    Cat lovers

    My M1 is finished and of course dumb me then thinks of problems

    The motor, a KB45 is very heavy and my concern is in the turning ability. The motor sits high and central and my perception is the boat is top heavy. Running 1 2sp 4500 and 1 3sp Li-Po, the weight in the sponsons is low. Would adding extra ballast in the sponsons help my perceived problem?

    Thanks.

    I would first test the way it is and than make changes. You can get some lead weights with the sticky back to add if you fit an issue.

      Doug you will have to drive it first. I would just be sure and remember to bring the weights when I tested. I really dont think that weight up high in a wide cat like that will be to bad. A least you have it placed far enough back for cg.
