          Heres some other 1/8th scale goodies . Screamer and the controversial KB4517xl. Hopefully the kb will be safe on my build thread since all the guys that hate me on here hated on my skills and didnt check this build out. I was hoping my skills would help my credibility but no matter wat some poeple are gonna hate on you and not give you credit. For all those that did watch the build I appreciate fully every peice of advice and every compliment. i dont know why the ose forum doesnt show me more love. 90 percent of the parts in all my boats were brought through ose. Oh well. Ill keep building and keep loving it. Even if no one else does lol.

            Koyo Bearings USA LLC Formed Following JTEKT Acquisition of Timken Division : this is whats in a new kb these are usa bearings so if they sucked it was on U.S. They are smooth as silk though. i cant tell any difference from my nmb's in my big brushed motor. You can barely hear that thing when its running.

              Starting to finish the paint scheme. The 3s 35c lipos i ordered pack plenty of punch .Cant wait to run it which might just be today.Did a tub test . This 3s 2760 kv outunner package seem really stout in the tub. Iregaurdless i still may step up from a 432 to a 632. I think the motor can swing it.All the lettering was painted on so dont talk too bad about me I did the best I could.

                            Got video. Man it was a blast to run i got @ least 6 min runtime on the 3s packs more really. I need to put some weight in the sponsons; when I really want to nail her shes ready to blow over.Check out the vid.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nodj_7eTXIkThat 2650 kv outrunner from mile high rc really does a good job.It may be enough to power a 12th scale on 3 s

                                Well; it could have been better if I would have set the exposure right. I was too stoked to pay attention. Yes it ran really good. That outrunner is quite a bit fot that hull. I estimate 50mph+ if she could stay on the water. Ill add some weights far front up in the sponsons.It will fly.The whole video was about a quarter throttle.
