    Default What to do? moded apche 24

    Well here she is ...Flex cable routed through stock rudder that's fixed in place and then added a pro boat turn rudder put a extra section of plastic behind the back of the hull wall to make the rear stronger... One thing now i am wondering if i should cut off the fin as show in the photo?...Or will this fin make it more stable in the turns?

    Did not try it yet...I am probably going to put a brushless system in her and a motor of 3,500 or like 4,100 KV and probably a 40mm CF prop and run on 6 cell packs....Don't know how fast it will go and what motor will be better for this boat.

    It looks great though now with the rudder on!

    THANKS

    I would also run it first, before cutting anything off so you have an idea on how it performs.

    yes it works ok but with the 3300KV motor it's a dog the rpm of the motor i was using the traxxas titan 12 is 26000 RPM my 3300KV is only 22000 RPM so it like a slug!
    Think i need a 37ooKV to 4000KV maybe?
