Miss Geico Lets see what this thing can do!

Your wire drive is on the way. I make everything...even for other dealers so it is not like I stock everything...wish I could but I am mostly a manufacturer. Most just sell stock. The spartans have also been a busy new product. Then I get all these custom requests that takes time but I try to make anything they want.

OSE sells my drives but he has no stock at this time.

You may not get big results from a wire...usually don't but they are smoother and less resistance.

I get orders from all over the world so most has to go in line.

Thanks Jeff. I might still try the one from you when I get it. If not, I'm sure I will have a use for it at some point.

Ron, I got those with the big holes to put my lipos in at the dollar store of all places. They were troublesome to get in there but boy they hold my packs snug and they dont move. Plus I like that they are protected from bouncing around. $3 for it. Wish they had yellow.

Not the fastest one on the block, but hoping i can hold my own in LSO if that class gets going. Not sure what happened at the end, hoping it was LVC. Add chop and she is fast enough for me.

Looks like a nice job you did there. Runs really well too. Couple times it looked close to that wall lol. I was like whoa nooo dont smack it.

what motor do u have in the boat shaughnessy? its hulling for sure////i think lso has to be a spec motor but not sure....

What are you running in like two inches of water? Boat is running nice and smooth, looks like its a great setup!

[JPriami]

Today was bitter sweet......

Bad new first?

after hitting a new personal record then running a little more I grabbed some air and the boat flipped.
Split the hull down the front and side where its joined together.



I think the sticker held it together here.



One of the battery trays busted inside too.
Damage isnt too bad and I can fix it. Now I will have to repaint the boat. Oh well, I will be moving the water outlets to the back too so I can fill those holes now. I hate how they are close to the batteries how they were.
Plus I guess I'll add another layer of resin and cloth inside to give it more strength since im getting up there in speeds.

Good news...
I hit 63.2 MPH on the run before the crash.


My 2nd temp sensor wont read on the PC for some reason but shows up in my LCD screen.

[boaterkid333]

ouch thats a hard crash. what are you using to record top speed?

[JPriami]

GPS sensor on my eagle tree data logging system

[jac4412]

How was it running? Stable? I think I remember someone saying that over 60 this boat is going to have stability issues

[jac4412]

Was this a 6s run? 140 amps isn't bad at all

[JPriami]

Was running pretty good really. Still some bounce I was playing with COG to work out. thats when she flipped. I have a short video clip I am trying to upload now of the crash.

[JPriami]

Yes 6S runs. Thats all I am doing in this setup.

[jac4412]

Well besides the flip it really looks like you got a sweet system in there... really gets me excited about my own 4s! Good job
