    There are those who talk, and those who take action. Over the course of the past few weeks, I have learned the OP is a talker. First it was the TP mess, then it was about wanting a new Seaking v3 esc, and now its wanting to put a Lehner motor in a TFL boat.

    Typically by the time a person gets into Lehner motors, they understand the difference between CF and FG and dont need to ask questions for the sake of asking questions. If there is a genuine question, by all means... ask it. But it sure seems like we are all over the place with all kinds of mis matched components, hulls and ideas.

    Can I get an answer instead of a riddle. Everything I say, I do. The Zonda I got is carbon fiber. I lined it with fiberglass mat . The build was suppose to be both fiber glass and carbon fiber originally. I could see it.
    now back to my question, which hull is best for what im trying to do? If im wrong enlighten me.

    How about hpr 115, twin lehner 2240 8 wind, swordfish esc if you have the $ an mgm 250. Go big or go home.

    If not, then a fantasm with twin leopard 4082 2200kv 6, seaking 180. You will have enough fun and setup woes to last you awhile, and some speed

    Good For you!
    I am moving up to TP Motors, just ordered another one. This after having boats with Neu 2230 ( Schulze 40.160) and 2215( Schulze 40.160) .
    BTW, a higher grade of ESC would be Shulze , buy they are no longer produced. The MGMs are good, like those recommended to you.
    I just ordered a Swordfish ESC, to give it a try.
    Looks like I am ALL OVER THE PLACE!

    if going for high speed the cheetah isn't the hull. I'd go fantasm if the hpr isn't on the list.

    OK which one is it? HPR or Cheetah? For cat hulls those two couldn't be futher apart in every way imagineable!

    Ive got it. Im gonna put the lehner motors in my Zonda and ill put my TP 2390kv in a cheetah or fantasm, maybe even hpr 115. Im looking for extra money.
    the reason why I keep mentioning cheetah , is because I like to see it. Im looking to build 1 more boat and I aint to excited about spending all money into a bare hull. Hpr, got me thinking. Isn't the fantasm the same as the Zonda?

    yup, it is. the hpr is an investment, you'll have it for a long time and will survive most crashes unscathed. worth every penny, i don't own one but see first hand what they can do for the past few years. Why not look at an mhz mystic 114cm, you can get one shipped to you for like 520$ as a bare carbon kevlar hull from germany.

    shipping is 65 euro for a boat this size from mhz, takes 3 days max to get it from germany to NY where I live.

    Also Keith Bradley just started taking orders for his new 45" Mystic style CF hull built by Radtek. They're $499.00, I ordered one I'm getting the third one off. You can order them on the KB forum

    Can u compare hulls? Im trying to do my ultimate build and last boat for now. I guess ill be able to say I own a HPR hull. Im worried about the strength of the hulls out there. I own a Zonda and the hull seem sooo thin. I had to reinforce . Does the HPR hull come reinforced already? I payed that for Zonda hull.

    What do you want out of a boat ? So far all 3 boats you spoke of are all completely different animals. First and most important you can't even compare hpr to the other two. The only other boats that come close to an hpr 115 is a mystic 114 and KGB 45. Now that's out of the way lets talk about money. Hpr hull alone will net you more than a rtr zonda or cheetah. Third thing is what type of driving style are you looking to do.
