Awesome I'm excited to get it on the lake! Wonder what it will do on 5 cells? :)

Spend most of its time upside down if it doesn't go up in smoke first

I thought you could run the factory motor on 5s if you had a speed control that would handle it

Oh I missed you had the 120eac. Yeah you could try it, but the motor may or may not last long. The biggest problem is the ul1 at anything over 50 is just unstable. It will flip a lot. It's just not designed to go faster than that. Many have tried, but mostly the consensus is, out of control.

Looks fast man, unfortunately over 50 with these boats, it's just like your vid, lots of flips. It's not about setup at that point, it's about the hull nit designed for the speeds
