    Drifter S clip. Fast boat! The Green Goblin.



    Sorry seems to skip frames or something a few times.

    First day of testing, was the last run of the day, and the slowest!
    Tried a pitched up x440 that is also de tongued and back cut. Too much pitch, speed dropped and amp draw went up to peaks of 109.
    Noticeably faster with a tweaked x440/3 with amp spikes of 95.
    Gens Ace packs, UL-1 motor and esc.
    Caps were quite warm but not hot enough to make you move your finger, all other temps were fine.
    Nice blow over at the end, knocked a battery loose. Building better tray for the batts.
    Can't wait to get a gps for the eagletree.
    Soon it will be a 2s boat, going to stick a 4200kv lehner in there, soon as I figure out an esc that will handle the amp draw. Also need a couple new batteries for that.
    If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

    Sorry about the video, Mark. When I uploaded it to my youtube channel I inadvertently selected "stabilize" trying to minimize camera movement. The result was a slightly distorted and chopped video. We'll get onto the video sunglasses before too long. Working overtime on Saturday and Mother's Day on Sunday means my boats won't see water for another week.
    A dream not pursued is not worth holding.
