Modified Mini-V Video

Here is video of the Mini-V I've been working on.

The first Mini-V is un-modified straight out of the box.
The second has a stock motor with 2s lipo, .098 flex cable and Octura x427 prop.
The third (mine) runs a Graupner 480 BB Race motor, .098 flex cable, Octura x430 prop., and is water cooled.

Big difference!

Looking good. How many runs are you getting out of the brushes on the 480bb?

I don't know yet. The footage you see in the video is only the second run since modifications were completed.

BTW thanks, Steve, for the motor and driveline and helpful articles on water cooling at OSE. I also must thank Bob (Albuquerque's FE guru) for his advice and fine videography skills. This is my first FE boat. I'm hooked.
