    My apparition is here! Now what?

    Just got it in and it looks great! I might take it out for a float test today. Anything I need to do before I run it for the first time? Just want to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. Thanks!

                Yea, working on a rescue boat right now. My setup right now is stock prop/motor, 2 Turnigy 3s 4000mah 45-90c batteries, and Turnigy 180 esc. I will try to get some pics up soon but it is nothing special right now.

                  Ok, that stock motor is gonna roast fast if your running those batts in series?? i expect you are? Thats a great esc but would be a shame to burn it up over that less than quality motor. Get yourself a metal prop while your at it, m440 is a perfect start IMO.

                    I want to run them in series later on with a better motor but I am going to start out with 3s and the stock motor for now so I can get a feel for the boat.
