Hi Scott. If I had to build the same over again I would have picked right from the start (right for me) . Lost too much trying different components. To get this one really fast, and keeping temps down I would have picked an 8s setup. It still is I suppose, using SF 240HV and 1580kv motors (may not be a safe one hehe). In the end, depends on what you want to spend on this project. But if you want something cool and not "pure standard" + not blow the budget, then maybe some CC Esc's with logging, 8s capable and NEU 1527/1.5D (that should give you good speeds on 6s with bigger props and more fun if you run 8s down the track) "I think" that would be the next step down from a pair of Lehners. Almost making this the ultimate in a 45" CAT (my opinion only) I'm looking into props now, trying to find the best pair for my setup. (x447 don't cut it anymore) I simply dont have enough RPM to get anyware on 6s. Again, Motors and ESC's seem to be a sensitive subject to recommend, so my sugestion to you is my opinion only. I'm happy for now with the CC1717's lets see how they handle 4518/3 on 6s - could be a fun 130km/h or....pure desaster.

Well it handles quite well I suppose haven't got alot past 100km/h I have seen the MHZ Mystic 114 fly off/flip at 190km/h thats like close to 120mph. so I'd say its cool.Visit www.customcfparts.com | Custom Boat Building | Custom Carbon Fiber Parts | Custom Graphics | LMT Premium Dealer | MGM Premium Dealer | YouTube | Facebook

Well at 120mph I would think I should get the net to catch it in the local pond.Actually,I guess that water will be useless.I'll have to go to a real lake with this one.I am totally leaning toward the MHZ as I like the rudder bracket(scale).I imagine shipping would be better as well as there is MHZ USA.Comment

MHZ look great, and a bit cheaper than HPR I think? But don't take my word for it. Don't buy out of the US not cheaper at all! Get it from Germany. Good service, and very prompt!Visit www.customcfparts.com | Custom Boat Building | Custom Carbon Fiber Parts | Custom Graphics | LMT Premium Dealer | MGM Premium Dealer | YouTube | Facebook

Hello, small observation....it may be a good idea to take a few measurements to make sure everything aligns. To get the hull to run striaght, one would asume you need the same distance from the rudder blade to the center of the propshaft. Going really fast, it might be possible that only the rudder and props are in the water at times. Anyway 4518/3's are on waiting for a moment to try it out.

and then ...
Yep looks the way to go.
Also check underhull alignment of the shafts.. uneven makes the boat unstable
Looking fwd to my new toy....
wooho.
will be interesting scrolling around the lake together... at 100.. !

It is definetly big lake time when you get the hull. Won't fit both of us in the small lake LOL I'm getting nervous about the small lake as it is.Visit www.customcfparts.com | Custom Boat Building | Custom Carbon Fiber Parts | Custom Graphics | LMT Premium Dealer | MGM Premium Dealer | YouTube | Facebook
