New Hull from HK

[ray schrauwen]

Read closely, description says motor mount for 36mm motor, not 40mm.

They also changed the rudder from a dual intake rudder to a less expensive single and take another feed from the transom.

I don't know yet. If I ran 5s I think I could get by with a seaking 180 or a swordfish 200, but I know I am going to want to run 6s every once and a while. If I ran mostly 6s I would get a swordfish 240. Not sure what I want to do. I don't want to rely on the seaking 180 or sf200 for 6s all the time, but the jump to the HV is pretty big in price.

Ran my T-180 on 6s more than i did on 5s with no issue's at all.

He'll only need a 40mm Tail ring...The mount will accommodate a 4082 in lenth and as well as motor's screw mount.

Got the email this morning, looks good. Thinking about pulling the trigger on this thing. I want to use a 4082 1450kv on 5s & 6s. Anyone think that motor in this hull will work? Hoping I can get buy with 5s1p or 6s1p, goal is mid 40mph.

Here is one with a 5692 1340kv on 6s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-dnf...layer_embedded

I run my T180's on 6s with the bec............one with a Neu1527 and one with the 1717.................never one problem. Probably have 50 runs on the Neu setup and 20 on the 1717............i may be one of the "lucky" ones, but i dont see a problem doing it personally.

To each his own..........

That's why God made Zip-ties lol...

Only the support ring is different and I think I have a extra 40mm laying around so it won't be an issue.


* Interesting on the T-180's. I just never was a fan of pushing the esc's to thier voltage limits though. Would save A LOT of money though. I may run the T-180 on 5s mostlt and throw in 6s for some speed runs. Would be nice to save that extra cash and not need a HV esc. Thank's for all the advice.

[ray schrauwen]

Nope, Canada....

Shouldn't be much in a 4x6 padded envelope... Let me know...

I have one of the 41" Osprey hulls which is the same hull, I was also looking at putting a Leopard 4082 1500kv on 6s. Would i get away with a T 180 esc or a Swordfish 200, Which would be the best choice between these 2 esc. Also what props would work well on this set up. Thanks Martin.
