I ran the boat today with the tp4060 and 1915 prop. The boat was Kinda loose but I did get 71mph. I feel she's got a few more mph in her with some adjustments

I'm glad this thread is active again. Just slapped in a 4092 Leo and a T180 v2 in it. Just gotta get her in the water.Proboat Voracity-E 36" , Proboat Zelos 36 Twin , Proboat Miss Geico 29" , Traxxas Spartan, Fightercat Daytona, ZondaComment

Finished installing the Speedmaster 1.5" trim tabs that I got from OSE. Nothing major, but now there's a fair bit more fine adjustment and I can easily match both sides. I also don't have to worry about flexing the transom when bending the stockers. No drilling needed, bolt pattern was the same, but I did have to enlarge two of the holes so I could use the larger hardware. I actually ended up using the original stainless tabs with the new aluminum adjusters. The tabs included with the kit were a little too stiff and needed to be redrilled in order to sit 1/16" above the bottom of the hull. I also had to cut down the right side adjuster screw so it wouldn't interfere with the rudder mount.

Keagan-Z06, I have the same setup Leo 4092 1730 kv 180 esc only getting 60 mph[X452 prop] out of it right now. If I run bigger then a M445 prop I have issues. Been running this for about two months and having issues with cutting off at wot after about 3 seconds. Tried running lvc turned off [no longer run time then 3 min.] Running 2x3s and even ran 2x3s in parallel to check for voltage drop and amp draw. Sent one 180 esc back and they one sent me a new one and still having the same issues I even added caps to the esc. I saw that arrover has been running this for a while and never mention this as a issue[his article convinced me to do this, lol] and killerbob mention he saw this with different batts one time but I'm not sure how he cured this. I changed transmitters and receivers also. I can run the 3 minutes on and off throttle with no issues until 3 seconds of wot. Almost acts like I need a bigger esc. Open for suggestions and comments. ThanksComment

Hey man, I am running 1480kv, haven't ran it yet but if the weather holds up today I'll give it a go. I had that exact problem of ESC cutting out in my Zonda, I am running T180 V2 ESCs in that. I disabled LVC and selected the Lipo count manually and it hasn't count out yet. I figured it would after my 70+ run in that boat but it didn't, I have not done all this with my Voracity but now that you mention it, its best to do that before.Keagan-Z06, I have the same setup Leo 4092 1730 kv 180 esc only getting 60 mph[X452 prop] out of it right now.

Started with a set of Venom 5000mah 100c but they were old and a little puffy so I disposed of them. Now I have a set of new lecton 50c 5200mah that I have been running[2x3s=22.2volts]. Yesterday I ran 4 Traxxas 25c 5000mah[2x3s] plus [2x3s] in parallel to see if that would help.Last edited by Revolt Flash; 11-07-2016, 04:23 PM.Comment
