    Thanks Travis! I'm going to place an order for some new parts and hopefully get it back in the water next weekend.

      Actually I started at like 43mph back in the spring, before I started documenting it in this thread. It's sure a lot of fun!

        Here is the crash that busted the rudder. Kind of hard to see.

          "That was a bad crash".......LOL. Keep it up, 80 isn't far now.

            LOL on the way home he told me "Keith's crash was way cooler though!"

              Here is the crash that started the initial rudder issue.

                Good grief Kaotic, 77 mph is amazing! are you still running 4S? I don't think I've seen a faster Revolt on youtube or any forums, nice job!

                  Thanks, no it's on 6s now. I've got a few more ideas to get this thing to 85mph and hopefully I'll be able to try them out next weekend. I can't wait!

                    Well I've decided to move onto my next project. This setup I know could of broken 80 but with winter coming I want to start a new build project. I'm selling the motor that was in the revolt which is a Neu 1512 2600kv. Check it out on the for sale forum.

                      so, the thread is named "M445 and X642 question..." and is a great thread with videos, pics, etc... love this! question is; what was the best prop for speed and what was the best prop for oval style running?

                      thanks from San Diego, Ca.

                        Well for speed an m645 sharpened balanced back cut and cupped seemed to do very well. I don't heat race. Thanks!
