I have to get my catamaran back running again , had a little run in with a stump ha, and then I am going to start digging in on the hydro. I will post pictures of the progress and I am sure more questions will pop up .Thanks for the help !!

I'd suggest to run this on 4s, its a 4 pole motor, i have several of these and am very pleased with them.

Consider these 2s batts x 2 for 4s - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...arehouse_.html

If you are in Wa. state, these Batts ship from right there, or you can get them from the HK warehouse where the motor comes from.

EDIT: i linked the same motor as Husky...................must be a good one!!

Thanks Make a wake , Thats funny those ship from wa. state . I didnt know that. I think I am just going to go with the 4s setup , looking at the boat there is going to be plenty of room for the batt. etc. That sure looks like a good motor I think I am going to order up one of those . Thanks again ,

Hi all , just checking in with some current photo's of The Pak , I have sanded all the nasty old paint off , for the most part , removed the prop bulp and tried to clean up the inside as much as possible. The old epoxy was thick as heck and not quite what I want to run . My goal is to finish cleaning up the inside and fit the new stuffing tube and strut I just ordered off of O.S.E. , I got the .150 flex shaft and 3/16th prop shaft for the strut masters small strut as was recommended to me for this boat. 3/16th . I was also told to use the strut masters small rudder. pak apri 23 2.jpgpak april 23 3.jpg

A quick update , I ordered the leopard 4074 kit from o.s.e with the 180 esc , speedmaster strut and rudder , mocked it all up and stripped it down for paint . which I am working on currently . I decided not to go with the original " PaynPak " decals. I figured what the heck and came up with my own idea . My wifes name is jennifer so we always joke about the Forrest Gump movie , so I am building the " Miss Jenny " . Paint is turning out pretty good I think . I cant wait to run this thing !!boat 1.jpgboat 2.jpgboat 3.jpg
