    Thanks lenny, I was happy to find the cooling system blockage. While I was running the boat I felt the the turning was not quite solid. This is why I want to make a more rigid mount for the turn fin. I know it's not thebest video, but I didn't have anyone there to record for me. This is why I had to use a mini tripod that's a little to close to the ground.

    Anyway, I am happy with the results of the run. More video footage to come.

      Hear an idea for you,
      And this is how I do just about all my video's.
      I just aim it like a side are gun and move my tx where the boat is going,
      It gets easier the more you do it.

      And this was with the old camera I used.

          Do you have an air dam installed? That might help to stabilize the boat.
          i will get some pics up soon i am running an air damn but i feel my boat isnt tuned enough to benifit from it yet ,i tried the 7/8 strut setting on a s/b 40/57/3 blade boat just didnt like it at all i went back to the 1 1/4 strut height and my 642 prop and broke my wire drive there goes another prop

            Thanks, the lake is a cool spot to run, not a lot of traffic.
            The prop in that video is stock, the next video will have a GR 40X52 on her.
            I can't for the life of me figure out the 40X57. Can't get it right.

              What are you running for electronics, stock? What size batteries are you running and where do you have the installed?

                    Sounds like a beast, could you post some pic's of the UL-1 before to do the trade? Thanks.
