This was an absolute blast to build and run, it was my first big build and I learned alot and was quite proud when I completed it a year and a half ago. I just dont run it anymore, 1 time only this year, I just like mono's better and this guy is big to haul around.
Specs:
*Listed as 50 incher when I bought it brand new, its more like 48"
*Castle 2028 with custom, self made watercooling jacket, works perfect!
*Twin Traxxas 2056 servo's which have been plenty for the steering job.
*All hardware is new speedmaster stuff as the original gas stuff was odd size and I wanted a dual pickup rudder.
*Prather s270 cut down to 63mm diameter.
I ran this boat on 9s2p and six 3s batts fit perfectly in the original gas tank area, this helps keep the cg about 2 inches behind the end of the sponson.
I sealed the air intake on the canopy and made a plexiglass cover for the exit. It is bolted near the top, but I tape it all the way around since i needs to be spread at the bottom to lock down, i couldnt put bolts there..........I has never leaked.........
This boat has NEVER been flipped, or crashed in any way, its rock solid and weighs in at 23 lbs fully loaded. I am keeping the SF240a hv so you will need a speedo. You can use your own arrangement of lipos based on your current inventory of them, two 4s and two 5s for 9s2p, or run it on 8s2p or 10s2p which I did one time and didnt really see that much more speed, probably 2-3 mph. The lipos are not included
The Castle motor is an absolute Beast and comes with 8mm bullets. I have peaked at 230 amps with it and ran a constant 200a many runs...........roughly 10hp!!!!!!
New lower price - $650 shipped to the LOWER 48 U.S. states ONLY , no ins, to be provided by buyer if needed. You guys get first shot for a couple days, then Ebay bound where my stuff typically brings more.
All correspondence must be on this thread. I would gladly accept a US Postal Money order to save on fees, but if you want to use paypal you may.
Vid of a typical run..............hit around 56-57 i think in this early vid, trimmed out now and hits 60.
