Once the lakes are solid, the canal between opens up, and I can run all winter. About a week away by the look of it. I knew this would be a good combo for this boat, keeping it pretty light with the S size can and sigle 4s2p 4000mah pack. I know this motor gets an SV ripping, so this thing should be plenty capable of 50.
        I think I'll try a Venom 3 blader aluminum too.
        Put a Feigao 540 S, 2200kv with Seaking 90 Amp ESC and a 4s, 5000mAhr, 40C LiPo in my Sniper for a test rde today. (Fortunately our lakes do not freeze over in southern Ca!). It ran straight and true, turned terrific and was incredibly fast. The prop was a 436 Plastic and ran in the mid 40's. I did not have a GPS or Eagle Tree on it so do not know the exact numbers. I think you are correct in that it is "Plenty capable of 50".

          Excellent! This little guy is too much fun. I need to get me a bunch of props to test. I have 0 right now. Just the stocker. Do you use any neg angle on the starboard side trim tab to counter act prop walk, or does she run nice and flat with that prop?

            Runs nice and flat. No one to take video for me but Mark F and Tony will be down on Wed for a days run and we should get some video then. It is real easy to handle, one of the best boats and second only to the Insane Hydro I have!

              After seeing vids of this little guy dialed in, I had to have one. My Delta Force 26 was on of the most fun boats to run that I have owned. Maybe THE most fun. No stress, and like you said... Let her rip!
              I agree Rumdog, I really miss having a fun simple boat to blast the local ponds ! I am going to build somthing like that soon with some of my xmas money . I have a couple ideas for a hull , I really like the Titan 29 but am leaning towards the Titan 33 with strakes and a 1515 for motor 2200kv for motor.
