    Miss Vegas Electrified Video and Pics

    A build I literally did overnight, a total of 5 hours. I striped the O.S. 21 I bought and (sold it this morning),mounted all the neccessary hardware. Basically It's all stock except the turn fin and rudder. I left the stuffing tube alone it was fine for the cg and keeps the weight on the nose nicely with the batts in. The plan is to run it on 22 volts or 2 11 volts lipo's, the vid is with 2 7.4 volt lipos. She has a 8xl in it with a 120 hydra. Motor and esc was warm but not hot after the 1st run which is the video. Batts where ......................cold !!!!:D Enjoy !!

                Do you have a GPS to throw in there? Curious because Dirty gave up on his Vegas because he couldn't move it very fast.

                  Looks like the bullet connectors got hot enough to melt the heat shrink. Mine did that first time out and had to resolder the connectors. No problems since then.

                          yeah it runs nice, no heat, no problems. the pics show some heat shrink damage but thats from me trying to plug them in so I peeled them back and ripped some of it off. but all in all it runs good for a 5 to 6 hour overnight conversion. We need to gps it this sunday with your Vegas Tunda........................

                            I really dont think I need to test it anymore it ran fine after the vid was taken, a total of 3 runs on Sunday and no mishaps. I am quite pleased with the outcome.

                              tweaking strut adjustment. why be happy with good when you could have best?
