    Daytona testing

    Hey guys, thought I would share my Daytona vid. This was my first build over the winter, trying to get ready for the time trials in Flint in little over a week. Running 5s, still testing, trying different things with her, and getting used to her!



    Don't mind my dirty pontoon, been too busy running the Daytona to clean it up yet, threw it in the water and thats it lol. I've had her running faster than the vid but my gps decided to quit this season, no 6s runs yet but soon. I want to thank Keith and Joel for all their help, two great guys!

        Looks good! I bet it'll pick up 10 mph on 6s. Sounds good too, what motor is that?

            Thanks for the compliments guys! That vid was my second run of the day, and the first time I had a camera person. The morning run was a lot faster, I changed the throttle setting on the esc's to see if I could get more but it slowed her down. Here is a short vid of the morning run that I tried to film myself, sorry it is shaky and not long lol but you can tell she was winding out more. I could tell right away when I ran her that afternoon that she was slower.




            Travis, they are just TP 4050's, my build thread is over on KBB if you want to check it out.

            Shawn, the pontoon is awesome for running lol. Ran the ole revolt around it all last summer. I just have to get used to turning my body around to face the boat again, you can see in the vid where I just turned my head and had my back to the boat and lost signal lol!

            Hopefully I can get her back in the water this weekend.

            I swear the wind has been just about non-stop for weeks, Flint might end up being test and tune for us Michigan guys lol!

            Thanks Guys,
            Shawn
