6 ft Miss Budweiser hydro

[kfxguy]

I was thinking a 2028 was too small myself but I didn't comment because I have no experience with this hull.

While whatever you choose to do is your decision, personally, that hull would look nice, cleaned up and hung on the wall for display purposes.

Not trying to break a speed record, I want to enjoy it on the water. it will become a man cave item. I want to build a 1/8 hydro.

[srislash]

Jay kind of shut me down there a tad. Man cave item is good. But always good to day's he runs'.
Awhile back I was looking at the aforementioned ProBoat 4ft hull locally for cheap, look up some vids and see how they run. These large hulls are so buoyant with the light gas setups they just kind of run different at nominal speeds.
Jay is right, hydros are a completely different beast to setup. But really, look up ProBoat 1/4scale Miss Bud on YouTube or Google.

Here's a link to two built by mudl and Christian, some very costly hardware though. Hard to build a "budget build" with this size hull.

Think id go with a 2028 on 10s but not sure of the esc

6 feet? no way,

in my opinion at least, way too small

Pretty sure there is one of these in the for sale area. It was awhile back but you could check.

And it would depend on the KV, Flier is the only ESC out there above 16s

I have a TP100. I was holding on to it for my "Larger" project as an alternative to the LMT3080's but I could let it go for the right price. You still need a pretty beefy ESC though.

[shrop2222]

What are you looking at for right price?

[Hotrods]

I would be curious as to how this boat is built. I have my concerns as well on the construction.

[shrop2222]

Boat is all fiberglass with 2 wood spars running from rear of sponsors to transom. 3 crossmember.

I could do $450 shipped. It's one heavy motor......!

[flraptor07]

I have a little experience with larger Hydros, I built a Mountain Hobby's 48" Hydro with a Leopard 56110 1100kv on 10s with a SF 300 Pro Plus ESC the boat ran about 70 and it was heavy @ almost 20lbs.

[Fluid]

Uh, 48" is a long way from 72".

If it were mine, Id go with a twin motor setup, perhaps dual Leopard 5698s, or even better, 2x TP Power 5670s, perhaps 750kv or 820kv. the latter you can pickup for around 160$ brand new, pretty darn good deal. Just need powerful enough ESCs to boot, but this thing would MOVE with that setup.

This boat^^^ is wicked fast and its about 61 inches long by 30 inches wide, and is a whopping 40lbs!! running the aforementioned dual TP power setup, and only 200 amp escs each. 10s would be ample too id imagine
