Shawn, looks fast, fun and handles well. Now watch out for bears poking you on the shoulder LOL

Dude, that thing rips!!!!! You make me nervous running such a nice boat in a small pond moving that fast! The pond is not that small, your boat just eats up real estate very quickly... Nice vids!

I got out unexpectedly today and tried the Propshop 4518/2's.Thats better.Still nothing hot but it is going too fast for aggressive cornering.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG7zB...iDSIKv3E8nM_g=

30 sec???

30 sec???

I know. I was having to pay more attention to where I was going than to where I was pointing my Tx mounted cam.It is supposed to be decent next weekend so hopefully a few of the guys will want to go out.

So i guess question is...are you happy with the props? and do they perform well

[srislash]

The props are great.Some work to get them fully balanced.They load up the motors a bit better.I have those ABC 3 bladers coming too.But they are 50mm.I also tried some Lucas marine grease on the flexes and I still had some on them when I got home. I hadn't said this yet but I must've clipped something under water because the rudder flipped up.I didn't know this when I did the full throttle run back towards myself.It does't slow too quick from full plane.It hit the shore and launched.All is OK except for some clear and striping touch up.I chucked it back in after a look over.I may need a bigger lake.

I got a camera man today so I got some better/longer time recorded.I lifted the hull today a little but it was predictable and no problem getting it settled.This was after the camera of course.I can't wait to try some 5016/3's.

Tried the X450's on 5s today.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRy7z...=youtube_gdata
Had a peak current of 118 amps on the ET.That is per motor.It mostly ran in the 60 -70 amp range.

[nata2run]

What's better, 4518's or 450's? You should have more total pitch on the 4518? No?

[srislash]

You know,I don't think I've tried the 4518's on 5s.I think the 450's on 5s are as fast as the 4518's on 6s.I need a radar gun.I'm not buying another GPS.

Is this the same hull as the mg just carbin fiber?
