villain ex over powered ?

[skipskip]

hi every one im new to the boat world and need some help i have a villain ex
and i so far have put grouper u joints on it an some octura brass props home made water cooling kit and a custom motor mounts and a pair of kershaw revolver
970 motors and 35T stainless steel pinions and its probably to much power so i was wondering if you think i need turn fins if so how at what angle should i mount them and what happens if you over power a boat thanx for your in put tell me what u think would love to here any ideas

Get rid of the Villain EX ( i did ) and get something that wont fall to bits, the U joints will come apart with that much power on 12 or 14 cells,

Also thoses steerable outdrives are just too week.

If you limit the hard turns you will have less problems with the u-joints. Turn fins will make a difference. Kershaw has some nice stuff. How fast is it will those motors?

ya buddy

i havent ran the boat yet i live in utah every thing is frozen i bought the villain last year because i have a emaxx and thought it would be cool to have a truck and boat with the same power plant that why i bought the villain and i like puting big motors in small things and seeing what happens the 970s peak rpm with 14 volts is 19000 so how fast do u think it will go it has a stock spure and a 35t pinion
thanks for your input

You can run some numbers at the bottom of this page.

19k isnt much rpm, so for speed you will need higher pitched props to make use of all the torque the big motors make.
