    Finally got some vids of my Pursuit today

    A few have been asking for videos and finally got some today. My wife is not the best cameraman but you get the jist of it :). Now that the boat is painted, after today's flip on 6S, I think I am going to slow it down and just stick to the 4S setup. Still fast enough to have fun, much more stable and on 4s2p, it has a very nice run time. I feel I am just pushing this hull too much on 6S with this setup and now that it is painted, I don't want to beat the crap out of it again. The flip today put a couple of stress cracks in the gel on the bottom, so no more abuse for this one right now- I want to keep it pretty for a while!

    I swear I saw a how to embed youtube videos link here somewhere but can't find it now. If anyone knows how, please let me know :). Thanks.

      Lol, sadly- that driving was all me . That is just the sort of thing this boat likes to do with this motor in it- try to kill itself lol. I ordered a Fightercat Daytona that is going to be getting the 4082 out of the Pursuit and I'm going to go with another setup in this one. It was a lot more fun to use when it was slower! The way it runs on 4S with this motor isn't bad at all, nice and stable. If it does get launched from the water- it leaves and comes back down nicely and continues on. With the 6S- once it leaves the water, it just tries to destroy itself! I may go with something smaller with similar KV, maybe a bit more (probably a cheaper HK motor or something) and keep it 4S2P and just enjoy the long runtimes!

      How did you embed the youtube vids?

        I know, Just busting balls.
        Did you ever find out what speedS you were getting with it ?

        Video's you need to copy URL from youttube and paste it in the insert video icon.

          Lol.. Nah, haven't gotten any speeds yet. It certainly moves out, but no gps. I want to gps it again, but I use my phone- I have a galaxy note 2 and this thing is huge!! Also nervous about breaking it the way this boat likes to crash :-(.

            I know how to fix that,
            Let the wife drive it for a change.
            May be it is not the setup or the hull.

                Nope, haven't touched it since. The flip in that vid put some more stress cracks in the bottom and pissed me off so it's been sitting. I actually have it packed to go out today with me but I am only going to be running it on 4S.. Considering selling it, not sure yet.
