building cyberstorm 33?

[madmikepags]

I use a lot of different props depending on conditions, but for offshore it's usually a prather s235 for sprint I've used a s240,s245 x450/2 x450/3 x452/2 all props are modded, always tongue reduction and usually with a good amount of cup. The motor is a NEU 1521/1.5D and a Castle 240 speedo. My boat is very fast (too fast) sometimes it bow steers and does funny stuff at speeds over 65, but at 60 its so rock solid. I might be switching to a Titan 40 for next season, after seeing how well Dave Newlands and Doug Petersons boats run, and My Daughter runs a Titan 40 and it runs so well.

What batt setup? Just picking your brain because you obviously have a great setup............

4s2p I would guess.Im gonna start with a 447/3 and prop up according to heat

I was referring to Madmikpags' setup.......curious what he's running to get the level of performance he does.
My Cyberstorm is currently running a Neu 1521/1Y on 6s1p.

Cool build by the way Driftah

sorry didn't mean to hijack ur thread. Like I said I use different props for different conditions, but what I've used most over the past 3 years is the prather 240 but the last 2 races or so I've used a pitched up x450/2 which seems to be working really well, not as much top speed but makes the boat more predictable.

I dig the green hull driftah, looks sharp.

Lenny, what is the quality of the finish like on that hull??

Hi,
I am using the x447/3 on my Pursuit with a leopard 4074 1800kv on 4s1p and 5s1p,
Top speed is 48mph on 5s1p and runs pretty stable.
But I am kicking around moving the setup for the cells,
My cg is at 9.5 with out the cell in place.
