    UL-1 Upgrade Help

    Hi Guys

    I have a couple of UL-1 in stock and I would like to upgrade with Neu motor and ETTI 150 ESC for 4S application, I would love to know what you guys recomend. As I would like to use it as one of our race boats.

    I have allready sorted out the sponsons and Turn fin area.

    Almost 50% of the members here would recommend a Neu 1515 1y 2200kv, Hydra120, and 4s2p.

    Try running an x442-x447.

    49-50mph Race hydro

      That combo will burn up the Hydra 120. Today I burnt up my Hydra 120 switching from the smaller m440 to larger m445 using same combo. So just guessing I would use ether the Etti or the Hydra 240.

        I dont see how a 442 would, Im using 5s on an m447 and my hydro 120 keeps low temps.

        Id maybe think about running easy on an x445 and up..

        then yea probably...

        Iv had no problems with mine.

        Hey detox what neu motor was in your UL-1??

              UL-1 was hauling ace using the m445, but the smaller m440 was esier on HYDRA 120 esc.

              Your 1.5y 1500kv motor with 5s lipo power pulls less amps I am sure.


              Here's my setup in picture

                  The stock setup using GR L40 x 57/3 clocked 50.2mph. I never GPS'd this setup, but I am sure it was knocking on 60mph. After doing the sponson mod and adding lead weight to outer lefthand sponson UL-1 is more stable crossing wakes.
