Shiny! Looks great!
Came out nice Gimp!! Did you cut down the wires on the ESC?? I may do that, theres quite a bit of excess wire.
Well the Shelby just got some extra horse power. Picked up a new TP Power Pro Competition Series 4050 (measures 4082) 2200kV motor and black tubing from Fighter Cat.
New setup:
All hooked up:
New tubing:
Boat will be getting wet tomorrow!
I'll be curious to see how the TP performs as compared to a 1515.Which prop/s are you using.
I'm up to a X645 in my Miss Behavin'/Miss Geico.Next is a M645.This is what I have the 1515 in.The TP's are rated a little higher.
Outside of a little length of hull we have the same setup. IT was very noticeable going from the M445 to the X645.You've got nice cool water don't you?
The Daytona is longer and quite a bit heavier than the MG so I doubt I'll use a x645. I don't want to go over 60mph because the water gets quite hard at that speed lol, plus I don't race. I'm looking for 55mph with the m445 or x640, and 60mph with the x642.
I haven't been on the water in a good month, I'd have to guess the water temp is about 40*
The on the water photos look so good.
Thanks!
I still feel like she runs too wet. You guys will see it in the video later this week. I just trimmed another inch out of the rear floatation so I can get the batteries further back. To raise the bow, the strut goes up? Max speed with the x642 was 48mph. Only stuck the GPS in for the last run so I don't know what the m445 and x640 ran.
The x640 felt the slowest (only by a fraction) and ran coolest.
The m445 and x642 seemed to be very close in speed, the m445 ran the hottest (educated guess <110*F) followed by the x642.
No problem Chris! I'll try getting a video together by the weekend if I have time.
On what site did you purchase the air scoops. I Have been looking for them and can't find them. Thanks for the info.
