Man that thing is planted and pulls very nice.

[dana]

Looks fast, but completely out of control. Nowhere near trimmed out or stable

[RandomHero]

almost got the bug worked out! Now I need good water

[dana]

Post some vid when you get that sucker running full throttle -)

[iamandrew]

Lol, my genesis looks like that blackjack in the vid!, when i turn up the speed to 1.5x speed

[RandomHero]

Thats a x645 the motor and esc are running at 91*F can i go with a BIGGER prop?

[siberianhusky]

Hope you have a better place to run! Seems kinda pointless when you can't pull the trigger for more than 3 seconds.
Would love to see it run where you can open it up and see what it really does!
Be interesting to see how long the hull survives at that speed.

[RandomHero]

The hull is bullet proof 5000 psi epoxy with steel re-enforced with grate stuff foam its like a rock lol And i run my bass boat just have not had it in the water this was just a looksee!!!

5000 PSI Epoxy? hahhaaah awesome :D
if its just been enforced with foam you can just say so dood :P

Thats a sick boat there Random...............sounds mean and spooky in the vid with the echos. Are you running two 4s packs or one? I'm asking cuz thats ALOT of prop for a T180 to handle with a 4082 2200kv...............they like to premature LVC as most know. I bet on a long stretch your boat would gps at 58-60 mph..............nice ride!!

[RandomHero]

Lol I cut 5 strips of 1/8 inch stainless steel one runs uP the middle 4 up front epoxy them down then did the whole bottom with a good layer of it then the foam !! Thanks!!!.....

[RandomHero]

I run 1 4s And the LVT cuts off at about 60% of battery

[Make-a-Wake]

You can lower the LVC to 3.0v, or 2.8v for more runtime.

[RandomHero]

Will that hurt the battery's ? Or is it just the esc going nuts?

[Make-a-Wake]

The T180's quite often wont allow you to use 80-90% of your pack, they LVC early, especially with a 1p setup like yours. I went to a 2p in my Pursuit and it stopped happening. Setiing it at 2.8v is not recommended, but I do it and have had no issues with my batts, 3.0v and you're fine for sure.

That was a sick ride. Great setup appreciate the pics. How much weight do you think you added to the hull?

[Jersey Crewmax]

Thats a x645 the motor and esc are running at 91*F can i go with a BIGGER prop?

Looks awesome, makes me want to
Look into a Revolt.

[highflyerbill]

That is one scarry handling boat . Looks like when you touch the rudder wheel you have to be ready for it to go any where . It's an accident wating to happen . A boat at 55 or 60 that's almost out of control is dangerous .

That is the video that pushed me over to fast electrics! I ditched the idea of resurrecting my old Prather Deep Vee 31' Outboard after coming across this video. The weekend before I had my boat running and I broke a driveshaft, plus I never did get a full tank of fuel run on it. I started that project back in 1993. Electric power is awesome.

and here's how you post a youtube vid, you were close, the two brackets should look like this without the spaces, its the only way i could show it here without it thinking there was a video.

Actually, there is a little icon of a filmstrip at the top of the reply window, at about center. When you click this you just paste in the link and it does it for you now.
