It likes to turn, that's for sure. Good to see it back out and running

yes a different beast than the HPR for sure

Ryan, I should add that I set LVC to 3.4 on these ESC’s and they kicked off, I brought it in and when home packs were at 20% and 3.75.per cell, just mint!!.

Hi Shawn
Your start up seems real quick, much more so than I have been able to get. What setting did you use, if you can remember?

Sorry to take a bit Peter but I wanted to check ESC’s to be certain. I went with ‘plane fast’ and 32%

I think that is what I set mine at. Will have to check it when I set the esc up in a boat again shortly.

Well I tagged the throttle hard this morning and damn near put it on it’s lid. Should have had the camera on!

So I was playing with props a couple weeks back and ended up with a set of ABC1916’s on which were cut to 47mm. Not sure what speed I had a couple weeks back(55 I think) but today I had 61.8mph. That would be once it aired out and when I discovered the need for a longer rudder. I went thru this on BlownAway. The rudder is ‘tucked’ a little so I’ll try pulling it back and see if that will bring the nose down for the corner. Anyway here is today’s vid:

Nice. It's certainly running smoother, you can hear it.

Yes it is coming along, I thought that those props were 1916’s@47mm but as it turns out they are 1815’s. Mixed up the prop box somewhere. I put a set of full 1915’s on in search of a little more runtime and whoa!!! It ripped and got flighty. Motors were warmer for sure. Not really looking for SAW here so maybe back to 447’s. Next weekend for more testing.
Also, once aired out it did not want to turn without a throttle blip so I relocated the rudder closer to transom. Totally helps but touchy as all get out. And I already had expo and travel tuned down.

1p per side. And right now I’ve got Revo 435 gopacks @4400mah but charged to 4.20 they are really only holding 3700’ish mah.
