29" fine design mono, right u turns

[lenny]

Need some please.
OK setup is 29"mono 9"wide 540 feigao 9xl kv1852, esc 120 swordfish, prop 42mm graupner ose, running on two 2s 30c 5000mah poly rc.

Frist run to day tabs & strut at neutral and cells at stern tryed a 40mm prop and it would not get on plane and hooked to right,
tryed a 42mm prop and a 230 prop and still same thing.
I thought that turn fins could be bent, so i took them off, but the same thing is going on, running wet and hooks to right,
Could it be the strut needs to go up too push the stern down ?
Thanks for any input !

Could you take some Pics of the hardware in it's current state. I have a df29 I'll help if I can

Dont even try to get it to handle/turn correctly if its not getting on plane. Are you rrunning the cells in series? Make sure your LVC is not set on "auto", these are know to be problamatic. Set it for the number of cells you are running. It sounds like you just dont have enough power. Modding turn fins and other harware wont help.

HI Keith !
Thanks for info, not shore how to add pictures hear.
But i have them in profile in albums and can add more there.

Try playing with battery placement and center of gravity that was something I never tried. Good luck with it.

how can it be running wet and not getting up on plane at the same time?? To bring the nose down the strut would also need to go down but if you are running wet the last thing you want is to bring the nose down more.

If your batts are all the way back and it wont get on plane you most likely need to scoot them forward a little bit.

Also is your prop in good condition? you'd be surprized at how little a burr or a rough leading edge will affect the props ability to work.

It hooks to the right or prop walks to the right? You are saying you cant get it to plane but are also running wet so i'm confused on what is actually happening.

Have you tried a hand launch to get it up on plane?

Not getting on plane is the ultimate in "running wet" - it is easy to envision but hard to explain why with this setup. You have ample power to get the boat on plane; I agree with Keith, are the packs connected in series....or parallel? If the latter, that is the problem.

A "hand launch" will not help, there is obviously something wrong with the available power. Either low voltage, wrong setting on ESC, etc. A 9XL on 4S should make that boat fly.

29" fine design mono, Will not plane & right u turns

New to this, first time trying to link video.

[lenny]

All pictures are in my profile & albums, do not no how to link it or attach it.

I think it has a hooked buttom like hk vanquish, and strut is at buttom of v.
Moved strut up 1/8" at a time, till it was at 3/8"still will not plane, strut down was better, and trim tabs are no help.
i moved them about 3/8"up to.


Thank for the help with link.

The exit hole for your shaft/tube is awfully close to the bottom of the hull.............the stinger looks like its actually below the bottom of the hull..............Its tryin to ride on the prop only from what i can tell.
