Anyone try any aftermarket parts on this yet. Wanted to see what kind of prop is the best.

Kinda like to get my hands on one of these...NAMBA20...Caterpillar UL-1, P-Spec OM29, P-Mono DF33, P-Spec JAE, Aussie 33" Hydro-LSH, Sprintcat CC2028 on 8s, PT SS45 Q Hydro, PS295 UL-1 power, OSE Brothers Outlaw QMono 4-sale, Rio 51z CC2028 on 8s -
got one of these myself stock speed is ok while your learning but since i have a apparition with a leopard and T-180 its not much fun thought it handles pretty good.
But it has a large stuffing tube and solid shaft which offers no adjustment or larger motors and the rudder is held on with a thick elastic instead of a break away bolt which i noticed it starting to swing back after a few runs.
so hears the plan ordering parts from kintec next week the hull being 29 inches needs a 540 motor so getting that from fighter cat as well as a turnigy 120 amp esc but want to get hardware first.
3/16 flex cable and stinger drive from the titan as i can get a good deal from someone i know. I have a proper F/E rudder already and adjustable trim tabs going to make a ply transom doubler as the boat doesnt have one as well as a new water cooled motor mount , battery trays to run 4s2p running an sv27 3 blade prop .
Not saying this is a bad boat but its pretty underpowered and you cant make any adjustments except the trim tabs hopefully with these mods it will be a much better F/E boat having the performance to back up the looks.
Hope this helps i will try n post pics of my progress love the boat but if i didnt get it as a present i would have brought a proper fibreglass boat i did eventually anyways or maybe something more adjustable from aquacraft or pro boat but if you dont mind building or modding then this could potentially be a very nice running boat.Comment

with the outrunner this boat comes with on 4s and a good size prop it will run better than most think it will....NAMBA20...Caterpillar UL-1, P-Spec OM29, P-Mono DF33, P-Spec JAE, Aussie 33" Hydro-LSH, Sprintcat CC2028 on 8s, PT SS45 Q Hydro, PS295 UL-1 power, OSE Brothers Outlaw QMono 4-sale, Rio 51z CC2028 on 8sComment

yes more than likely but since i cant leave things stock i cant help myself plus i want the power from a 540 instead of the 380 that was in it plus to be able to adjust the boat properly with a flex drive and way more prop options with the 3/16 flex.
Its more of something i want to do seen a vid on you tube running on 4s with the stock motor its a noticible improvement but i dont think it will pull 40 mph im hoping to reach in that vicinity with the 540 motor and a good prop.
And yer it jus depends what you want from the boat i definately wanna race this boat so id at least need it to pull 40 mph but it to be able to do that all dayComment
