Looks great. Need to get out in some open water and lay into it and see what she can do...

[iridebikes247]

thanks guys. yeah I need some open water, and flotation lol.

taking those two things into consideration I think my next day running should be faster.

this winter will be a mystic 113cm or an mmp titus with a 2028 i'm getting bored of building cats...almost.

got some more runs in this morning and will post videos, adjusted the click drives and added some more negative and pushed CG forward. the tp motors are really powerful they're putting a hurtin on my 12s 40c zippy packs, looks like i'll be contacting dinogy eventually their packs seem to really be proving themselves.

Guys,

I am wondering what prop I should use on my MHZ138. I will be using 12s on each motor 730KV ( Proteus skyrc). Total weight would be under 12 kg maybe 11.5kg fully equiped with esc and 4x 6s lipo. I was thinking of using x457 L&R rotating. Good choice or smaller?

[iridebikes247]

Sounds good to me the 457 prop is easy to spin with 730kv motors. The mystic 138 is a nice boat very smooth running.

730kv on 12s with 457 is a very nice sport setup. Remember it's 730kv unloaded, so more like maybe around 680 under load. you're in the very early 30k RPM so expect around mid-high 70's MPH with those props. A higher KV motor around 850kv on 12s would get you into the 90's (slightly tweaked props). Just depends where you want to be in speed. If you can, test the setup with a set of 447's and make sure the boat is running smooth before you mount the 457's. The TP motors Mike just installed are a brilliant choice if you don't want to spent a smaller fortune.

[iridebikes247]

thanks kent i think i made the right choice lol. will be running again this morning. i would also go with what kent said try out the 447 props first and make sure the temps are ok and nothing weird happens.

the tps can be had for like 180 bucks on tppowerusa.com not a bad deal. those proteus motors you have are pretty long i think, they'll have no problem making the boat move and spinning a big prop when you're ready. i originally built this boat with 730kv motors everything stayed cool and run time was great

Mike, that boat runs great man. Seems like you and Chris have really dialed in your boats. I really hope I can make it out there next month.

[iridebikes247]

thanks man yeah its been pretty time consuming to get it running the way i wanted to but im happy with it. you have the hpr 115 right?

Oh no!! I see you must have ran up onto the boat launch and she ended up on the retaining wall!! Hope no damage! !!!

Lol!

[Cooper]

Haha- just preparing ya all for the practical smart@$$ I am! For when we get together! Is that Ron lake?

[rabosi]

I have the C5009. I'm the third owner though. I've had it a couple months now and still haven't gotten it wet. I guess I should probably try to do that soon.
