    swiming in the river.....

    well today i fanally got my micro scat cat running great except for one problem, in corners the boat seems to lean to one side depending on which way i am turning. this resulted in the boat flipping. and before everyone says that i should have brought rescue gear i did i brought a fishing rod with a tennis ball on the end, but the line broke when i casted out it was an old rod that i wasnt using anymore, but anyway, is their something that i am doing wrong that would cause the boat to lean in the corners? i really dont want to have to go skinny dipping in the water again


    Thanks,
    James

    sounds like it's top heavy. Any way to lower the mass inside the boat?

      i might be able to move the battery around but its on the center of the tunnel in front of the motor, do you think thats too high?

        I would put it in the left sponson. This also helps to counteract torque.
