    Cool build. That's a busy transom for sure.

    Thanks.

    Have you had a chance to get this boat in the water? How does it perform? I just picked up a smash shark and I am working on getting the center of gravity figured out. Any help would be appreciated!

    Yes, CG at 30% is perfect.

    You must have in mind that battery position can be adjusted to have a nice balance on the water.

    Man, I would love to see this in action. I know I have the same motors laying around somewhere and would like to try this on mine if yours runs great on this setup. Did that carbon fiber extension come with that rudder or did you make it to extend the rudder out past the stingers?

    I have the ARTR kit with the 3660Kv motor and 120amp seaking esc. I need to move the esc as it?s currently mounted in front of the motor and I can?t slide the battery back very far. The boat seems to bite a little to hard in the corners and bounce instead of carve a smooth line with the cg at 35% right now. I am running 7600mah 3s pack and I want to get the boat dialed in better before trying a 4s set up.

    What size props are you running, and do they have a high lift/pitch?

    Hi my friend Alain,

    How do you find the CoG when the boat is still not finished for years ???

    Stop pissing off and work on your boat...

    38mm CNC propellers are great, pitch = 1,4.
