Overview
With our 1/6 scale Jetstream RTR, Pro Boat brings to RC what the real kits bring to full-size jet boating — the freedom to send it almost anywhere, and the thrill of always coming out on top. This is the first RC jet boat built for bashing. It's meant to be thrown around in rough water, whether two inches or two hundred feet deep. Bring on the whitewater, streams, and jumps. You're ready for anything with the raddest RC boat on the planet!
Stem to stern, the 24-inch Jetstream is engineered to outmatch any other RC boat that tries to do the same feats. The jet pump propulsion system's reverse gate is just one example. Use it to back your Jetstream off a trailer or as a quick braking function out on the water. It's one of many features that perfectly capture the scale look and feel of a full-size boat.
A high-performance, water-cooled brushless system powers your Jetstream up the biggest streams and provides the muscle you need for manoeuvring. The built-to-bash design also includes a sturdy, rigid ABS main hull with an armor-plated underside, and a replaceable stainless steel wear ring for the jet pump housing. Downtime's always a drag, but with the SSL (Strap/Slide/Lock) quick battery swap system, you can plug in a fresh pack and be back in action in the blink of an eye.
Choose from two officially licensed liveries for your Jetstream. One reproduces the awesome Blake Wilkey Death Boat. The other has the custom, high-impact graphics of the MoJo H2O livery. Check out all the realistic details included with both — roll cage, full cockpit, steering wheel, simulated speakers, and more. You can easily turn on or off the front and rear LED lighting bars, and position the pilot figure (also inspired by Mini Boat Mafia's Blake Wilkey) in casual or driving poses. It all adds up to give your Jetstream the raddest scale looks in RC boating.
As an RC jet boat with no propeller or rudder, the Pro Boat Jetstream can run where no prop-driven RC boat can. It's equally at home on a small pond or on a big lake launching off of 1:1 boat wakes. Kids will have a blast bashing their Jetstream, and experienced RC boaters will want to push it to the limits pulling tricks off of waves and other crazy manoeuvres. For dependable control, the RTR package comes with a high-quality Spektrum SLT3 radio and electronics. Upgrades are available for adding even more durability and enjoying full Smart telemetry.

Technical Performance
The Pro Boat Jetstream 1/6 jet boat represents a significant engineering achievement in RC boating technology. Powered by the Spektrum Firma 4068 1600KV brushless marine motor and controlled by a Spektrum 100A brushless water-cooled marine ESC, this boat delivers impressive acceleration and top speed exceeding 20 miles per hour. The water-cooled brushless system is essential for marine applications, as the motor and ESC are cooled by water circulation rather than air, allowing for sustained high-performance operation without thermal throttling even during extended bashing sessions. The dual-stage motor cooler maintains optimal operating temperatures by efficiently dissipating heat through the surrounding water, ensuring consistent performance throughout your play session. The boat measures 24 inches (610mm) in length, 12.6 inches (320mm) in beam (width), and stands 8.9 inches (225mm) in hull height, making it substantial enough for impressive scale detail whilst remaining manageable for transport and storage. Weighing 3.2 kg (approximately 7 pounds), the Jetstream achieves an excellent strength-to-weight ratio that contributes to its agility and jumping capability. The rigid ABS hull combined with nylon glass-fibre composite armour plating provides exceptional durability for rock-strewn shallow water and aggressive bashing, whilst the replaceable aluminium wear ring in the jet pump housing allows for maintenance after running on sandy or pebbly water. The boat requires a 14.8V 4S LiPo battery with either EC5 or IC5 connector (sold separately) to operate, and the SSL quick battery swap system makes it practical to carry multiple batteries for extended water sessions. The direct shaft drive system with jet pump propulsion eliminates the vulnerability of traditional propeller designs, making the Jetstream ideal for shallow water, rocky streams, and other challenging environments where conventional RC boats cannot operate. As a ready-to-run electric RC boat with complete factory assembly, it requires less than one hour of assembly time and comes with all necessary electronics pre-installed and tested.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can the Jetstream be used by beginners and children? — Yes, absolutely. The Jetstream is designed to be fun for both kids and experienced boaters. As a ready-to-run model with pre-installed electronics, beginners can unbox it and start learning boat operation immediately without dealing with complex assembly or programming. The intuitive 3-channel Spektrum SLT3 transmitter is easy to learn, and the shallow water capability (just 2 inches) makes it safer for younger users compared to deep-water boats. However, adult supervision is always recommended for children, and a basic understanding of LiPo battery safety is necessary.
