    I'd love to have pictures of any "defects" so I can address this with the vendor.

    If you have any issues with the steering system getting cought up, let me know and we'll send you out a new set of steering plungers.

    I appreciate all the feedback I can get. It helps us stay on our toes and continue to better our products. :)

            Well I got to maiden her today. Lots of fun. Made me realize how much I miss boating. Here are a few snaps. I wish I knew someone I trust to drive while I took pictures of her running. Id love to get some action shots with spray & high speed shutter mode. I have some video from the drone & on shore I haven't looked at yet.

            I think with a simple prop change I could get a few more mph.

              Absolutely beautiful pictures!! I went from 58 to 63mph with just a sharpen and balance job on the stock props. It's amazing what prepared props can do.

              Can't wait to see what you got on video.


              By the way, do you mind if I steal 1 of your pictures to use it as the cover photo on my Facebook page?

                    Jpraimi, please post in my mod thread when you swap props. Or even sharpen yours.

                        On my cleaning and inspection before I put her away till next time. I found alot of grease had come out of both the outdrives. It appears there is a small gap between the end of the firber glass wall (transom) & the outdrive where they meet. i dont know how to remedy this other than to use a little epoxy to fill the void? Or loosen the outdrive bolts and see if it will slide up a tich.

                          First time I see that. I'd carefully put a little bit of clear silicone over that gap.

                          I'll reach out to the vendor to tighten up inspection. Thanks for sharing this.

Previous record was 2 laps in 0:33.8. I ran a 0:31.2. My unofficial fastest was 0:30 but it didn't count because I had over 10,000mAh to each ESC. Here is a picture of my unofficial run where my fastest speed was 63 mph. Again, this is all stock, including timing.
                            Hey Rafael,

                            What batteries are you using in the pic above?

                              Now that is beautiful. What camera you using and settings if I may ask? I also use my Phantom 3 Pro to capture video but I can't Pilot the drone and Captain the Voracity at once.

                                Seaking ESC Program Box compatible?

                                Can I program the stock Dynamite ESC's using the Seaking LED Program Box?
