    dang that's a lot for shipping!
    but yes, they are working on a new SV27
    It has this new motor and redone esc that looks like the UL-1 esc, 2.4g radio, and black hardware!
    and I hope they did a little tweek on the hull

    Somebody is gonna have to get NAMBA to spell it out and change the rules. I refuse to recognize a new motor in the spec classes otherwise.

    At least it's only a worry for sanctioned events, club racing heas club rules and each club to its own, until a sanctioned event.

    Not worth allot of energy really.

    All I know so far is it runs very strong in my spec rigger. Turns a bigger prop and may make a better choice for the heavier spec boats. It's turning a full diameter 1650 (back cut .100" and detongued) with nearly 6" of cup.

    Ask Darrin how it runs.

    I've got 2 of these motors now one in my FE30 and one in my desk drawer. Anxious to see what's faster the FE30 or the Drawer? I think this should be a good motor and pull the prop my UL-1 motor was having some trouble with. Good medium between a BJ26 and UL-1 motor.

    Looking forward to hearing about the first run

    You mean the SPEC classes? They recognized the motor for SPEC? If so, then that's cool with me.
