      Get a photobucket.com account put your pictures in photobucket then use the image button to post a picture. Or if you have the pictures on your computer but don't want a free photobucket account just click the box that is the 3rd from the end on this post it will take you to where you need to go to get a picture from your computer.

        I'm laughing, I'm putting a 4074 2200kv motor in the blackjack I got today. I tried to go 0-100 putting it on while cooking. I had to take some stuff off cause I did it wrong,rushing.

        I hope the 4074 2200kv motor don't blow up. I would like to find a fast motor to put onto the Zonda cat, when ever I get my money back from Horracing.com. ill probably try/ follow your set-up. GREAT ZONDA!

          The fist thing would be to add the carbon plate for the rudder. It is weak back their and if your going to be fast if will crack in no time. If you fallow in the build you will have a stronger lighter boat.

                I'm steppin up I guess! What's your lipo set up ( what brand, C rating, and mah) you run usually. I find that 45c-90 ain't enough. I will try Gen-Ace 65c-130c 5300mah.

                    I can't stop think about the TP motors in your zonda. Please keep me updated with info on your project. You can do it TWISTED!

                        The tp power is a racing motor. The Leopard motor is a sport motor (in my opinion). If you have the Leopard motor use it. You will not find a Leopard motor that is 2200kv that will stand up to 6s for very long. 4092 your looking at 1700kv max to run 6s. you can go to a larger prop if you go this route. There are some great motors out there that do a great job picking the right motor to match the hull is important. getting the right parts to make that happen is more important. The flex shafts from http://kintecracing.com/Zonda_Cat.html is the first thing you will need to buy before you any other upgrade! Beefing up the hull is next. The rudder plate is easy to install getting the rudder back on is a little trick but if you use a thin stiff wire(rudder rod) to hold and guide the nut into place it isn't to bad to do. you will get good at it after awhile. I use the rod that is used as the rudder link and twist the rod to get the nut to start. I use the 1/2 stainless washer with a small hole so that it is a strong surface on the inside. I hope this helps you. Also I use marine lithium grease to lube the flex shaft. Its the best. Anyone using grease needs to look up what makes grease thick is based on the types the wax and soaps tho get it thick. I my be new to rc boating but not in what and how things work.

                              Kintec is sold out. I dont understand. 2 days ago they were waiting on esc g or ARTR version and now they're sold out.
                              I hate getting angry. Hor racing still got my money and have'nt responded to any of mt email. Kintec dont even got a working number. It seems like business going down everywhere . How can one sell by practicing bad business? Money's just passing you by!
