    I ran mine last weekend with a 10L on 4s and it was ballistic! Changed out the 10L with a 8XL for a little lower KV and a little more weight. Going to try it this weekend.

        I like the Grim 38x55L the best so far. Anything bigger and it might as well be an airplane lol. Hitting the water first thing in the morning.

          Hope it goes well, Keep it flying on the water,not the air.
          I have never used grim props. I am somewhat new and have used only Octura , dont know of advantage or disadvantage at this point. Planning on running a x645. According to the OSE calc I should get 65 mph with current system setup. I will post pics when I get home, out of town now and my esc has been shipped(Fightercat) so build will start Tues.

            Sorry for the poor quality. This is with a 8XL on 4s 5000mah and 38X55L prop. It's very stable and alot of fun.

              Wow!!! That was a stable running boat. Do you know the speed or have a guess? What brand of batts are you using and what is the C rating? I am planning on buying the 35c 5000 for mine from hobby king.I ran into another snag with my build, I got my fightercat esc and the size was a bit more than expected so I am having a removable motor mount machined tonight ( so I can remove esc) I will then set everything in it place and check it again then bond MM in place. I do have to get my batts ordered this week. My dummy batts will suffice for now.

                    I have a Venom Miss Excite which is the same as the 24 and I love it.
                    I'm running a Novak 4.5hv on 2s2p and it runs the same speed as a UL1 motor on 4s

                    The boat runs in the 50mph range
                    Solid runner for its size actually amazing.

                    I seen a guy on youtube running one at about 80 lol!
