why does my boat pull

[nate]

ok when running a left hand prop, at full throttle the boat PULLS HARD to the right? so when using a right hand prop , the boat want s to go HARD to the left x/440 prop??? after about 30 feet it will spin out if you dont let off the throttle, any ideals?? running a cf 45 right hand prop and 7 cell s 8.4 electrifly 3600 nimh batts?

Trim tabs..One may be set abit to far down than the other ?

well after moving things around the boat got faster, but still wanted to TURN?? so i looked at the steering servo and the steering arm was at 1 oclock and not 3 oclock?? but changed that and the boat is running great:)) thks for all of your alls help:) now back to my poor blackjack 26

Do you have pics of the new configuration?

[jlr3rd1]

yes here are some pic.s:) running the 6 cell dtx 3800 the boat runs fine, when running the 7 cell 3600 s at top end the boat gets chopie and lose ???

[domwilson]

Can't see the pics. Might be able to help with that too.

sorry will try again?

Is that strut flat? It still looks angled down. Also adjust the angle of the rudder. Make sure the bottom is pointed straight down. Where are your batteries placed? Try moving them forward 1/2" forward of stock. What prop is that?

[jlr3rd1]

ok will make changes , and headed back to pond:)

Especially post #7. Darin knows what he's talking about.

Get some video. Would love to see how it runs now.

In one photo, your turn fin also looks like it's got a permanent right turn bent into it, but it may just be the camera angle.

Make sure the turn fin is parallel with the boat's fore/aft centerline when looking at it square on from the rear.
