Mystic C5000 M

[wetsleeves]

motors are Neu 1912F/1y, Esc are Castle HV120.
Im waiting on my new batteries from thunder power as I had a 10s swell on me after I used it approx 3 times.(under warranty) Im getting 4x 5s 30c 5000mah batteries so I can make up to 10s packs.
Smaller packs seem to be easier to look after just incase one decides to swell.

What speeds are you expecting? Seems heavy to me o.0

Weight is killer in that hull...

Not sure, I had this set up in my other cat and it was moving pretty fast but the props I was using were a little small for what the motors could handle. I ended up putting bigger props on the cat and it sure woke the cat up but then tradegy struck. One of the motor tore the engine mount out, tore holes in the bottom of the boat so I never got to see its full potential.

[wetsleeves]

the motors have a lot of torque and can handle large props so I will see what happens when my batteries arrive. I had 45mm props on the boat and motor and electrics where quite cool, so I went to a 50mm prop and that was when tradegy happened.

Well I had a long talk with MHZ and Loo told me that if I wanted to return the yellow hull they would gladly trade it for a white one as soon as they come in and not charge me shipping on the next order to make it a totally square deal. He also let me know that the consumer is King, So a Super Big Cudo to MHZ!!! I was going to make a Miss Gieco out of a small or large hull but I wanted the medium hull to be a JBS, but the more I look at the medium hull it will be fine as a Miss Geico. I also have it in mind to paint them all to get rid of the seem line (and save Gerwin piece of mind from the ugly line) after all she is a beautiful hull.

BTW thanks to whomever contacted MHZ and raised a rucus over me and the yellow boat!

I hate to not bring her in to take more snaps of her but she is hidden in the garage... (wife has no clue I got it) but everytime I go into the mancave I stare at her like a long legged stripper!!! It is one beautiful hull!!!

[Tuslow1]

I'm also starting to have mixed thoughts about power..... now I'm thinking to install 2 8XL's on 4s each with X442's, just to get the party started

you figure I can get 2 XL's and 2 himodel 200's for the price of the one Neu....

ok Gents, I'm getting more parts in for the learnng curve of the yellow boat.
These are parts that I will have to start running the boat on, then much more serious parts will come to max her out...
2 x 8XL Feigao
2 x HiModel 200 amp esc's
2 x X442 r/l and X447r/l CMDI Props
2 x 4, 5 and 6s lipos
I'm still kinda in the air about the highend setups
2 x Neu 1527/ 1D's
2 x esc's
The problem with the esc's that I'm having is it is so many out there and I want the best of the best for this hull. After she is completed "paint" and all it's going to be a once and awhile runner or mainly a shelf queen. I'm going to start on a Mystic small hull and the starter setup from the medium hull will go in the small and that will be my weekly water hotrod .
I've been looking high and low and before anyone says "Schulze" I'm all open to opinions but I think they have lost their minds with over pricing!!! $1,059 US Dollars a piece for the XXL 40.300
I think the MGM's look tempting but whats your thoughts?
