    Suggestions for Mono Build

    My Titan hull was damaged as a result of a esc failure. I am looking to build a new boat. I have a fiagao 9xl, cc 120 esc, and 4s lipos. I would like a 30'' to 32'' mono and was thinking of one of these.
    Delta Force 29
    Delta force Cyber Storm 33
    ToysPort Triton
    I have read good things about all three, just can't make up my mind. I would like to use the esc and lipos as they are the most $ part of the build. Need hardware as well. Would like to run mid 40s.
    Thanks for your help

    I raced my Delta Force 33 with a 9XL , Hydra 120 , 4S2P 5000s and a X440.
    It was reasonable fast , handled great on a very windy day.
    Very conservitive set up. Temps in the 90s. I have Fuller hardware. I won all 3 heats so I didn't prop up.

        I recomend the Delta 33". The 29" will work very well too but if you upgrade motors some day the extra inches will be there for you.

            Are you refering to the regular delta 33 or the cyber storm 33 ? I know there are slight differences in lenth and width, which is better as far as speed and handling ?

                with Flyguy and J Solinger also
                I run a Delta 29 with 9XL, Hydra 120, 4S1P 4500mah Lipos and M445
                It handles really well, even in the rough speeds around mid 40"s in race trim.
                I have hit 51.33mph multiple times with a Prather 230 (a little loose at that speed though )
                But the bigger hull will handle better and allow for upgrades in motors

                  If I go with the Delta 33, what motor and hardware should I use? I assume the speedmaster hardware would work well but I'm not sure about the motor. Which one if I spend some $? Which one if I want to save some $ for now and upgrade later? Thanks for the help guys

                      The Delta is good hull and will perform well with either of those motors.
                      But the Triton still looks so much better. ( me, biased ? never )

                          I agree Graham, the triton is better looking, especially yours with the new graphics. But the delta may have a slight edge in performance, I guess we'll see. I'm going to order everything from OSE monday. Delta 33, castle esc, fiagao 8xl, speedmaster hardware, and all the other misc parts i will need. I'll post pics on the boat building forum once I start, I'm sure I'll need some tips on where to mount everything once I get into it.
