Nice! Any changes? I just put an M445 prop on mine and it really woke it up! I'm still on 4s...

Yes, a few changes!
1-i sharpened the stock prop.
2-i moved the COG to 9''3/8 from transom.
3- i place the batts right behind the motor.
and 4- i added foam for more flotation.

i tried the Grimracer 42x55 and got to 61 km/h. With the octure x442, got 58 km/h. i didn't use the gps for the last run, but it looks faster with the sharpened stock prop.

You should try 5s with that boat, it a great adrenalin rush!

Well, i received my props!!! And a tested the x443 on 4s, it was a bit slow, around 42kph. Then the x442/3 4s i got 51kph. And after this a ran the x440/3 on 5s for my last run of the day, and a got my NEW SPEED RECORD, 67kph. But on the last run i had to move the batts about 2'' forward, in order to keep it on the water, and even then, it was still a bit too dry. I cant wait to see what it will be with my new esc and motor! I will post the vid here in the video section in a few minutes!

Here is the complete run not edited. You can skip from 4:50 to 5:40, it is only my cam looking at the grass. https://youtu.be/HLZRM0FBfdA

Finally, my parts are arrived !!! Look at these beauties!IMG_20150612_175829.jpg I'll test the setup tomorrow, and see what kind of upgrade this will be!

Nice! Why the new ESC? And what are the motor specs?

[boilo56]

Hi, The motor is a 4 pole inrunner, 2200kv, winging 2.5d continuous current 70amp, peak current 100amp max power 1200w. This is what is written on the box.

I'm waiting on my batteries to finish charging to go try this setup!

[boilo56]

The new ESC is 'cause the MM2 need to go back in my Slash 4x4!

[boilo56]

But i tought it would be a good idea to install the traxxas telemetry on it, for voltage and temps!IMG_20150613_115619.jpg
