New BJ Owner without maiden voyage

Thanks.

[snaychev]

Today i went on the Kamchia river to try the lipos for the first time - awesome speed, double than Ni Mh. Will post video soon. Speed was enough for the operator to lose it off sight.

The boat seems to be running great - you did a good job with the setup.

Thank you "egneg".
On the last run i did race with Aquacraft V24 gasoline version 54" - that boat is capable of speed 60 km/h maximum Is she too slow or i am too fast ???

That looks more like it, now it looks like it's chaseing a storm, nice work.
are you going to upgrade your hardware soon?

I must have been looking at the wrong vid when you asked me about how fast your running,
well after seeing this vid i'd say somewhere about high 36 and 38 and maybe low 39,
my best is still 39.7 and still playing with set ups.

[snaychev]

With Track Stick Data Logger the result is 92.6 km/h - about 50 mph.

WOW!!! What am I doing wrong?
What do have your programmer set to?
mine is on
lipo
timing on high
cut off high
set to slow down
I wonder if I should set it to idle not slow down.
on slow down it saids it will run at 50% power, is that when the batterys start to run down or is that at 50 % power all the time, if that is the case then thats why its only running at 38-39 mph, what do you think?

[snaychev]

My card is set to :
Li-Po
Cutoff voltage- High
Cutoff type -slowdown
brake- off
timing -low
throttle - linear
But: i had my stuffing tube broken down from the hull when the securing bolt of the u-joint was loosed and broke the hull from the vibrations.
After the repair i put the new prop and WOW what a speed.
Also after the repair i have more space between the tube and motor - about 5 or 6 mm moved to the transom i think.

[G-UNIT]

Ok thanks, my timing is set to high vs yours at low, I guess i'll keep playing w/strut, prop,and cog and see what I get.
I'm running 5000 mh 40-50c lipos
stock motor,esc
lowered trays
x642 prop
no tupperware
speedmaster hardware.
why I cant reach 40 mph I havent figured out YET !!!!!!!, but I will
