Project 41" Sprintcat!

[Brushless55]

Apparently I'm not. I can't seem to hold on to my cash this year!!

I'm certainly loving the twin cats. The mono cats are nice too. They just look really cool in the water and the twins sound awesome!

Batteries are whats going to suck for me.. 4 5s packs for one run..
and I need more 2s packs for my other boats..

Yeah, I'm having an issue with that myself. Although the Zippy 10s 30c packs are looking like a great deal!

I usually get 6s packs and break them up how I want them.

Some measurements and a comparison to the Genesis

Haven't decided if red or blue, with black on white.

Not sure how I'm going to seal the rear of the hull yet. There's a few ways. Might just glue in some fiberglass and fill it.

Someone finally brought that hull its a hotr 41 right?

I'm thinking of this hull but the painted Arrow Shark Tsunami version

I tried to get someone to get that hull for the screamer no one bit.

Yeah. I should have gotten mine painted. I'm totally not a painter.

Time to start thinking about a paint scheme. I'm thinking royal/bright metallic blue. Probably some white, I'll spray on the white the gelcoat just doesn't brighten up, even with coats of clear.

I have some black and silver to accent with as well as black, silver and white pin striping to work with.

Suggestions? Photos? Links?

If this is the same size as his hull then... well.... Kick ass!

So... right now... I don't know if I'm happy or sad just yet!

rumdogs sprint is 34.5 inches but it is "called a sprintcat 40"

just a sugestion

two scorpion 4035 outrunners with 1070kv will push your hull with ease...and there only $180 each and jim will give you a 6% discount

Holy Sh!t, this is a BIG BOAT!

It's as wide as my 57" cat.

I'm really starting to question the installation of the tiny CC/Neu 2200's in such a big hull!

I'm starting to think this hull needs more. A lot more. Like twin Little Screamers. Twin Monster 200's and 6 or 8- 6s battery packs in series parallel. Wow, that's over a grand.

Unless I'm wrong and the 2200's will push her, I think I went in over my head and budget on this one.

My word!................thats hull is a whopper!

[FighterCat57]

Well... for now... it's going twin 4s 2200kv CC/Neu W/T180's.

Still waiting on large 40c lipos to get down in cost, about to where 20c packs are now before going big.

If this setup doesn't please, then I can always go bigger. No harm in starting with small props and working my way up to 45-50ish MPH.

Right now... I'm working on paint! One thing at a time. =)

Great choice! That should be a reliable setup. What prop choices do you have?
