    Well, I have time before I start the build so I've got time to figure it all out.

    142.915 mph wow that's fast, man you're tempting me to want to truly send it and see how fast I can send a boat this big. I know 1/5 scale cars are very heavy and that isn't an easy task whoever owns it hats off to them.

      There are some very fast large electric RC boats in the Virgin Islands running in the mid and high 70s "I'm unnecessarily uncompetitive".

            Kv is 400 which is perfect for a 10 to 12 cell cruiser . No plans yet but do have a 57 Apachie powered by a 11 turn Lehner 3080 which I might throw in to try it .

                  Hi Ray

                  The red one is a Neu 2230 1Y on 10 cells and the Orange is a Lehner 3080/7 on 10 cells also ....The Orange boat is faster

                    I like the paint scheme, it's really nice.

                            This boat is amazing, the build quality is simply wow and so is the colour scheme. I'm currently working with a friend to create the graphic vinyl. I'll probably pick up the miscellaneous parts such as cooling lines and whatnot, but nothing expensive.

                                I've decided to bite the bullet and save up for the lehner 30100.
