      I was able to only fit 4000mah packs in mine. I could fit two 2s 5000mah packs on top of each other though.

        Thanks for the reinforcement guys! I thought the anti-HK army was going to overun my position. My twin App looks like the one by ice_spy's left foot. Seem like we are building an Appaition army(Navy?). May the force be with you. A few pics of my Apparition fleet are below.

        And that Segad utube video is awesome. Much better hull than my Venom Segad. I'm running a single 5692 1340KV on 8S2P & Castle ICE 200HV-2, but will probably go with the 1090KV on 10S2P. If it dosen't hit 100MPH I might try twin 1090s on 10S1P X 2 - I already have all the hardware & electronics to do it. It would require chopping the oversize gasser canopy down & removing other stuff to lower air drag. But, if I could get 110-120MPH out of it it would be a real contender in NAMBA SAWs T Offshore class record. Just kinda scary to risk that much money, but nobody said racing is cheap. As an ex-professional diver at least I can recover the pieces. JIM

            I'm running the new Castle ICE HV-2 ESC in the Segad. Will run 2 Castles if I put twin motors in it. The twin Apparition will run two 200A (WTF?) HK Birdies. Overkill to the max. JIM

              I am going for the FC 240 TWIN esc, postage to the UK is the killer though :-(

                I have 2x 200amp Himodel 4-8s escs in mine. Not intended for marine use but I converted them and made some water cooling. Never had any probs so far.
