    Pics of the first time out.

    What a blast! Went and ran at the boat launch by my cousin's place. Bone stock MG other than a different rx, and a s&b x642. This boat is a ton of fun!

        Thanks! I spent the majority of the first run TRYING to flip it. Seems near impossible on 4s with the stock power setup, though the water was smooth. This boat is incredibly stable for stock out of the box with nothing done but a prop slapped on.

                  Thanks man. I just cropped the high resolution version of the last picture I posted. It was kind of hard to see in that one.

                          Thanks bud. It's a bone stock mg other than a sharpened and balanced x642. Running on a pair of 2s Hyperion vx 4200 packs in series. I'd guess somewhere between 35 and 40, but no gps so I'm not sure.
