Graupner Jet Sprint RC jet-boat. For 2-channel RC (forward only) or 3-channel RC (with reverse). Semi-scale model of a Jet-Sprint boat for single electric motor and one JET unit with moulded hull, deck and cover. Graupner Jetboat DetailsIn Australia and New Zealand hotly contested races are held for these small high-speed jet-boats. The full-size machines are powered by 8-cylinder engines rated at around 1000 BHP combined with a jet propulsion unit. The races are run against the clock over a staked-out course consisting of narrow channels. The boats are capable of top speeds of around 145 km/hr, and acceleration from 0 to 140 km/hr takes 3 seconds. To find out more about this electrifying sport please refer to the August 1998 issue of the German magazine Schiffsmodell. With a SPEED 600 RACE 7.2 V electric motor and two low-cost 4-cell batteries our Jet-Boat is capable of speeds up to about 23 km/hr. In its standard form the jet-boat operates without a servo-operated reversing flap on the Mini-Jet propulsion unit, which means that a low-cost 2-channel radio control system (e.g. C 4 RACE) can be used. The experienced modeller may prefer to fit a 3-channel RC system so that the reversing flap on the jet unit can be controlled to provide reverse running.
