    The "Coors Light" Stiletto (Castle 1512 1800kv) and KOS P1

    Here is a short vid of my first run in my new Stletto with the Castle 1512 1800kv motor spinning a P215, on my last run I ran for six minutes and all was really cool too nothing over 106-108 degrees. Really fun boat! Had a blast all day today! KOS has a X440 and 120 seaking.

      Thanks Ron, boat is still in good shape too. I know its been passed around but it has a home now..... I need to prop up. Have a a few choices in my prop box. X642, M445, S230. I'll try the 642 next I guess.

        That looked really Good. Glad to see she's running so well. Did it take some tuning to get her there? I had intentions on running a prather 220 or a m445 on her.

          Hey Diesel, thanks! Was really better than I thought. My second run with my zippys was a bit faster too. I wish I had a 220 to try, might have to just buy one. Not sure on the M445, might have to cut my runtime down a bit.

          Didn't really take that much tuning, you did the hard part putting it together. I just set up the motor height and angle and dropped it in the pond..lol

            Yes I would also try a higher pitch prop. 1.4 isn't enough IMO for 1800kv. 642 should do ALOT better

              Thats a SWEET lake to run on! It is mainly that nice, or does it chop up easily?

                It definitely is a great lake to run on. They hold a couple namba district 1 races there now too. Thinking of signing on to run a few of my boats. It does chop up on occasion but you get a good 1 to 3 days a week that are perfect like it was yesterday.
