CF hull question???

[LarrysDrifter]

I think if a guy was to run a Spektrum MR3000 with the dual antennas,it should be fine.One wire gets put in a tube anyway.
Im building the same hull but in FG myself and going to put in 3 Align outrunners on 6s each.I know it will be heavy,but I dont care.It ll probably just end up being a SAW boat anyway.My silver twin cat probably weighs about 8-10lbs.Same as the EKOS it replaced.Weight can be your friend.

Weight can be your friend.

Thats what im saying. My DF 40" mono stayed planted in the water from the weight of a 2215 and 4 5s packs.....

My friend ran those surface recievers in his boat,and got crappy range and it always cut out.Stick to the Mr.3000.Ole Reliable.

My 40" DF ran well with a 2215 on 10s2p as well, but my smiths cat was a different story. It wouldnt pull the sponsons up out of the water and plane out until maybe 35-40mph...or it would pull one side up and dart one way. Thats a little bit smaller hull than yours, and a very aggressive hull design so yours may be ok, I dont know. Alot of times boats handle worse with more weight, contrary to popular belief.

Either way, it may run great in a straight line, I dont know (It more than likely wont corner as well as it would if it were lighter, but if you just want straight speed I imagine you dont care). It would be just as fast if not faster with the motors I linked though.JMHO.
