The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Pocket-Rocket Offshore Performance! If you love the blistering speed and stress-free operation of the massive 36-inch Sonicwake but need something a little more manageable for the local pond, the 24-inch Sonicwake is your perfect match. The Hobby Hideaway Team loves this mid-sized offshore basher because it packs all the punch and self-righting technology of its bigger brother into a highly transportable package. Best of all, this specific version includes everything you need right in the box—including the battery and charger—making it the ultimate grab-and-go boat for a weekend at the cottage!
Aggressive Brushless Power & Self-Righting Technology Don't let the smaller footprint fool you; this 24-inch Deep-V hull rips across the water. Powered by a potent water-cooled brushless motor and a marine-grade ESC, it delivers thrilling top speeds and acceleration that will leave brushed boats in its wake. But the absolute best feature is the self-righting flood chamber. If you push a turn too hard and capsize, the left side of the hull automatically floods with water, changing the center of gravity and flipping the boat back upright in seconds. Once you hit the throttle, the water drains out the back, and you are instantly back to racing without ever needing to wade in for a rescue!
Key Features & Technical Specs:
100% Ready-To-Run (RTR): Comes with absolutely everything you need in the box, including a high-quality Spektrum radio, a compatible LiPo battery, and a charger.
Self-Righting Hull: Features an innovative flood chamber design that automatically flips the boat upright if it capsizes during high-speed runs.
Potent Brushless Power: Equipped with a water-cooled brushless motor and marine ESC for blistering speed and extended efficiency on the water.
Heavy-Duty Hardware: Features durable aluminum and composite running hardware, including a water-pickup rudder system that keeps your electronics running cool.
Clean Interior Layout: The hull features an optimized interior with secure battery mounting and a sealed receiver box to protect against moisture.
Premium Control: Includes a reliable 2.4GHz Spektrum radio system for precise, interference-free driving.
Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: To make sure that awesome self-righting flood chamber works perfectly every single time, battery placement is key! The boat relies on a specific center of gravity to roll over when capsized. Always make sure you secure your LiPo battery tightly to the left side of the battery tray (the same side as the flood chamber) as outlined in the manual. This ensures the boat naturally wants to list to the left and flips over effortlessly when upside down! Also, don't forget to grab a roll of clear marine hatch tape to seal that canopy seam before every run to keep the inside bone dry.
