    Time to give the Blackjack some attention.

    Ive spent so much time on my dumas sk daddle build in the builds section, that my cat was lonely. I decided to take the stickers off, polish her up and let her wait for her makeover. The plan is,

    Remove battery tray, and radio box.

    Either Fullers or aeromarine hardware. Or could go with the FT hardware.
    I hear the fullers sometimes makes it slower than stock? That true? I want to have a stable boat and not have it blow over any more, and i hear the fullers accomplishes that. I couldnt find much on the aeromarine stuff, any reviews?

    90-120 amp Seaking ESC, 2nd Proboat one is giving me problems again.

    Traxxas waterproof Servo

    And i wanted to get two 3s 5000 batts, but do you think that will be overkill?

    Maybe 2s is will be fine, or i could mix a 2s and a 3s. Any thoughts?

    EDIT: after adding up all costs is it worth it to upgrade, it would be around 250 to do all that. I really want one of the micro hydros salir has. Oh well.

    sounds good. if i were you i'd run a 3s and 2s just to be sure but i think the esc could handle to 3s.

          Ok, that looks good, $30 less too!

          Also with that one do you need to change the brass tube?

                        Also, make sure you shorten and angle the turn fins (or consider getting rid of them completely) depending on the way your hull handles with the new hardware.

                          2 3s in series is a little big, I'm wondering if a 2s and 3s in series would be maximum for the stock ESC and motor but have not heard any input on this. I think the stock setup was rated at 22 volts so 2 3s (6s) should be okay but I don't want to chance it!

                              That would be great for balance
