I dont think Blackhawk hobbies is in existence anymore. i passed where their shop should be but it look abandoned.

i also checked out where the 2nd video was filmed, Bayou St. John, and it looks to be a promising area to play. I'll keep my eyes open for some people running boats to get a word on these guys status.

Here is a video from this weekend,, REALLY WINDY!!! Way too rough for this little Hydro...

It was running a 3300KV watercooled motor, CC 125 esc, 2/ 4000mAh 7.4V 25C lipos in series for 14.8V, and X437 prop..

Hey tx, great videos!! Amazing speed on that MM with 6S. Once the weather warms up, I am going to run the NeuEnergy 6S1P/5000/30C Lipos - still on backorder, with a Lehner 1950/10 1254kv. Did you use the 1515/3D on your MM?

I have a DF22 Hydro I am building now, I wonder which turn fin did you use on the Hydro? Some have suggested the Aquacraft, but it's 4.4 inches long. I was thinking a length of 2.5 inches would be enough. What do you think?

Awesome videos!! That M/Machine had everyone/thing going crazy... people in the boat, car alarms!!!
