I have ordered the spektrum radio,
How do I go about mounting the receiver in a full carbon hull?
I installed a fibreglass plate to mount the old school receiver with that antenna... how does 2.4ghz work?Hpr 06 / 09 / 150 /185, Mhz Skater H45 hydro.

You'll need to drill the hull and install an antenna mount. On the HPR, I think those look best on the rear deck, centered left to right, and a little closer to the hatch opening. As mentioned, the receiver will need to be installed close to this location to maximize antenna length outside the hull. I usually try to get 3 or 4 inches outside of the hull. I an effort to keep things neat, I usually plug everything into the receiver first, mount the receiver under the rear deck, then feed my antenna through the mount.Vac-U-Tug Jr (13mph)Comment

Not too sure what an antenna mount is?
if you look here, I did mount a hydro marine antenna but this was the old standard mhz radio...Hpr 06 / 09 / 150 /185, Mhz Skater H45 hydro.

So the 2.4 antenna just slides up the inside?
I also spoke to some European guys, the as26-150 apparently doesn’t work so well with the multipole neu motors... maybe this was the issue back in the day ?
Anyway... thinking the easiest thing to do is go with a trusted setup, sell the neu’s install some lehner 2250’s

Ohhh, I didn’t think of compatibility when I responded in PM. I know MGM controllers totally do not like Neu motors. Mmm, well back to a LMT recommendation of 1950’s or even a smaller 22 series. 2250 fit but really are a lot of motor for this size hull. Well for sport running anyway, if going for 120mph well then they are ‘the deal’Comment

Sourced some 2250/7 for a very good price... hopefully this goes through and I’ll be selling some 1521/1y with about 5 minutes run time...
I did consider getting some different controllers but I don’t really want to cheap out on quality and the brands I’m used to such as schulz castle creations don’t exist anymore....Hpr 06 / 09 / 150 /185, Mhz Skater H45 hydro.

You’ll get very good speeds on a set of M447.
How much do you want for 1521 motors?

Thanks for the picture, I’m going to place a order with hydro marine for some accessories and parts I need... hatch fasteners, hatch tape etc... will also get an antenna from them,
Price wise on the 1521, I’ll have to figure it out..
I have some Andy brown x447 tongue cut which I’m going to try out, brand new still in the packaging..Hpr 06 / 09 / 150 /185, Mhz Skater H45 hydro.