- What battery does the Jetstream need and how long does it run? — The Jetstream requires a 14.8V 4S LiPo battery with either EC5 or IC5 connector. The recommended battery is a 5000mAh 50C hardcase LiPo pack, which provides approximately 10-15 minutes of running time per charge depending on driving style and water conditions. The SSL quick battery swap system means you should carry at least two batteries to maximise your water time. Higher capacity or higher discharge-rate batteries can extend runtime or increase speed, though the boat is designed around the recommended specifications.
- What makes the Jetstream different from other RC boats? — The Jetstream's jet pump propulsion system with reverse gate sets it apart completely from traditional propeller-driven RC boats. This design allows operation in water as shallow as 2 inches, where propeller boats cannot go, and eliminates propeller damage from rocks, debris, and shallow water. The reverse gate enables realistic full-size jet boat maneuvering impossible with conventional rudder systems. The water-cooled brushless system provides sustained performance, and the durable jet pump design with replaceable wear ring is specifically engineered for rough water conditions. Additionally, the SSL quick battery swap system and comprehensive scale details make it a unique offering in the RC boat market.
- Is the Jetstream waterproof and suitable for rough water? — Yes, the Jetstream is fully waterproof as a marine-grade RC boat. The motor and ESC are both water-cooled rather than air-cooled, meaning they're designed to operate surrounded by water. All electronics are sealed and waterproof, and the boat features waterproof LED light bars. The rigid ABS hull combined with nylon glass-fibre armour plating provides exceptional durability for rocky streams, shallow water, and rough conditions. The stainless steel hardware prevents rust and corrosion. However, always rinse the boat with fresh water after use in saltwater or heavily chlorinated environments to maintain longevity.

These are quality components providing reliable performance. The boat is Smart-ready, meaning you can install an optional Firma 120A Brushless Smart Marine ESC and upgrade to a Spektrum Smart radio for full telemetry monitoring including battery voltage, motor temperature, and current draw. Aluminium and stainless steel upgrade components are also available for performance enhancement.
- How fast is the Jetstream? — The Jetstream achieves speeds exceeding 20 miles per hour (approximately 32 kilometres per hour). The exact top speed depends on water conditions, battery charge level, and driving technique. As a jet boat rather than a speed-focused racing boat, the focus is on versatility, durability, and capability across diverse water conditions rather than maximum velocity.
- What is the SSL quick battery swap system and why does it matter? — The SSL (Strap/Slide/Lock) quick battery swap system revolutionises battery changes in RC boats. Rather than struggling with traditional battery straps in confined spaces, you simply slide your LiPo pack into an SSL battery tray, which then inserts into the boat. A locking mechanism secures it in place. Removal is equally simple: unlock and slide out. This means battery swaps take seconds rather than minutes. You can purchase additional SSL battery trays separately, allowing you to keep extra charged batteries ready and maximise your water time without lengthy downtime between charges.
- What assembly is required for the ready-to-run Jetstream? — The Jetstream RTR comes almost completely assembled and ready to run. The motor, ESC, servos, and receiver are all pre-installed and tested. Assembly time is less than one hour, which may involve minimal tasks such as attaching the aerial, inserting transmitter batteries, and securing any protective pieces. Full instructions are provided in the detailed product manual. This makes it an excellent choice for anyone wanting to avoid complex assembly whilst still receiving a quality ready-to-run electric RC boat.
- What livery options are available? — The Jetstream is available in two officially licensed colour schemes.
