I just got the wl911 and it has a 850mah battery and goes the same speed. The only difference is that this has water cooling

RCWave Surfer - 6 years ago

Hi ryan,please comment about the upper hatch of the wltoys wl912 ,the locking system is inadequate ......they will pay attention to reviewers like your self.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 6 years ago

I had no issues with it. I flipped the boat several times, etc, and no water got in, and at no time did the hatch come off either.

FatGuyWithAKatana - 6 years ago

since it's a boat it's like 12.9 knots, but 24 kilometers per hour sounds more impressive

Jayanta Majee - 6 years ago

is this boat is better then WL915

Flyin' Ryan RC - 6 years ago

They are entirely different types of boats, so it's hard to say which is "better". But, by most measurements, the WL915 is better... it is more stable in the water and has a brushless motor.

ThatKidJake - 7 years ago

Is this better than the UDI001 venom boat?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 7 years ago

I don't know since I don't have any experience with the UDI boat.

Rohendra Devan - 7 years ago

is this boat better than the ft009 rc boat?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 7 years ago

That is for you to decide, based on the info I have provided in my review. :)

Hunt Craven - 8 years ago

who do we blame for the sea weed ......................... obama! lol

Scott Nho - 8 years ago

+ hunt craven you are right

Sergej Nadaždin - 8 years ago

and the rudder on the boat is offset, so mine has better turning.

Sergej Nadaždin - 8 years ago

mine charging time is hour and a half and runtime is about 8 - 10 min.

Sergej Nadaždin - 8 years ago

AND the charger is different.

Sergej Nadaždin - 8 years ago

ok. except the remote and the battery.

20. comment for WLtoys - WL912 Speed Boat - Review and Run

Sergej Nadaždin - 8 years ago

EXACTLY same as mine, but different paint job. even the remote. even the SPEED!

aidan c. - 8 years ago

Your cameraman is pretty good!

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

I'll pass the compliment on to him! :)

Glen D. Spicer - 8 years ago

Great boat, real nice video review.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Thanks! :)

BlueSunsChurch - 8 years ago

Ryan if you're not sure if the boat has self writing or not you should always just get a bathtub and tested like that

Steve RC - 8 years ago

Nice review Ryan. Thanks for the Feilun comparison.
Thanks also for including the reverse capability note.

Steve RC - 8 years ago

Sweet! Going there next!!!

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Just for you buddy. ;) And, I don't recall if I did it in the run for this one or not, but I think in my H101 review, and my FT011 review (which comes out today) I even did a 3-point turn during the run. hahaha

The QueensConquerer - 8 years ago

Gosh these boat reviews make me want to get the Feiluns so badly XD

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Be sure to tune in for my review today... ;) ;)

Pahga - 8 years ago

Yuk! That seaweed IS a pain in the boat.

Mike Meyer - 8 years ago

+Flyin' Ryan did you ever get a yacht, decide not to do that, or just swamped with other things to review?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

I never did get one... I couldn't decide on one, and the thought of trying to store it in my house really deterred me. I like the idea of reviewing one, but I'm just not sure it's in the cards for me.

20_Aden_02 - 8 years ago

By the way, the reason it turns right so well is because it is based of of a competition racing boat. The boats race around a track where turning right is vital.

joe smucatelly - 8 years ago

Will chlorine (pool water) mess up the water cooling?

yellowbusguy - 8 years ago

Doubtful. But if you are concerned, you could always flush the system with tap water.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Hmm, that's a good question. I don't think so, as I know people have used RC boats in pools.

J Dog - 8 years ago

Good video except for the wind noise but I guess you have to be a boat lover to enjoy playing with them because that seems pretty boring but thanks for the review

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Boring!? It is far from boring! And I am no boat lover by any means. This one is a bit slow, but in general I have been having an absolute blast with RC boats!

Elliott DeHollander - 8 years ago

Funny how the boat is called the 912 and your video was 9 minutes and 21 seconds. Lol

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Hahaha, interesting!

Unregistered X - 8 years ago

Could you donate some rc?

Idiots in Tennessee - 7 years ago

Flyin' Ryan RC I am in Tennessee

+Flyin' Ryan RC oh I'm at Hawaii

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Only locally.

