    Did you build this new or buy it used. If it was a new build try giving Steve a call at Renegade. I looked for his number but don't know if he is even still in business. If you bought the kit from him his number should be on the papers. I had some questions building mine and he was a great help. My measurements won't help you much I have only run mine a couple times and am far from having it dialed in. Alot of guys have these and maybe someone will chime in with their settings. I can post my cg and prop size in the morning if it helps at all.

          Alright here are some quick measurements from mine, as I said I have not had a chance to dial it in yet but these are my starting points. CG is around the middle of the turn fin, the bottom of the strut is about 9-10mm from the bottom of the tub (hull). The strut has a slight 1-2 degree negative angle. The battery is the recommended one, Thunder Power, Pro LiteV2, 1350mHa, 3s. The motor is the same as you have. As far as the prop, I take my props off when storing my boats but was running the recommended one I believe it was a purplish plastic one. The markings are worn off mine. If you need any other help let me know and I'll help you as much as I can. From the little I had a chance to run it I sure had alot of fun with it (so far).
