    Got this thing in the water today and she ran good. Had some chop and a good bit on wind, but she handled it well. Gps said 53.8 which isn't that fast for a twin, but I was using CF40 props and temps where good, 110F on the motors after a 2.5m run esc was barely warm so I didn't even bother shooting the temps on it. Batts where 6000mah 25-50c nano-techs. Next test wil be with CF45s (big jump), I will only do a few passes then check the temps. Other than that I really enjoy this boat. Not bad for $19.99 motors...

      I finally got a few runs w/ mine this past weekend on 4S. We are starting a 4S twin division at our club so my plan is to run this set up for now. I need to get it handling a bit better, its got some strange characteristics, apparently SAW set ups w/ cog etc is much different than oval running But Ill get her dialed better than she is.

      Heres a vid of the first run I think it was....

        Yea I had the same problem. I almost rolled it going slow, so I turned the steering gain down to, and then even with the steering gain turned to 75% I did roll it lol. I may have to take it down further to say 50% but she looked so good, and those twin outrunners sounded awesome. I do have a small leak somewhere though. I will need to check that, I think it is coming from the right side sponson pickup. I had to epoxy that one in and it maybe leaking from the base.

        GREAT vid and you had some good water conditions as well. What motors again? Nice Paint!
