    prince 25 hopping

    I have a prince 25 running 7xl w t180 on 4s,and it turns awful it hops like mad in corners almost enough to make it flip aroundon itself any ideas? I even tried ading trim tabs to help it a bit but stayed the same.....

    This the one I sold ya?

    The only time Ive ever had issue is with to tight of turns. Outside of that she was glued on rails!

    Maybe the balance point is off?

      I have moved cog all over the place makes no difference,maybe I am just wanting too sharp a turn at speed like my df29 does.or there is too much weight too high up like a 7xl with 4s and a larger esc than needed hmmm maybe a ul1 package would work better,it is a missile now tho jeepers.

        What KV is the 7XL? I run a PB 1500kv motor, Turnigy 60A ESC, and a single 5000mah LiPo in the middle right in front of the motor, with a X445 prop. Here is how she moves.

          kv is 2380 area I think,I am running a grim 42x55 and a x642 and this boat was in a large pond right beside 90km/h traffic just pulling away from the cars by almost double it seemed,I gotta gps it before making things smaller electronics lol.maybe I am just trying to turn with too much speed.nice vid tho..... I may go with a ul1 setup after all for driveability and amp draw

            I went down in KV and up in prop because when I was running a 3656, 2600kv motor on 4S and the boat ran like crap. I was running a x440 and even went down to an X438 and still porpoised like crazy, and turning was impossible. I would try a x440 or X438 with your setup and see if that helps.
