? If I take the outer term tabs off and move them to the inner because I really only care about speed would that help. Or do I have to have all four.

I'll vid my pond tomorrow morning and post it.
Btw the pond I'm running in is huge, so I have to hit it at around 7am to get optimal conditions.Comment

I've got my inners set about 2 degrees down from 90. Strut is set at 0 running a 442 with the batts an inch off the rear. Just be careful. At that configuration, blow overs come easy. Be sure to tape up for speed runs or risk your vitals taking a bathComment

Agreed. I would maybe run a 215 with that Leo. I'm running a 220 on a 1600 Leo and am having good results.Comment

Zack,
Your current set up is a much faster set up than how that boat comes stock. Trouble shoot 1 thing at a time till you figure out what needs adjustment or if something is defective. That setup is fast even if I doesn't break 70.
For stability once you get her running you will want that other pair of tabs and batts forward. I run my boat with a couple of guys that have Spartans that are fast ranging 50's to 60's. All of them have the extra tabs, 5.5mm bullets for batts and 6mm for the motor. None of them chime walk at wot. When you get your set up working properly your boat will run faster than those Spartans, you have a bigger and higher kv motor then what they are running.
I did just think of something tho. If I remember correctly you reinforced your hull??? If so how much weight did you add to the hull?
Having too much weight with a big prop could keep a motor from getting its full rpm. Just a thoughtComment

Ya I did add a sheet of carbon fiber I'm the rear transom. I started to do the whole hull boat speed till I got the boat right. Have everything to do the whole hull. Started it But it was not looking good so I was going to get some one to help meComment
