Titan Video

[Piranha2]

Well, swapped out a few parts (ESC, packs, prop) from the cat to see what the titan will be like. Not bad, a little faster than the cat but it's probably the 9xl (the cat has an 11xl) that's doing it. She got a little loose in some chop but recovered well. (that's the noise in the video where it sounds like I let off). Best part is her roostertail cools you off when she goes by. ...and no I'm not driving like a dummy. I had a guy fishing to my left, a canoe to my right and a rowboat out aways. My GF also took the controls and loved it!:D

12 DTX's w/ a 45mm CF prop....mild.

...oh, they're 4200's, side by side. Doug, what kind of hydro is your avatar? From all I've seen, that particular type of hydro seems to have the most speed potential!

It is the Vac-U-Pickle made by Vac-U-Boat. The one in my avatar is the 1st prototype. Phil will be going public with them shortly.:)When he's ready I'll post a link here for you guys to check out.

We have five of them set up for LSH. They run well. The next testing we will be doing is with a N2-Sport setup.:D I'm waiting on a couple of motors.

PS Wait till you put 4s 2p in that Titan. :D

Holy crap that thing hulls butt and handles great. Got any pics of the transom?

[Piranha2]

yes, cells phone pics, sorry.

[Piranha2]

.....had to start with a blank canvas for the cat.....

[Tunda]

what kinda cat is that my friend................

[Piranha2]

It's a Skunk Works cat.......I'm still tweaking it but getting closer every time out. Right now I'm running lferguson's Titan and she's a beast on 12 cells.....when I get the Hydra 240 I think I'll try 16-18 cells!

If you run her on 18 pull back to a X438 and watch your runtime. Make sure the cells are restrained good and tape the hatch good. The Titan is a kite at 50 mph.

Good luck and hang on!!!!!

yeah, she was prop-walking last time out........she caught once and whipped right around....good thing Lee beefed up her transom! I think I figured out the Pulso ESC also.....thermal shut-down is at 110F......she gets that hot in less than one minute....that's with the 45mm CF prop.....and in both boats...a 9XL and the 11XL......thanks again for the advice, Doug.

[lferguson]

Your welcome for an AWESOME build. LOL hadn't been on in a while and now I really miss her.

[lferguson]

Justed watched the video again...... Man I want back in! Glad she is doing good for you though. Sent out the 240 the other day. Sorry for forgetting about it. Let me know if you need anything else.

[Piranha2]

Uhhhhh, yeah......thanks Lee, got the 240......now what???? Was that for the Titan or my car????? Seriously, what's up with all the 10awg wire? I have no idea how I'll connect everything. I think D.Smock knows but he might be inclined to let me sweat it out a little for my subtle dis'........hmm, maybe I'll watch what I say more carefully!:D
