    Tuning a cat for different water conditions help

    I'll keep this brief. Running my cat in:

    Rough water = try not to flip it
    Med 1-2" chop = runs awesome. Smooth, fast, good run time, low heat
    Light chop to glass = wah wah wah, slower, less run time, more heat


    So basically, I want to know, do you guys have any tricks to running in different conditions? And what can I do to lower temps on glass?


    Set up:
    Mean machine
    Castle 2200
    5s2p
    T-180
    X642 detounged
    Strut 3/16 up
    Cog 9" or about 30%


    I've been thermaling in the heat lately.
    Thanks

    For flat water try moving the CG back at least 1/4". Raise the strut 1/8" and angle it up at the prop end a couple degrees. Test and raise it another 1/16" etc. Raise it too far and the prop will blow out. Set up correctly the MM will run the fastest on smooth water.

        So I moved my packs back a half inch and whoa what a difference!
        I haven't even done the strut yet.
