    Building my first FE Tunnel Need Advice

    I'm new to FE boats and need some help. I'm starting with a Hydro&Marine F-1 Skater hull. I'm planning on using a motor out of and SV27 and a ESC out of the Ul-1. The lower leg will either be hyper performance 3.5 Angle drive or the bullet drive. Any advice on those would be great. But where I need my biggest help is in the battery department. I'm not sure what Lipo's to run or how many. This will be my first time using lipo's so any advive would be great.

    Humm, since no one has answered your questions, I will see what I can do to help you out. First off, what is the length of your hull? If you're going with the UL1 esc, the max lipo recommended is 4S. Not sure about the 3.5 angle drive or bullet, but I have read and heard alot of good regarding the REK lower. It is made of composite. The ones that you mentioned are nice, but they do cost some pretty coin. You can get the REK lower completely ready to add your motor for around 90 plus 15 for the adapter. Depending on your budget too! You can search here under VS1 and there are a few builds that might help you in regards to the lower leg and possible prop selection. Hope this gives you a start.
