Big Rock Arrma Towing a boat

[dillon_mitko]

Made a homemade trailer custom to my Proboat Sonicwake 36 boat and haven’t got a scx10 quite yet so I decided to just attach a hitch system to my BRCC and it actually works quite well. It’s a little fast and sensitive, as expected, especially as a BRCC on 6S. but it’s a lot of fun.

Looks awesome, put up a few more shot especially of the hitch if you don't mind.

Sure thing. The hitch part attached to the truck was 5$ and the turnbuckle was 3$

I wondered immediately if you could fit a steering bearing into the tongue of the trailer but I may be over-thinking what probably isn't necessary. Looks fantastic.
Is that Sonicwake a good choice for a first boat?

If you have a large body of water yes as it’s a big boat that goes extremely fast. It does have the self rightening for if it flips so I would say yes if you have enough room for it. Keep in mind it goes 50mph!!?

That's awesome. Hope that tow hitch is rated to tow that trailer. ?

Oh, GROAN.....

The big reservoir near here is used for recreation (fishing, boating, tubing, etc), and now I remember seeing some guys running model boats there last summer. BIG ones. And they were fast!

PLEEEEASE.......no.....more.....hobbies.....!

Not gonna lie, that’s pretty bad ass. Does it have the backup assist like the F150 ??????

That is awesome @dillon_mitko! Please don’t take this the wrong way but you’re young right? I think you said you’re mid teens in another post? The reason I even bring it up is because I think it’s really frickin cool that you think outside of the box and build your own stuff and it’s quality man. Good design, craftsmanship and utilization of commercial parts. Most younger guys would rather spend mom and dads money rather than use their brain to make their own. Stay on the path you’re on brother!

+1 on this ^

That is really cool... But I want to see the Big Rock skiing behind the boat now... Lol
