            I haven't ran a boat since my last video and that was the blast. Now with a 3s I will run this boat and the MG. the MG will be tested on 5s a little and I will fine tune the strut or try to.

              Just tested on3s, too fat. Never got to ill throttle and it jumps out if the water and rides flat!! I think it's as fast or faster than my mg. I got a good video of it.

                  Hey guys, if you watch the video you might notice the boat pulling way hard to the right. Chine walk I guess. How can I adjust this?

                    Just trim your rudder to the left a bit so when you get to full throttle it runs straight, no way around that in an overpowered small boat...........its torque steer.

                        Going to try and test the boat on 2s today and then I'll run on 3s for fun again. I'll try some video today

                            Well my cousin just told me he tried his blast on 3s, same set up as mine almost. Well he said it was way too fast an could never get to full throttle, the drive shaft got hot, broke the coupler from motor to drive shaft. But I think a Traxxas steel output should fix that and an easier finger will help.

                              Is that a drive shaft or flex?

                                It's a shaft. Just a rod
