King of shaves P1

[sharkbite]

I just got my P1 today and started working on it. Took avery thang out. Going to put orange and black carbon fibre in it. Geting a ul-1 motor and 120 esc. I drilled out the outdrive and put a replacement bushing for the speed master 3/16" Stinger struts in it works pretty good. Thats all i got done tonight. Will put up pics soon.

Ul-1 motor has tons of power and the 120amp esc will be perfect. I'm assuming your gonna be running 4s lipo? What size prop are you looking at using?

[sharkbite]

Yes 4s or 4s-2p for offshore class. Dont know what prop yeat 40-52 3plade or 640 or 442 we will see:tongue_smilie: Have to put turnfines on it to. Will try to put up pics today.

Here are some pics.

GREAT PICTURES -THAT P1 SHOULD REALLY FLY WITH 2030 KV UL1 MOTOR!! HOW ABOUT THAT BBY MONO NO.3 WHITE AND YELLOW BOAT NEXT TO YOURE P1 BOAT-1 BET THAT BOAT WOULD SCREAM WITH THAT P1 MOTOR AND ESC-WHAT DO YOU THINK? I THINK YOU SHOULD TRY THAT!!:banana::banana:

So how big is that P1 hull really?? They say 35" but then the specs page say's 31", which is it? Are they considering it 35" overall including the hardware? I love that scale Fountain look, very cool boat!

[Jesse J]

yes 35" includes hardware. it is a hair under 31" and yes very cool!! I would suspect 642 a minimum, but still do quite well, hopefully in the 40s. love to watch overhaul threads...

[sharkbite]

[sharkbite]

Well..... Not as fast as i would like.........but still working on it. will have a vid up soon. This boat loves rough water does relly good in it. I put an x442 on it and got 35.9.

Why the big hunk of wood?

[sharkbite]

wood?

[Rumdog]

Yeah, inside the hull. Is it from the stock boat? I'd tear it back out and strap the batteries right to the floor to get the center of gravity lower.

[sharkbite]

o ok that wood......lol I put it in there to keep the bats dry and so i can run 1 4s pack or 2 2s packs.

Here is a vid. My son took it with my phone so may not be so good. But here it is:thumbup1:

My friend Richard has the big king of shaves p1. So we are runing togather.:buttrock:

[sharkbite]

ok.... i thank the rudder is to small it does not turn so good. So i put a biger 1 on it. Will try it out next week. here is a pic

[LarrysDrifter]

Lipos getting wet does not hurt them.

[sharkbite]

yah.....i got some of my lipos wet to and thay are ok just dont like it.

[Rumdog]

It is because it is an inline rudder that it doesnt turn well. An offset rudder will make it run much better.

[sharkbite]

your right about that. I will try the big rudder first and if no better i will offset it
