    My R-42 twin FE

    Getting a bit more comfy with this boat. I have been trying a few props and tearing up the waters a bit more. I also squeezed in a set of 4 Polyquest 5000mah 6s batterers in her. This is today's vid with the 447's.

    20,000 MAH, how much does that bad boy weigh? How much runtime you get?

      I think I can get 10 mins with those 447's. I haven't put it on the scale yet. I think I like the 6s4p 3300mah packs better. A bit more nimble.
      Thanks for looking, Shawn

          Hey Dave, good seeing you. This one is a bit over kill with 1717's. Room to grow, lol

              Room there shall, gps'd it today and got 60 MPH on the 447's. Quite respectable speed though to carve turns in the rough water. I'll try to post a vid yet tonight.

                  My calibrated eye ball says it looks faster, almost looser on that last video.

                    Looks a bit faster Shawn. Sure stuck to the water with that wind.

                      Yup, she is going to be a lot of fun. Not like the other cats, oops, on its lid again?

                      I'll GPS a few other props but I am looking for 65-70, a decent run time and cornering.
