Here is how i did mine in my last SV

Nice layout, what motor is that a 12L?!?

[z400]

That was an 8XL

That boat went 63.8mph on a S&B x642.
The guy i sold it to got another 4mph out of it after he propped it down.
I cant remember what prop he moved down to.

Jeez that's quick. Running 4s or what?!? I couldn't imagine tryin to keep a SV on the water at that speed. I run ul power on my SV and it's fast enough for me. Nice and stable. Sadly stable and speed don't go hand and hand so it's def not the fastest SV out their, but it's faster than stock and I don't have to throw the rescue boat in the water every minute so it works for me.

Yeah he ran it on 4s


I was running it on 18 4200 nimh cells and it was an absolute blast.
Plenty of videos of it on Youtube.



And as far as rescuing.. I never once had to retrieve my boat with anything other then my hand next to the shore line.
never once had a blow over or a roll.

Removing the box is way better, I got my replacment wood from kintec as well. Im sick of buying wood from home depot so I just bought it from Jan, but you could easily make it if you wanted to. Dump the stock radio for a Tactic 2.4ghz and seal the antenna hole, also get the upgraded cowl latch and foam for $8.50 from Kintec as well. Using just the new hatch latch and foam and without taping my hatch I flipped my boat and was upside down for about 5ms. I thought it would be flooded, but their was only a few drops of water inside. It's not the best to run without taping, but I have several times.

Nice setup, but whats holding your ESC down?

Theirs a small piece of velcro on the back of the esc and its stuck to the side of the servo mount.