Jaco (Hunteds RCs) - 8 years ago

Nice boat.. Like it.. You must really add a wind jammer to that hatcam.. I did a mod on my Yi cam and it works very well against the wind noise. Check it out on my channel if you want...

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Cool, I'll check that out, as I have definitely been thinking about testing some sort of mod to help with the wind noise. :)

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

The things that happen when you spend all day talking into a camera. lol

DeucesWild RC - 8 years ago

For a second I thought you were gonna chuck it out there like a football to clear the weeds lol

Danny02 - 8 years ago

+Flyin' Ryan RC can you please that would be awesome

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

I could. :D

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

Lol voice crack at 1:46 ;P Have you seen this one? It has a 540 motor in it, crazy when the already crazy fast A959 is a 390! Like you said, not the fastest, but still looks fun :) Nice review

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

@Flyin' Ryan RC Oh cool, didn't know you had it :) They actually said they can't work with my since i am working with a differnt GB guy, lol. They told me to tell them to order it though, haha.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

@The RCAddict Nice! I just filmed my run of the WL915. A bit slower than I was expecting, but super-stable. It seems to want to sink at times though... I think the way the self-righting works tends to draw water into the boat, making it want to sink. You have to keep it moving to keep it afloat. Glad you're getting more sponsor offers now! :D

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

@Flyin' Ryan RC Second comment, we decided on this one http://www.gearbest.com/rc-boats/pp_354512.html haha, not quite the car, but I asked the other GB guy for it. This will be the first one from this specific guy. Email come in like crazy now... wow

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

@Flyin' Ryan RC Maybe you need headphones/earplugs becuase it is so loud? lol Well, I asked for it, so we will see ;)

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

@The RCAddict And the green does have me tempted. haha

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

@The RCAddict I'm still laughing. Seriously, WHAT DOES IT MEAN!?!?! hahahaha

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

@Flyin' Ryan RC Yeah, I am worried about that, butttt... I still want to try it, lol. Wow, I didn't notice that until now! LOL

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

@The RCAddict Ah, nice, I've had a few people mention that, but I just sort of brushed it off because an even faster A959 just sounds like a ton of broken parts to me. lol Also, I just cracked up... why does it says "Headphones" on the side of the car!?!? Oh China, you so crazy!

The RCAddict - 8 years ago

@Flyin' Ryan RC oops, yeah haha. http://www.gearbest.com/rc-cars/pp_374031.html

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

I think I just stumbled over my words a bit. Or, maybe I'm still going through puberty right after just turning 39 years old. lol Did you mean to post a link for "this one" that you wanted me to look at?

"Boats are like children: They are just fine as long as they belong to somebody else. "
I wish I could take credit for this line but it's not mine.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

BOAT = Bust Out Another Thousand! Fortunately RC boats are much less high-maintenance. :D

Andrews RC - 8 years ago

Who's that camera man at 4:33?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Yep, but he hasn't been active on it for a while. He has some video game videos, and a few videos of us doing some target shooting out at my parents house. :) https://www.youtube.com/user/IAmStizzle

Andrews RC - 8 years ago

Dose he have a YouTube channel I can watch?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

That is my friend and coworker, Josh. This pond is at his apartment complex. So, I go over to his place to film boats, and then he can run a second camera. :)

Pro-EveryThing-66 - 8 years ago

I might get one now

Pro-EveryThing-66 - 8 years ago

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Thanks! I don't do giveaways for many reasons, but I do occasionally host contests from my sponsors on my Facebook page.

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

I don't recall the exact stick movement... you would need to refer to my review for that info. :)

George paul thottam - 8 years ago

Why is it 912 after 913

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

This boat is really old. It came out before the 913.

luis loredo - 8 years ago

hi flying Ryan I have a syma x13 and when it Flys it goes to the side plzz help me ☺

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Recalibrate the accelerometer.

Ali Atif - 8 years ago

would you prefer l929/l939 or jjrc h8 mini?

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

It's all a matter of personal preference, so which I would choose really has nothing to do with which you might choose, especially since the 3 air vehicles you mentioned are all very different from eachother. I prefer the L939 and H8S.

Ali Atif - 8 years ago

in terms of car: would you prefer Feilun rc or l939?
in terms of quad: h8 mini, eachine h8s, or jjrc h20

Flyin' Ryan RC - 8 years ago

Well, one is a ground vehicle and one is a quadcopter, so there is no way for me to compare them.
