    Matrix Ultimate set-up problems?

    Hi all just in the process of setting up a Climate boat works Matrix ultimate outrigger on 4s.The hull and hardware weight 19 0z motor is a Feigo 7XL Hydra 120 amp esc Turnigy 4s 5000 mah 50c lipo 1 degree down thrust on strut. The center line off strut 3/4'' from bottom off tub props used x637 x437/3 x438 .Rigger has great accelaration and excellent top speed but the rigger bounces down the straight aways at full speed all my testing is done on perfectly flat water thats why i feel the rigger bouncing down the straights is an issue as in most race conditions there are waves any suggestions would be welcome on dealing with the bouncing issue.Regards Andris Golts.

    Andris, It has been awhile since I have run mine. I used a 7xl and a 440/3 prop. In my thoughts you need to make more of a positive angle of attack on the strut to keep the back up. Also it has been benificial for me to shorten the rudder in some instances to reduce the drag and free up the rear. I will measure mine later if you want.
