BOATS CAN FLY AND SHOULD! -

thanks, a lot of people that saw that video didnt realize the first 30 seconds is the ONLY time in the video where something isnt hooked on the boat. When I finally got it back it had 2ft of tangled weeds on the rudder and 6ft of fishing line wrapped on the prop. Thank god it was cold or that would have fried everything.
Lesson learned.
I plan on getting both of my villains running so one can save the other.
If anyone wants to donate a radio to my effort, please drop me a line. I have zero money to buy more equipment.....and I'd pay for the shipping. Then I could interchange my motor/esc and battery combo and put a lighter setup in which ever boat is designated as the rescue boat.
Unfortunately unless the rescue boat had gotten out there fast, it wouldnt have been able to bring her in, it was soooooo weedy. I'm never running there again.
-------------------
putting that aside, I think I need to angle the strut up just a bit more to stop the bouncing. It still isnt quite neutral. any tips would be helpful.
I've looked at "lou's fast rc" version of the villain and he has a lot of hardware sticking out the back. Would I really need all that to be stable? I'm willing to do it, his ran nice but his also had more power than mine.
Sorry lot of questions.
