Hey,
What boat hull is that ?
Can you post some pictures of it with the hatch on and a side view ?

[iridebikes247]

good luck if something doesn't work again take a video hopefully the issue is worked out though!

[lenny]

Ok,
Try it like that.
But I think that hull may have a curve or hook in the ride pads,
Like some of the Osprey and Vanquish and Seaducer hulls do.

Not sure what make but it is a deep vee hull with 5 layers of fibe.There are some pics included of what it was like last year.After all the sanding I have done ;I now have no prints.........wish...

Put a straight edge on the bottom (front to back) parallel of the keel. If the straight edge stays touching nice and even you have a tru hull. If it leaves the straight edge then touches again at the transom you have whats called hook. Hook can cause running issues for example, keeping the bow more down than it should.

I have a hull like yours,
And it was my second boat when I was just new to FE.
I could not get it to stop running wet and get up on plane,
And I tried everything to get it to run right.
It would be going straight and trying to get on plane and than just hook and U turn on me out of the blue.

Than I started reading about other boats with the same problems,
Some info from the past on a build and this problem.

way to much trimtabs on that boat!

I have one of the programming cards for this esc;would that calibrate the end points for full throttle?

[kendt]

No that has to be done with the transmitter.Thats if the esc is working correctly. Both my t180's would not work with the programing card at all after about the first 2 runs. After that everything had to be done using the transmitter.
You need to turn you throttle trim to full. Turn on the tx an pull throttle all the way back.Plug in the esc to power and when it beeps a couple times let the throttle back to neutral. It should beep again announcing the range has been set. Then you will need to return your trim to neutral.

Nope. As Kendt said. it must be done with the transmitter
