    Leopard 5692 - Size is a relative thing

    When I got this motor, I thought it was pretty big. I guess everything is relative.

      Boats don't win races, drivers do.

            I run that same setup. Totally hauls the mail. Mines in a SprintCat and its even on 1P! Didnt need to double the packs. Great choice! Post some vid when shes burning up the pond.

                  Hey Pat! How the heck you doing? Havent spoken with you in awhile. I got a schulze 32.140 off ebay last year. An early version. But built like a tank! And I'm using 2006 software! Yeah well. I'm on the low budget right now. I have to guess to speeds. On a X450 cut down to 48mm I'm going to guess mid 50's. GPS'd at 62 but I'm going to take that to the bank? I want to bump up to 9S but not untill I can get a 40.160 for cheap. Like thats going to happen anytime soon!

                    Hey John, I'm great...good to hear from you too. It has been a while. Sounds like your 8s setup is going well?
                    Im building a 32 deltaforce cyberstorm. 1515 1y, and 1518 1y, to run whichever motor performs the best!!
                    I should have it painted and in the water in 2 weeks. Looking to build either a big 8s leopard setup, OR a 1717 6s setup. Torn between building a whiplash sport 40 for the 1717/6s or a delta force copy 39" mono on 8s/leopard...decisions decisions.
                    Do you ever make it down this way to run? or do you run in vancouver/pdx? if so, we should meet up to get some boats on the water.
