Twin 6s cat

[RunningBeer]

Gidday from Western Australia Skippers, I have two Lehner 1184Kv 2250 motors I would like to put in a cat twin 6s. I would welcome any recommendations you have for a hull. This is a sport boat only and i would prefer a hull that can turn well. Not straight speed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

the mhz mystic 114 is perfect for you motors but from Germany to down under cost a fortune ,DY motor shop has also a very good hull and good looks

Thanks Koen. I like the look of the fighter cat but I think i see seeing two different lengths? Is there about one at 850mm and one about 1040? Does anyone out there know where there is a carbon fibre hull for sale"

[koen]

i forgot offshoreelectrics they sell a lot of very good hulls also a fighter cat

Fighter cat is long gone as a supplier but Steve carries the Cheetah which started at Fightercat. Those motors would be overkill on a Cheetah but propped right would likely have a great runtime on 6s.

PS: look into RC Boat Bitz down under

The TFL Cheetah is an excellent turning hull, but as Srislash mentioned, the 2250's will be overkill. While I love the looks of the MHZ114 Mystic hull, it's a SAW hull and handles terribly when doing anything other than straight passes, or long sweeping turns once on plane. The Delta Force Explorer is a better turning cat hull, but at 36" long, still a little small for 2250 motors.

You could also reach out to Wayne at Entrophy Australia. He may know of something local. The 2250 motors that you have would power a decent size gas boat hull (40-48”+) and there is a decent gas community down there and a couple guys doing hulls. Something like a Styker or R42 would be real good.

Promise Hobby on Fleabay has nice 41" cats. Turns great, single or twin

Hello!
Don't know if this is a bit off topic but i think it's related to the original question and can be helpful to see the relation about hull and maneuverability.
How are the HPR hulls compared to MHZ, cheetah or delta force in maneuverability?

thanks.

i have a mhz 114 and a 84 both with a single motor and they turning very well the turning radius is a bit wider ,i have also a Aeromarine Sprint cat and it turns on a dime but less speed then the mhz cats
the HPR is about the same as a mhz and the cheetah is a bit like the sprint cat ,but as with any hull how it handle's is a matter of setup and a lot of fiddling and testing
