Yeah, I have 5.5's that I ordered a while ago... I have a tracking #, but HKPost has no record of them... :GRRR:

Should be OK with dual Many Dean, Many Happy on 3s for some testing... If I have any troubles, I'll solder in the EC5's I have.

I guess HK Post is having trouble and it might be 2-3 WEEKS.

Oh well. Guess I'll start soldering.

Anyone have a link to a good BEC eliminator or UBEC with battery or whatever that I can easily velcro in from boat to boat?

I think the most trustable is a batt pack.

I'd suggest a nimh or nicad rx pack as well. OSE should hve 5.5 bullets.

I could break up an old NiMh stick and just plug it in. I'm sure it would last a while... what kind of Mah rating would I need?

Ah, the ze taste of zucc-sess, she is zweet, no?

Did a 15 minute run on 3s with a 445 prop and about 38mph. Didn't get and amp reading, but temps were in the 80-90 range. She runs nice and straight, no torque steer, a nice roost and like Alfa said, on acceleration the boat almost hits a 30 degree starboard list. I did at one point think it might flip.

Good stuff. Can't wait to see what it does on 6s.

Wish I had some video, it was smooth, stable and it turned well.


Did have a water leak from the stuffing tube, but it's probably from adjusting the strut and needs to be re-sealed.

Take a look at the inside of the transom. There is no fiberglass covering the join. So I laid some strips over the join and filled it with epoxy. Should be good to go.

Dayum, 4 tubes of epoxy in 1 day.

[tiqueman]

hmm, I will have to check that out.

Top and bottom joint looks strong

Top and bottom joint looks strong

Is there any fiberglass overlay on the seam?
There was just a butt joint with some foaming glue and I could see light coming through.

[rchippie]

I see a layer of fiberglass over the seem on mine.

Also im not going to use the 3s esc in my Genisis. I would like to sell it . what is a fair price to ask ?.

We ran 4s with no trouble last week on the stock esc, 39mph in stock trim.
