          I could do it with in a few weeks with mine on N2 power but really prefer to run the brushless 05 power. That will be fun a CC 5800 Mamba!

            The guy to talk to about making an OM21 do amazing things, aside from the designer and developer himself (Hi Randy! :) ) would be Bill Oxidean... That guy has pushed these boats to places I don't think Randy EVER imagined them going!!

            Back in the Brushed days, these were pretty hard to be for N1-Mono (27T Brushed on 6-cell NiMH)...

            I don't think they like big props, so I'd stick with 2S, and go with something that has some RPMs... Randy has the right idea... the CC5800 Mamba would push this boat probably beyond it's design limits, but would certainly be FUN!! :)

            These boats also handle a little rough water better than the average 21"-ish sized hull... Definitely an "Offshore" look and feel.

              Well put. I was going to run the cut down lowered deck that I races in the 6-cell NiMH Open motor class and won all most everything at one time or another. I had so much fun with this boat in those days. On small pond or cove it is a blast.

I got these when they were popular and then boom bl came alive and these are in excellent shape. I have a com ( cobra ) cutter, nice. Let me know which motors would be would be best in oval curcuit, thanks! BTW- would a 2550 Leo from offshore on 3S fit the bill?
                  Are you thinking of racing the Oval Master? The only class that I would race it in would be N1 Mono. There are only two power options for N1. The options would be a 27t brushed motor or a 17.5t 05 brushless motor. The battery would be 2s. Even for sport running the biggest battery should be a 2s. You could either run a brushed or brushless 05 motor.

                            The boat does love a small 435/3 it can be cut down to fit in the motors operating power band. Big props make the boat flop all over the place. Back when I was Oval and SAW racing it I built my own 432/3 and 632/3 I won a lot of championships this way. Now I just want to have fun at the local pond and it is ware it was developed at Heather Farms the local duck poop pond.

                              5700 yes and the three blade small is key. A .150 cable to a 3/16 stub cut down to a 1/8 will be the longest lasting flex shaft setup.

                                Okay, so what is a 17.5 motor?...you've lost me and I thought I knew them all. Do you run it with a 2S pack?
