Don't think you can get any more detailed than that other than posting a build thread

im a mechanical engineer.

must be a fancy term for auto mechanic or similar.
In your other ridiculous post about Kintec, you were not able to determine the difference between the words "there" and "their" until I corrected you. And now I'm supposed to believe you're an engineer? God help this country if these are the people @engineering anything lol

Cant please everyone....
I've always had good experiences with Kintec so far.


trimarc geico:
Your getting a bit excited about doing f-all work, to a cheap boat, to get it to run with 50% more power than it was intended for......
Seriously... Troll elsewhere.
If you were 1/10th as smart as you say you are you would have never had the problems in the first place.
Surely you have homework to do or something....

Now we are attacking Engineers, LOL? I take offense at that.... (ha ha. Not really ) My spelling is pretty bad and my typing...worse!, But you need mathmatically things worked out? There would be no complaining... (I am a civil engineer with a degree to boot...)

Anyways... Kintec: I have had no complaints. If Steve is out or doesn't carry an item, Kintec delivers.

Trimarc: I would concede that you may have had a bad or unfortunate build... I would say your expectations might have been a little high as well, but as it is, Kintec is pretty on the up-and-up and unless you are willing to pay LOTS of money for a race ready custom, ALL the RTR boats need tweeks and modifications at the least... I hear your frustration and I have been there.... But my best advice would be to make the best of it and communicate with the guys at Kintec when something is not per what is advertised or up to your expectations. THese guys do not have a huge staff, so you have to be a bit understanding...

With that said: Happy thursday guys.

Jan at Kintec is great, ships thing out very quickly and is on par with Steve here at OSE.

Bought this exact boat off Jan last year only things I have done to it are 2 new one piece flex shafts that I bought from Jan after he let me no they just came in and 43mm L & R aluminum machined props from OSE. Plus some normal adjustments I run 4s 5000s turnigy lipos and the boat runs very nice at speeds of around 40 mph. as for the motors they seem to be pretty good they run cool same for the 2 tunigy 120 esc. The batteries are below the esc and there is little drag and the hull sits fine at full speed about 2/3s of the hull out of the water. This boat is definitely my favorite boat its big beautiful and (FAST ENOUGH FOR ME) plus its easily capable of more speed. When I bought the boat there were 2 setups Jan offered right on his web sight with detailed info on what exactly each setup came with and the price. I bought the boat on a Friday and got it Wednesday pretty quick ship. Well that's all I got

That is exactly my idea of enjoyable boat experience. So many new guys want to break the sound barrier!
I have a question? I never understood the so-called two-piece square end flex , is it simple to change to the one piece shaft Jan sells?

Should be cake for a pro like you,
Just take off the old and put on the new and grease it up and go.

Wish I am better at this, Lenny, you over estimate me, but thanks!

Yes much easier than the 2 piece and it saves time stuffing the tube plus the new one piece is stronger and more true. Jan sells them ready to install they are the exact length I am going out at 9 am to run the Zonda for the first time this year bought my snow tube and I am hoping not to use it.

[lenny]

Than use your head and do not push it to hard first time out this year,
Have fun and no swimming yet.

[carleverett711]

Well 2 down this year and I'm still dry God Bless Spring Oh bye the way have I told you that I love my Zonda
