Miss Excite Hydro Thread

[Brushless55]

Gotta ask, but is this the same as the delta force 22" hydro that OSE sells the hull for $85? Looks the same. Just wondering.

Brian

yeah, it's a splash of the CF hull

The newer version of Miss excite is incredible. On 4s it hangs right in there with a UL-1.
If you're going to gut the boat as far as power system you're still better off with the excite. The package Venom puts together now is great and definitely an improvement over their previous kits..

I finished 1st place 3 out of 4 heats at the Grand prix classic against a field of nitro and electric sport 21 boats..

Just wamting to know some info on these i bought one today it's all good but the turn fin is on the left and is tilted inwards
is this normal

You mean the rudder? if its the one on the transom you want to straighten that out.

That is correct, it shouldn't be on the left side.
A batch was made incorrectly. Send it back to Venom they will gladly replace it, or upgrade to a better turn fin as I did and mount it on the other side

I have modified the original one to fit the other side but i was thinking about using one from a ul1 for the adjustability or will it be too big, the stock one starts to lift on straights at full speed, the hull actualy sits about an inch above the water its fast but unstable. Ran a v940/3 with a 2200kv motor on 4s but still want it to go faster maybe doing 45-50 mph

I used one that was even bigger, but the UL-1 fin should work great..

[Namba328]

Exactly. The Ul-1 should work and give you a lil more adjustability to work with and trust me Bill knows how to make one of these boats run sweet.

What rpm is good to run with hydros do they rather smaller props and high rpm, are two 5000mah 2s batterys to much weight in the front i was thinking about trying 3200mah

[Namba328]

Honesty when it comes to hydros it depends on the hull and the equipment used. the 2 5000 2s packs will be fine being Bill runs a hard shell 4s Venom pack so im sure your packs arent as heavy as his lol. So my question for you is what motor, esc and prop are you using and 2. what c rating does your packs have?

[KOS]

well i am using 2 venom hard case 35c packs, with a hobyking 3650 2200kv and a mystery 80a esc and i have tried x637,x437/3, x442 back cut and detounged v940/3
also changed the rudder to one with pickup holes on both sides

[Namba328]

and whats the fastest speed that you have hit?

[KOS]

have not put gps in it yet just trying to get the right set up i think when i was running the v940 it was very flat and turned well but the prop might have been a bit big and not letting it rev free enough so i want to try the v937 or something with less pitch maybe, as for speed i would say 40-45mph as my ekos does 55 and the gas version does 67 so im judging from that

[Namba328]

have you tried the 36mm 1.4 pitch 3 blade alluminum prop from venom???

[KOS]

i have tried a x437/3 it runs ok not fast enough
