Inclination should be at 3.5 degrees that is the big deal. strut flat on the table, tub at zero in center.

The trick is getting a ESC to hold up to the amp draw, the 98MPH run was with a 1527 1d 6s1P V947 if memory serves me correct.

wow, only 10mph more than my(now Paddy's) maritimo on 6S 1512 twin.
I aim for more than that here.

chuckle.. esc are not a problem.. I'll just ramp up output to whatever is required.

Funny I have a 1527 1D in mine to run oval on 4S2P. OH, that is if I ever get time to finish

There's rumor of one of these at 98mph.. but nothing specific Ive found.
Paddy's was sorta interesting.... far from his fastest
The one you sent to John Watkins passed over my desk 2010? .. ditto sorta interesting but no world beater.
Im here playing with known equip just to see what if... this hull is now mine to drill and glue and bend and mend.
Always looking for extra advice.. seems you're the man to know, Randy.

What do you know about this hull setup that I would appreciate to learn ??

Cool Chuck. One of the girls is out on the corner of the street making the money for it now.

She's a hard luck case who talks about her husband's obsession with battery powered toys... great for extra coin...

I happen to know that a certain regular contributor to this thread has a BBY SAW rigger that is about to hit the water. Just a reminder to this person about pics and videos for us mere mortals to drool over.

Paddy, the "Stage 5" prop is done, a blatant copy of one professionally done by the "More Show Than Go Prop Co." - a division of G-Freak.

all complaints dealt with the flush/push of a button eh Doc? That's the manly way

The occasional complaint returns for more attention, Paddy.
Usually those are related to late night after work parties... but the details I will spare you.
