Miss G offset

This "mod" is such a waste of money!! I don't know why people keep buying in to it, lol

It's a $20 mod. By the way, the designer of the boat says its "DEFINITELY a worthwhile mod", so I'm guessing that's why most people do it. Keep in mind most folks are running it with the stock motor, so there is really no disputing it works. You may not see the need for it since you are running different and more powerful motors. Darin also said that speed makes the "wah wah" go away, so you may not see the need for it 'cause you've got yours cookin.

Darin also said that the mod is mainly for racing purposes where getting rid of prop wash makes a big difference, making steering more responsive.

If you ran your batteries 9.5 to 9.75" from the transom forward, you wouldn't need to offset the rudder. IMO, the boat bounces because we all set the batteries to far back causing the boat to try and balance it's self while running, slapping the water instead, causing the bouncing we get. Place the batteries at 9" to center, from the transom forward like stated on the manual and adjust them forward from there. The farther away from the transom you set them, the less the boat will bounce. We all want as much speed out of the stock boat as possible making us run the boat dry, which IMO is why it bounces. Run it a bit wet and the bouncing goes away. I rather have a good running boat than try and gain .2 MPH with a boat that annoyingly bounces as it runs.

I installed my offset, got M445 ( stock on the picture ) on 4S, stock motor, 120Amp esc with batteries forward or back and I have no bouncing so to my boat theory about 9" makes no diference and offset makes the bouncing go away... my3C

What's the difference between version 1 and version 2 besides the lower part of the bracket being cut off?

That is the difference.

What?I don't speak Yoda

What I am saying is that moving battery back and forward did not make any diference to my boat in terms of bouncing.
When my offset was installed bouncing was gone so this was my way of getting rid of bouncing....
( english so I hope you got it this time )

If it works for your boat, that is a good thing.
