          At these speeds there is a fine line between a ballanced and un-ballanced setup/ tune. You have the pieces and the knowledge is here to make it jive. Hell, I put my first Zelos36 hull on the shelf I was so frustrated with it. Baby steps, when you nail it you'll know.

            That is exactly where mine is sitting, on the shelf. I know when I've been beat, well at least for now. I will get back at it again soon enough, gotta try a couple changes.

              I still really wish they would offer the bare hull in white Lol. I'd love to build one but the yellow is kind of an eye sore for me. And I have no patience to do a nice paint job, especially when it will get used and abused

                I may have taken your !! wrong, and I will man up to that, but I am not a retard and if you forgot more then I know about R/C boats, you must have serious memory issues

                  Agreed. I asked about this before ordering hull #2. All I got was, nope... They said the same thing about a decal set (odd)... I should throw some MHZ decals or something on mine once I fix the paint lol.

                    Fweasel, your drives shipped priority. Might have them by Friday but if not I would think Saturday since you are one state over. I am updating my site soon to have the full wire drive kit. Couplers, drivedogs, drives (with drivedog slot machined) and bullet nuts. Full kit.

                        Thanks for getting them out Jeff. Today is Veteran's Day, no mail service. Hope they might actually arrive on Saturday. Will my drive's be slotted on the prop shaft or do I need to do that myself?

                          What am I doing wrong? I want to run 4 batteries so I picked up a couple of the DYNC0028 series adaptors, I plug the batteries in and plug them into the speed control and no voltage. If I plug the batteries in individually they work fine. Not sure what's going on so if someone can clue me in I would appreciate it.
                          Thanks,
                          Rick

                            One harness on each side and 2 packs per side? That's the way I remember it. The ESCs should recognize it. You didn't change the chemistry by chance right?

                              Right.

                              Rtcurtis - I assume you're no longer using the 2 battery harness, right? That should not be used when running 4 batteries.

                              And is the ESC set to 6S or auto? Shouldn't matter, but out of habit, I always set mine to the voltage I'm using and not auto.

                                I leave it to auto calculate unless I'm running Turnigy ESCs
