Well I changed out the rudder servo to a hitec 645mg (106-130oz tq) just to test today to make sure im not having issues with the stock traxxas servo(80oz tq). and trimmed the tabs down just a hair. hope it goes well.
Also Im going to try a onboard camera facing forward since i got it working again. It quit working when it was on my mini revo vxl doing about 60mph and flipped.

ive got to just quit using that little camera on my rc's. i swear every time i use it just about on whatever vehicle there is an accident. This time the boat did a few flips. Camera stayed on. but it messed up the video so nothing got recorded.
GPS said 57MPH today. I dont know if i believe it or not. I think it was a fluke. so im not boasting that one till I reproduce it.
still got the death wobble. but its inconsistent i can make a few passes at wot and it rides right and wont wobble. seems to be when i gradually get up to speed it rides better

my temps were 60/65 on motor and esc. it was about 50 outside today

That 57MPH might have been air time

Too bad about loosing the video, would heve been cool to see the wipe out

55Mph

Awesome, my first boat happens to be a Spartan. Are you going to push for 60Mph? I’d love to see it, lots of skeptics.

Best~

This may get you 60 if the hull can stand it.................m545, may be the ticket.

I've got a m645 and a coulple other carbon props on the way. Ordered saturday.

An m545 should get you to around 60-61mph & an m645 should see 64-65mph, Should be interesting to see what the limit is on this hull though. Thanks Martin.

[martin]

Have you scrubed the hull yet, If not its good to know you still have something in hand to possibly use. Thanks Martin.

I went over the ride areas with 1000 grit. That was before I read about other users using a lower grit.

Here is the clip where the GPS said 57mph Sunday. this was its first time in the water that day & on freshly charged packs.

I can only see one pass where maybe it did it.
