    Thousands are the reviews of the water intake hole, AQ acknowledges the problem on their web page, look at the height of the hole, motors heat up and burn, LVC not protects the batteries ( 2,9v) and is not programmable, not delivering maximum power.
    The formula is to calculate the length of the rudder on the basis of the length of the boat. It would be ideal to Revolt the rudder 4.5 "- 5"

      Hi,
      The tech note posted on the AQ site is referring to elongating the water intake holes on the rudder. I am not aware of any problem with where the water hole is positioned. There is also a second tech note indicating that the position of the water hole is optimized for racing with RHTs, and constant LHTs can cause overheating.



      If you could post some sources that you are referring to that might help. I'd also be interested in the source of your claims on the ESC not delivering max power-- I use the AQ ESC on my LSH and OPC racing boats and am very impressed with it-- I know my setups are pulling more than 60A and the ESCs have held up great. Programmable LVCs are a features of some ESCs not others, so not sure why you think that is a problem...

      Take care,
      Chief

        Hi,
        Can you be able to vary the timing?
        look at the height of the hole in REVOLT 30100_0301.jpg100_0302.jpg

              Did you actually read what you linked too??? It doesn't support your claim at all.

                Hi Manny,
                Thanks for posting the pictures-- I understand what you are talking about now. I still don't think the water pickup is (too low- EDIT- I meant too high) and I don't see anyone claiming to have cooling problems due to the depth of the intake. Regarding the rudder depth-- I cut mine down as short as I can get and still can turn the boat. I have not heard any Revolt owners state they have turning/handing problems with the stock rudder.

                Note, the boat I have that has the best water flow does not even have a pickup in the water-- it is a brass tube that just sits behind the spray.

                      Hi,BHChieftain

                      The water pickup no is too low, is very high.


                      Rudder longer decreases the torque roll and chine walk
                      If the rudder is to short you won't turn left. This is because as the hull leans left it pulls the (right side mounted) rudder up, maybe completely out of the water

                        Why don't you get a clue.

                        Your arguments are baseless. No problem exists. Create a few more formulas to prove nothing about something else.

                          Sorry-- I meant I did not think the water intake was too high. I'll edit that.

                          However, why do you state the rudder is too short? NOBODY has complained about handling problems with the stock Revolt. Why do you say that there is?

                            Both boats are fine in working but i will suggest revolt 30 than impulsive. It has many cool features and it is reliable.

                              I prefer Revolt, this was my first comment: The hull revolt30 and impulse31 (29 ") are almost equal, the revolt
                              is not separated from the water, is more stable
                              I try revolt30, with electronics impulse31 v2 (5s and 6s) and it's amazing

                                The water pick up hole works fine and does an ample job cooling. The hole is beneath the water surface at rest on the water and when you get op an a plane it sits even lower. I do not see how in the world the hole is up to high. Have you measured it from the water line level to see where it sits. How about when the boat is at full speed? If you can not stand the hole placement in the rudder, buy a different one then. You will get the same results. As for the rudder length, why do you need a bigger rudder? If your boat handles like garbage adjust the strut and trim tabs. My revolt never chine walks and turns left just fine even after I removed the left turn fin and dropped the size of the right turn fin. In fact the longer rudder will produce more drag and slow your boat down and you will gain nothing in performance. There are many members who own this boat and you are the only one I know of complaining about the water pick up and rudder length. When you run your boat what are the motor and esc temps. Can we see some video of your boat chine walking and struggling to turn left. It may help in finding a solution.................
