I finally did it. After installing my new strut and offset rudder setup this week I made it back out to the pond this afternoon. It took me a few runs, but I was finally able to get the strut in the right spot. The first few runs were in the 45.9-46.6 range. I recharged the batteries, tweaked it a bit more, and was rewarded with a 49.4. I changed to my older trinity batteries shortly after they came off the charger and I was able to run 51.9 mph.
I am still running the x642 prop right now. I am going to try a couple of more props, so hopefully I can find a little more speed.
Almost forgot, thanks to Treystoys for answering my questions on the conversion of the the drive hardware!
