    what hull should i choose for the following set up

    Ok guys, ive got the itch for a winter build and fancy something for the following hardware which ive had lying around for a while, i have a load of 3s packs so 6s1p is what i am looking for, already built a twin 32" rivercat and single daytona (genesis) as well as a big mono, i want to build a single as twins get too expensive with sport running in mind, and was thinking of the following, 29" sprintcat, 41" fantasm, pursuit, overpowered 26" rocket,

    T180
    FC 3/16 strut (with the keg)
    M445 prop

    Looks like you got at least one of everything except a Hydro, build a mid sized Hydro like a Popeye or a Insane.

              Think I am gonnna take the plunge with a popeye, anyone suggest a good setup for sport running around 50mph on 6s1p? Was thinking of a 3674 1400kv and have a spare t120?

                More Kv than needed for 50 mph, and potentially more amp draw than the T120 can handle. A kV around 1200 would work much better in a hull that size, allowing a larger prop but keeping amps in check. I run a 1250 Kv motor in my 6SQ Sport Hydro and GPS close to 70 in race water.

                  Thanks fluid I've got a spare m445 which I'd like to utilise but don't want to burn up an esc if you don't think it's up to the job, if I need a larger esc I guess I might as well go up to a 4074?

                    If you want 50 mph with an m445 the a Kv of ~1250 would work given good quality cells and setup. While on 6S that speed should be attainable with under 120 amps, I think you'd be happier with a 180 amp ESC and a 40mm motor.
