Awesome Randy, it looks like its going really nicely!

Matt you are wrong and Randy is right,
If you have a 10s1p pack with 4000mah and 10c= 10x4000
If you double it 10x2p pack in parallel you got 4000mah+4000mah= 8000mah = 10x8000mah
so the c rate stays by 10c but the mah doubles and so you get the higher rate.

Axel, Did you even read my post, I was Quoting "6s hydro", Not Randy for starters, who was clearly wrong. Your post has pretty much agreed with what I have posted.

Man this forum is starting to turn into RCUniverse . Every single dolphin who has an opinion feels the need to state if even if its completely wrong.

Please read posts fully and understand what you are saying before posting.

[6S HYDRO]

i retract my previous statements, i was under the impression that the c doubled because some battery manufacturers sell 5000 40c packs that are really 2s 2p packs of 20c 2500mah cells

I am running the Turnigy M2000 with a RCHydros Pistic. I am real happy with the motor so far. With this weather it is hit and miss when I will get to test again.

Randy i got my stock strut & installed it today .It is 1.458 from the bottom of the hull to the bottom of the strut. Is that close enough to use the stock strut or should it be changed ?.

That is roughly 3/32 difference. one more 32nd and it is a 1/8 of an inch. I would guess that would drop the inclination to about 3 degrees or a little less, It would be real wet. Making the boat a slow dog.

newbie to the forum, Someone forwarded me the link to this build and it's very impressive to say the least! I am in the process of gatherring things up for a similar build. It is a stryker 43" hydro, hull and hardware supposed to be here tomorrow according to the fedex site, lil screamer got here today, I have 1/4 scale hitech rudder servo and 2.4 ghz system already, and a 200a controller on the way also. I plan on running 12s but have not purchased them yet. What prop are you thinking about running, ? Ant btw, theres nothing little about the screamer motor, lol, that thing is a beast! Any help here on props would be greatly appreciated. Would prefer a sharpenned and balanced one. Thanks, and what an outstanding job you have going on!

I have not ran 12S yet and probably will not run that many cells, no real need. I feel running a ESC at the max is unsafe for the esc. 10S is a lot of power and you can start with a 455 prop. I have only ran the boat three times. Sorry to be short gota get back to my build.

It does work, I have it on my picture server site. I had a hard time up loading to youtube so I put it there.
