    AB marine terminator cat 38 experiences/opinions

    i have a chance to buy this hull at a decent price...anyone have any gripes or handling issues or anything on this hull..i have an neu 1530 1100kv (i think) ready to drop in it which i think would get me some crazy oval performance i am hoping...the vids i have seen of some other hulls in AB's line look to perform real well.......what to do??? i believe they are well made from what i have read but they are from the other side of the world so the aussies may know a lot more about them

      Will you be racing the hull, and if so which class? I don't know how these boats handle (like you I'd like to know) but a 38" boat might be at a slight disadvantage racing against T-class hulls from 42-45" long. An 1100 Kv motor on 10S is really a pretty hot setup for oval, but on 6S or 8S it should be great!

          jay,

          i am just a pretend racer with an invisible oval course...i race against myself...but yes i planned on running 8s2p and somewhere in the x455 range...i think the hull would be good for this no? i mean its over 15 inches wide or something like that..i just like going fast by myself and posting vids once in a while..i will leave the racing to the skilled guys

          thanks jay

              That motor should pull that prop okay on 8S but check it carefully anyway. With the cat well trimmed you should be in the 60s.

                  Hi, Tony from AB Marine is one of our clubbies and makes these boats, drop him a line or maybe a pm. Mostly his boats run well and fast when setup and dialed in. BTW made in New Zealand!
