    50mph Motley Crew

    I decided to swap the prop on the MC today to a M545. Everything else is stock, with the exception of the flex. I was running PolyRC 4S1P 5050mAh 35C. Hit 50mph on the first pass and went downhill from there. I think 4S2P is in my future if I want to keep running this prop.

          After the run, I temped it at 138F. The esc was under 130F.

              Looks like hull is capable of going LOTS FASTER. Now buy some good 4s lipos. IMO the Thunderpower 65c packs are the best out there. I would purchase the 4400mah or the 5000mah packs to power future upgrades such as a Neu 1515 1y 2200kv motor and Hydra 240 esc. Beautiful lake and hull BTW.

                4S2P will probably happen soon so I can run the M545 and feel more comfortable doing so. I just popped back on a Graupner K42 and the speed is so disappointing comparatively. High was 39.24mph with everything else the same.

                  The new Grimracer packs are good also. You can get these for good prices using Tower discounts.
