    New build a CRC Mystic 73" Catamaran

    Hello, I ordered a 73" Mystic from CRC and I'm looking for help on set ups, Hull and Hardware will come from CRC. I'll take my time with this as its my first real build. Any help on electronics would be appreciated it. I know LMT are the best but I'm willing to see other options on esc and motors.

    Thanks,

      Looking forward to seeing your build. Did you get the standard FG layup or CF in lay option?

        I ordered with CF layout.
        The Lehner are very sweet but man really expensive, I bet they are worst every penny..
        What about esc's options?

        By they way thanks for your opinion.

            The Castle's are the best bang for the buck, i have had setups where mine was logging over 8000 watts...........just over 10hp......for one!

              I just found a site that carries all kinds of motors and esc's rocket city racing in Orlando.. Very cool, at least I don't have to order overseas and I can get all my questions answer, we'll maybe.
              The 72" hull is big but just because I spect to keep for a long time a might just go with high end electronics so I don't have to worry to much. I was looking at the MHZ hulls but I think I can give CRC a shot and support American hull builders.

                Brian @ Rocket City is a good guy to deal with.

                      I'm in Tampa by the Casino. My backyard is the Hillsborough River. But I want to be able to take the boat on the Corney Campbell 60.

                          What do you guys think of this set up using the Leopard 56110 950kv with the swordfish 300 new design from kbb and 12s per side for long run times? Any idea on that etc up for my hull.

                            keith has built one of these, i was debating doing it. looking forward to how this turns out. i like the 2028s but the 56110 should move it. 12s2p per side.
                            HPR 135 redemption, HPR C5009, modded zelos 36, 32 boats and counting.
                            Flier ESC dealer, pm me for details.

                              I would use cation running 950kv motors on 12s as a sport setup. 10s would be a little more reasonable for regular running then take it from there. I don't think the motors would stand up for very long running 42000 plus rpm regularly. There have been quite a number of failures lately with big boats and high rpm, just wanted to pass the cation along. I am really looking forward to seeing this badboy come together. Just to clarify, your planning a single engine build with 12s2p?
