    Triple Cat

    I got this Daytona/Genesis hull from FighterCat a while back.I re-inforced it with FG matting and resin.I also sprayed Great Stuff window and door expanding foam in the front for a little more strength and mostly for flotation.
    The 3 motors will be Align 600XL outrunners in 1650kv and most likely X447 props.These will be run on 6s with 120 amp esc's.Im still waiting on the stingers from Ben,so as of right now,Im at a standstill.I will be using .187 flexes,2 left hand and 1 right hand.
    This wont be a speed record setter-Im expecting low to mid 60's with it.Im building this a triple just to have something different.

      No,no,no..Just wanting something out of the ordinary.I learned alot from my EKOS by not re-inforcing it to begin with,so every hull I get will get it.These motors arent really a "hot" kv for 6s,but it ll run good Im sure.The Prop Shop in the UK has some bigger than 47mm and 50mm twin drive props,so maybe I can move up a bit in diameter without heat and amp loads since there will be 3 motors.

        You got my attention my man!! I like it!!!

        Lets stop bending the rules of normalcy, instead lets destroy them! I love seeing out of the ordinary builds. I like doing them too obviously.

        I'm watching.

                I bet you hit 70's with that setup when you find the right prop. This thing is going to be a monster Larry. Very cool build

                            Thats what they are.Theres an "outer"can to them.Thats why you see water jackets on 2 of them.
