    boat wants to roll over under power

    tried my new mono hull batboat today,

    wickedly fast, terribly unstable and as soon as you put more power on it just rolls over.

    its so bad i managed a full barrel roll and ripped the canopy off.

    do i need trim tabs or is it a prop issue?

    i think its because i have too much prop in the water.

    i tried running her with the lipos on one side but it made next to no difference!

    Prop issue I think. What size hull and which prop? Motor and batteries?

      It's a graupner b24, huge turnigy 2000kv in runner which is far too big fOr the boat. It's on 4s and has an octura 435 3 bladed prop on home made stern drive.

      The shaft of the prop sits in line with the bottom of the boat if that helps.
