    Impulse 31 V2 with Miss Geico V2 motor



    Driven at Villingili island in the Maldives

    Here's the small list of the mods I've done so far:

    - Dynamite A3630-1500kv motor
    - OSE turn fins
    - VXP V445 CNC Aluminium prop
    - Castle 6.5mm bullet connectors
    - Moved both Rx antennas inside the hull, parallel to each other on opposite sides of the hull. Have no problems with how far I take the boat for now.

    Running on Venom Sport Power 2S 5000mAh 40C lipos. I tried a V642 prop, which didn't work on this particular run. Way too much cavitation, the boat couldn't even get up on plane! Lowering the strut about 2mm fixed this during the second run - during which the servo mount broke loose

    All patched up and good to go for now! Will be trying 6s as soon as I get a .187 cable and add dual loop cooling for the motor and ESC. Also have a Seaking 180 V3 on the way.

    Overall happy with the results. Feels and looks a little slower than stock with the 1800kv motor, but should be reliable as soon as the driveline is upgraded. The turn fins really made quite a difference! Have zero drops of water inside the hull after running - only the silicone I put near the drain plug gets moist.
Working...
