World's fastest UL-1 on 8S

[Brushless55]

these things are nuts un 5s, and I bet if you could keep them on the water they will run a full race

Will the stock motor take 5s ok & what size esc would you need to go to on 5s. Been looking at getting a UL1. Martin.

,anyone else running 4s parallell??

I think most of us sport boaters all run 4S2P in the UL1. I have never had any issues with the hull coming up on plane. It just pops right up when you hit the throttle. I dont know what the rules are for the racers that limit weight/power so one of them would have to chime in.

the stock esc and motor will take 5s..
only thing you need to do is run an external bec or battery pack for the receiver

How good (or bad ) is the UL1 as a rtr boat. Looked at them a number of times & was tempted. Martin.

OK I am going to try and run my UL-1 on 2/3S 5400 30c will there be any problems ???????

I assume thats 2 x 3s in series so 6s, Youll burn the esc.

have you tried setting up the hydro good on 4s first?
you should see low 50's on this first
second running 6s will cook the esc, but 5s is doable with a bec running a smaller prop...

Better yet, it'd be nice to see someone come up with a way to keep the smoke IN. Heck, we put a man on the moon @ forty years ago !
