RC Boat With Onboard Camera Sinking – Traxxas Villain And Popsicle Stick Boat
An old broken and worn out radio control speed boat is sunk in the lake instead of being put out for the trash man. An onboard camera was put on to record the sinking.It was attached with velcro and tethered with a fishing line in order to recover the camera. A good pull ripped the velcro apart once the boat had sunk.
I used my popsicle stick rc tugboat to pull it out to the site where it would be sunk. Please see my other videos for a video of that boat with an onboard camera. Once at the site, the duct tape that covered the holes that were drilled in the hull was pulled off and it began to sink. Only the tug made it back to shore.

I used to have the same Traxxas boat back in the 1980s and had hours of fun swapping gear ratios on the drive to get the maximum speed, turning hollow aluminm tubes around the motors to keep them cool, swaping the magnetic brushes as they wore out, having an auxilary water pump to cool the engines while it was sitting stil and speeding around the nearby ponds until finally it gave out. I admire your devotion to a once great hero. I thought I was the only fanattic
