    Motor is a Proteus (same size as Castle2028) which I went with 600kv and on 12s. I had a Flier 300 amp 16s ESC around so that is what I’m using. Currently I have a 455 prop on it and I am thinking 50mph and 8mins of runtime on 8000mah would be nice but we shall see. This is my first big single V hull.

    Not my last tho, I have 4 AC Boats hulls in this size and one Delta Force 47”.

    Just a suggestion, would epoxy mixed with micro balloons for sand ability be a more durable filler?

    If I was going for max strength I would just use epoxy but it’s a PITA to sand. The bulk of that in the pic is ‘bondo’.
    It was recommended by a friend and I must say I like it. You can get it set with hardener so you can sand in 15mins. Quick job for a larger area!

    Bondo is what i have been using for any straightening on my DV-60 as well.... easy to work with and easy to sand... and weatherproof (gotta love automotive products)
