    Blake, I raised the outer tabs and used only the inside tabs just about 1/8 turn below level. Temps are 115 on caps, about 110 on the motor and 105 on the cells. It came a long way from when you first came to visit and I was testing it then.
    What's the setup on that mono?

      In our club all the members run Neu 1515 1Y, Hydra 240 and 4s2p. Doug helped and showed me how to setup the boat else it would never run the way it does now.

The classes entered were P-mono, Spec Sport Hydro, N-Mono and FE O/B Tunnel. Big thanks goes out to Doug Smock for being our little GA Power Plant and for bringing the FL and GA boys together. It was good seeing the faces to many I heard stories of. Jason Sims congrats on your 1st place LSH win, you also did good in tunnel. Chris, Ken, Mike and Kevin, it was nice meeting you guys. Thanks Mike for those screws I needed to fix my rudder. Anyhow you must be wondering where are the videos. Over the next couple days I will post all the videos I recorded down there so check back regularly.

          Video 1 - My SV27 powered Vac-U-Pickle running balls out with Ken Haynes UL-1 Powered Whiplash Sport 20. Good run Ken!


          Video 2 - P-mono race with Mike Martin, Doug Smock, Kevin Delk and myself.


          Video 3 - FE O/B Tunnel with Jeff, Kevin, Chris, Trini


          Video 4 - Ken running is DF Sniper in Open Mono

                Didn't Norman and my UL-1 teach you a lessen the first time we ran. We ran circles around you with very little tuning at all. BTW thanks for letting me use your x442 prop that day. I also need to return Doug's lead wheel weights that I borrowed that day...thanks Doug.

                OK Trini...I'll furnish the props for both our hulls next time.

                  Come on out to the pond tomorrow Keith, it will be fun watching you two go at it. LOL
                  Three rounds, winner takes home the wheel weights.

                  Seriously, come back out when you can, we enjoyed having you!!!!

                    Thanks Doug, but I'm working night shift this weekend (I work every other weekend). Maybe next weekend. Either me or one of you can send PM to talk about get together.

                    Trini, Judging by the video you are a verygood consistant driver...your Pickle looks very stable also...GOOD JOB ! I bet if you were driving that big ol Whiplash, you would have won easily.
