    Best "fun" hull?

    Ok guys looking at options for my next build, I want a fun and fast setup to use on small lakes That I can chuck in a backpack, I have plenty of 3s packs (5000mah and 2200mah) thoughts?

    Pursuit, if Steve has any in stock. Only thing it needs is an aluminum cooling jacket (probably ok for 3s) and a prop with a little more bite. Great handling boat, turns on a dime!!

          If you're looking for something different Matt, the MHZ gecko is a lot of fun and a lot more stable than you would ever expect. It's a bit of a novelty, but I guess they all are to some extent.

                You could get a bare Pursuit and build it as you see fit. I built one that I got from Fightercat under a different name for P Spec offshore. This winter a P mono I think. Easy driver. I AM totally biased though.

                The Delta26 might be sweet on 3s. We have a 29 we run on 4s. Super stable.

                    Mini Envoy if you are talking about a standard size school type rucksacks rather than one of the big hiking or military bergen style backpacks, and you will still probably have the drawstrings around the stinger/rudder post with the prop and rudder sticking out of the top covered by the flap.
