Custom 54" cat twin

[DISAR]

That's a really good wax then,which one is it?

[ls1fst98]

haha how much to build me one??? no need to join the deck and hull or lay in carbon, just bare minimum lol

great build and cant wait to see it done.

[DISAR]

this is possible, but shipping will be high. It's a really big boat.

Battery trays made by glass-carbon plate and glued to the hull. Almost ready...

and some props to test

That's the layout, preparing the boat for painting and decals....

I thank everybody who helped me to set this boat, especially Manuel, Gerwin, Make-a-wake, bill34207, etc... their ideas and experience really helped me plus my co-boater friends ofcourse

Very nicely done!

[DISAR]

Thanks, it needs some detail job like wires shortening etc... but the result is very good. Already thinking of more power!

Hello George,

nice video. I'll try to visit you and Kostas in Greece this summer, maybe with some of my boats.

Best regards and keep up the work,
Manuel

Thank you Manuel, for your help, yeah it will be nice to meet you!

Thank you Rumdog!

I have owned and tested a few boats until now, and I must admit that this one is my most favorite. Big twin cats rule!
-Not so expensive setups, nowadays
-Can reach very high speeds
-Handle choppy water with ease
-Nice scale look of the racing cats can be done

This boat can go much faster, first I will try with 455s and might even run 7s with HV240A or change the motors. But I need to find a bigger area to run the boat because as soon as it reached top speed I have to slow it down

setup results from the first trials

2xCastle/NEU 1717 1580kv, 2x Turnigy 180s with extra caps, 6s per motor, 445s, 90km/hr= 55mph

same setup with 448/3s, 99km/hr= 61.5 mph

If I could keep the boat more on full throttle the speed might be more. Temps were all normal not more than 130F eventhough I have some doubts for the cooling water and I will change my inlets to be from the ruddder
next trials with 455s

This is generaly accepted as a very good sign...!
