    Zytiron 24E FE Hydrofoil

    I just scored this beauty last night and I can't wait to see her in person. I will be selling items to compensate (maybe not boat stuff though)
    She's a Fast electric Hydrofoil called the Zytiron 24E by Ken cook of Hydrofoils inc. (no longer made)

                          I found this old RC magazine for sale on Ebay. It has what looks to be a very similar (or the same) hydrofoil on the cover.

                          Pardon Our Interruption...

                          You may want to pick it up and read about it from back in the day.

                                      I used to own one before the days of brushless & lipos.

                                      I sold it years ago... not sure what became of it. I only ran it teice I think before it collected dust. Sorta wish I still had it but, cest-lavie!

                                      If you want to know anything just ask.

                                      I still remember most of the concept of how it runs. Basically nose slightly down.

                                      The video I had on VHS, I could look for that but, I might have sent it with boat.

                                      Please take some picks of the riding surfaces for me. It will help in assisting if you need any that is.

                                          I remember when they came out. I have that magazine if you want a scan a copy. Cool boat Trent had one but I never got to see it run.

                                                  What is important first off is that the metal ridiing surfaces are sharpened properly.

                                                  I will have to dig up old pics from when I sold mine. It will spark memory...

                                                      I bet this boat would do better with a SV27 motor and ESC with possibly 4S1P 5000mah to 6000mah. Or and 3S setup and a Leopard motor.
                                                      I would be careful of using lipo it may destroy the styrene hull combined with brushless.
