won't regret getting one.

One battery. You can use a LiPo which will give you longer battery life and more speed.

Yep, you should be able to hook them up to two 12 volt batteries permanently as the wires are set that way. I didn't have room to mount the charger in the boat so I bought some battery clamps for the end of the wires that hook to the batteries and charge them that way. When the batteries are fully charged, I pull the clamps, unplug the charger, and store the charger away. I like this better as I can see when the batteries are fully charged and not have the charger continuing to trickle charge the battery. Although, they say that is ok. So far, this charge works great!!

If you use a 3cell lipo this will be faster than the velineon. It will generate heat. If you pound on this motor with a 3 cell you will probably go into thermal. Most people would use a 2 cell with the motor however I would not. None of my cars are spec cars.

The sidewinder esc comes with no connector on it so you can solder whatever end is required for your battery. I highly recommend using a 2s lipo battery. You will be disappointed using the battery that you mentioned. I use deans connectors on all my rc's. Batteries and esc's. Hope this helps.

2S LiPo batteries are great for backyard bashing. 3S batteries provide a LOT more speed. You can gear up to 60 mph with a 3S LiPo. I recommend having both a 2S and 3S for different bashing experiences.

You need the motor mount that attached to the back of the boat. Also, I used a marine battery for my motor. It has to be a marine battery not a normal car battery. Other then that just the trolling motor, motor mount, and battery is all you need.

I finally got to use the Barbwire this weekend and I was very impressed with how the boat works and the batteries lasted 15 mins with continuous high speed use even through 1 ft waves. It takes a couple hours to charge the fully dead three cell battery and I have two of them. You can charge through the 120 outlets plugin or right off of a car battery too with the connector that comes with the boat. I hope this helps anyone who wants to try this boat out for fast fun. BTW it does tip itself back over when it flips over in the water. Look for the youtube videos made for this boat.

It goes on no problem. You do have to use the included spindels. I would sugestt to get the aluminum hex nuts for the wheels. And with a brushless motor on 3 cell Lipo you may also need to get stronger wheels. These dtiveshafts are awesome and transfer power better and smoother as well as make the car handle better. These things are bulletproof

You can make your own or buy one online just. Ale sure the connectors are the same. I did this when I bought a 5000 mah 2s lipo for my buggy. Hope this answer your question.

Yes, you can hook this up to two or more batteries. Just make sure to hook them up in parallel. + to+, - to-. This is a great starter kit, you can start with just this panel and one battery, then add more as you go. (If you are like me you will want more!) It would take about a day and a half to charge two car batteries when fully drained. My 122 amp hour marine battery will charge in a day. If you want a backup power setup more batteries per panel is better, but if you plan on a high daily usage you will want more panels per battery so it can recharge the batteries during the day.

You can't use anything but a one cell LiPo, but you can use a larger capacity single cell. A larger cell gives longer flight times, but poorer performance due to the weight. In such a light aircraft every gram counts. The 75 MaH battery that comes with it gives plenty of flight time. Just buy a handful of spares for more flights.

I do not know the capatibility of the OEM charger and the Holy Stone LIPO batteries. Have fun with the boats.
