      hi tiqueman ur quite welcome and yer it would be good to see what you have planned but as u said if you dont go any further its still a great result. I have a few secret custom mods for mine once the warranty expires and i race a bit longer. all the best

        J/K. I know that motor is probably not allowed for racing.
        from what i've read in the rule book you are more limited by voltage then by motor. like under 15 volts but any motor and certain regulations on hull sizes.


        I will say the gas race i went to yesterday was a little bit more fun to watch but i think that was because there was more boats on the water.

        Question about racing, is this P offshore? are you guys running the offshore course that has the left hand turn down the front straight? I will be racing soon and i think i may have been practicing running the wrong course. My rudder offset was done using some spacers i had laying around. Overall shift to the right was 1 inch as compared to the 2 some others are doing. Using a ul1 motor and 4s2p I don't get any porpoising/ wa wa wa and I can still turn great in both directions

          LSO or Limited Spec Offshore. Motors eligible include the UL-1, Proboat motors, SV motor etc. Keepin mine stock for that class purpose. Plus, I dont need another 55+mph boat. And yes, theres a left hand bouy and now theres another bouy (far right corner) that has changed the course slightly from whats in the video.

            So LSO would be better then P offshore ? I have the ul1 motor with t120 so I'm good to go there right?. This boat goes plenty fast with a ul1 and m445.

              Yes, LSO would be the way to go with your set up.

                        Hey Rich, too hot imo for that set up with out current water temps. I changed the set up the last time Lawson was there as after my first race she came in if I remember correctly low 150s on the motor and upper 140s on the esc. Im running a different prop now. prather.... 220 I think? The one thats 43ish mm. Now it runs low 130s motor and mid 120s on the esc after a 4 min heat. Will go back to the M445 when it cools off. I also had a 120 let go right when the water warmed up, so Im now running a 180 in it.
