          why not just use the 4200s you purchased. I may be wrong, but I would bet if he put a....... 640 on it,and let the motor spin a bit It would be faster then it is in the video.

            I have used a X440 3 blade and 14 Ib3800 cells sence I got mine when they came out. It does 37-40 on the GPS.....Very fun and Fast for the money.

            I love the SV's!

              Darin Jordan uses a X646 on his sv and I think he was hitting 42mph, on 12 cells. I also think he was running 5 laps on a 1/8 mile course.

                I was actually using 4S1P Lipos... The rest is correct... though, that's not the prop I'm running now (for P-Mono...)... I've gone a tad bigger... :D

                The motor is full of torque... I don't think it's very efficient at too high a voltage, but it'll tug a decent prop... BUT... I wouldn't run that big a prop if I were driving it like the guy in the video... WAY too much on and off and wet running... The motor and ESC would get pretty warm under those conditions...

                My Spec SV27 GPS'd at 38mph with decent 12-cell batteries and an ABC 42x55 prop... If you are only getting 38-39 then I don't really think that running the weight of the two extra cells is worth the trouble... You'd be money ahead to just buy a nice set of Lipos... you don't even need the high-C ones... Mine runs just fine off a pair of 3300mah 20C Poly RC packs... for heat racing anyhow... though I've been running my 4350mah packs lately, just for the extra weight to help the handling...

                        We should have some fun videos to watch after this week is over... The Nationals start getting set up tomorrow... and full-tilt racing begins on Thursday...

                        I'll be racing an SV27 hull in one level of setup or another in the following classes:

                        Spec SV27
                        N2-Offshore
                        P-Mono
                        P-Offshore

                        I'll let you know how we do!
