    I know you guys are having good luck with the stock motors, but I'd run that rescue boat on 2s with the ekos gear in it. Or you might need a rescue boat for you're rescue boat!

        your rpms are higher with less prop but your travel is almost the same
        the wording mite be wrong but the idea is the same...
        im going with the 10's on 42's should have no problems and
        hit about 55mph...i like to just run it till my batts hit lvc......

            I might have to bolt on my 442's and try her out this weekend for a quick saw run just to see if I can scrub any more speed off this thing. I just dont want to burn anything up. 60mph would be cool bragging rights though!

              Thats probably true,but Im gonna give her hell on 3s.I might run my 442' this evening or in the morning.I have to make adapters still.60mph would be sweet.Id be almost as fast as my buddies Apparation.Ive got a little surprise for him though-2 Align 600XL's 1650kv on 6s.

                Forescott,try the 38's.Theyre awsome.I picked up 4mph.That was with them not sharpened or balanced.And theyre cheap.I think they are 12 dollars and something a piece.

                    You have to try the 442's!I just got back from running with them.Got 64.3mph on Garmin GPS!Temps were 177 degrees with a 5 minute run.Its jumps completely out of the water.I ran out of room as the local spot is a hair short for really fast runs.I believe 66mph is very achievable.Try em,youll love the speed.I know I can beat my buddies Apparation for sure now.

                      No way! I'm impressed. That's really hot though. I already have the 442's bolted on and everything is lubed and batteries are charged. I was gonna run it tomorrow as long as I have calm water.

                          I still use the battery trays. 117 is much better. You had me nervous there for a minute.

                            You might want to take the tray out.Not telling you what to do with your stuff,but the batteries need to be moved way forward.Im going to try different settings on the stingers and batt placement tomorrow.
