RC ADVENTURES - UNBOXiNG a Kyosho Surfer 3.0 Lost Edition RC Surfboard

DANG! I hate getting a new product, and having a piece broken inside! Honestly, I was surprised at the good quality of the surfboard, but the bad quality of the surfer dude. For me, the radio feels too "empty" - but for a $239 unit - overall this surfer board is killing it! The radio does have great options for control, and the graphics and qualify of the hull feel good! After a quick shot of glue.. the surfer dude's broken arm was on the mend - and I assembled this board. I use the word assembled lightly here - as its really only attaching the surfer dude to the board! Its a bit tricky, but with a bit of patience - very doable. And though this "boat" is only 7.4 NMHD battery driven, I have hopes that it will perform well enough to demonstrate it has more potential - there must be some room for an upgraded system! Dont worry - I will test it out first..
If you are interested in this product - I got it here:
