Another SV powered TS2

[raptor347]

Just a quick note. I ran my TS2 for the first time today with an SV power system on 4S LiPos. This thing is a blast, great handling, reasonably fast and easy to put together.

I've got a bunch of fast boats, but this may just be the perfect all around play boat. We're going to race them for the first time this weekend, should be a hoot.

I'll post a couple picks tomorrow.

P.S. The BEC in the SV ESC doesn't like really fast high torque servos (kept reseting itself). Turned the servo speed down in the transmitter and it's fine now.

What size prop you running Brian?

Just tested it with a 42x55. It was a quick trip between rain storms. I'm thinking a better choice would be any of the 45mm M series octura props or possibly a P220.

I charged the packs, 3 minute runs took 2700-2800mah out of all three packs consistantly. Looks like 1 mile races to me!

I found that the M445, CF45 props worked well on 4s. Had to lift the motor up about 1/8 in over the settings in the manual to get it to really wind out. The ride pads also help the boat alot.
