50" MONO With 5692/240HV

[keithbradley]

SOLDI guess Im going to put it up for sale...:ohmy:

This is the 50" mono I just built over the winter.

*5692 (1090kv) Leopard
*Swordfish 240HV ESC
*CNC'ed Aluminum housed Turnigy 959 coreless high torque servo
* 6mm-1/4" collet
*1/4" to 3/16" flex to allow use of standard 3/16" props
*OSE Turn fins
*OSE trim tabs
*Turningy LiFe 2s rx pack
*Octura 3/16" drive dog
*Billet aluminum custom motor mount
*CNC aluminum strut with bearings
*CNC aluminum Rudder
* Sharpened and balance octura x457 prop

Boat handles great (60 mph turns on a dime) and throws a big rooster. This boat could handle some seriously rough water and about all the speed you could throw at it.
Set up to run 8s2p or 9s2p for quick speed runs if you wanted. There is enough room in this hull to run 8s6p if you wanted. :biggrin:

Looking for $750 paypal + fees

will consider partial trades or if you have your own ESC Ill sell it for $500

Shipping will depend on where you are at, but US only for this big one please.

Just to prove I am selling this for the reasons I state, not because it doesnt perform. In a small pond with no room it runs in the 50's. One straight GPS pass (before video started) from one corner to the other GPSed at 57mph:

Nice boat!

That's Sharpe Park isn't it? That brings back some memories. The "Bristol" of RC boat racing:buttrock:

I am also willing to sell just the hull/harware if anyone is interested. For the hull with rudder, strut, tabs, fins, custom flex, drive dog, motor mount, ect...not to mention all the work I've put into this....pretty much ready for your motor/esc and servo, Ill go $300. It would cost much more than that to do it yourself!

Keith, is the graffix on the hull painted, vinyl, or is it the gel-coat ? Why didn't you use a stinger strut ?

The only stickers are the fighter cat ones I put on there, everything else is under the clear. Its not something that I would worry about coming off unless you sanded it down.

I had a strut on my 40" mono too, they work well and allow for a lot of adjustments to be made. In this case the strut and flex actually came on the hull when I bought it new, but I had to machine the flex end to 3/16" so you can use normal props.

To KR Joye:
I can't really see the pic on my phone, the screen is way too small, but I'll check it out when I get home tonight.

Whatcha got?
A 30-35" mono + cash would be ideal, but will consider other offers.

Yep, you are correct. Thats the thing i'm not sure if i want to swap out my 40" power plant to this hull or just break the bank and go ARTR.

I think Im going to pass on the hydro. It does look pretty cool, but Im not sure it would get much use with me. Thats really the reason Im getting rid of this mono. I just dont think I will use it much given the hassle of transporting such a big boat (along with my 3 kids)

Thanks for the offer though. If you get a minute, send me a PM and let me know where you race in Michigan.
