Wow thoese 1717's were amazing... When are you gonna man up and give it wot.... as if the gear won't take it... the doc has athritis so he probably coudn;t go wot with out quartizone......lol

I am all for a 2nd run on Sunday.. depends if his wife loosens the leash ( or he sneaks out again while she is at work) .
Let's up the timing and get those howling twins echoing off the housing along his lake.!
Got 2 sets CR props to try.. his 447s ... and my 3 bladed meat slicers

Tiny, I dont need cortizone.. I need a greasegun for my joints !

Hi
I piloted it today. This was a shake down run to make sure nothing shook off .. and Kent drove the camera !
A few minor adjustment before it does WOT .. here's hoping for tomorrow ...

7.30pm here.. out for food !
Bye ppls........

[TINY]

Ha ha doc, it needs a set of 3 bladers and some more run room so you dont have to burst current so earl... New props, new pond...... look forward to it....

As Thomas Dolby once said "She's poetry in motion"....
Brilliant Job, Bravo! And yes, my fever is going down. Not gone though....like others, I wanna WATCH this beauty's full spool up on the water! Maybe then my fever will subside. ; >

Wayy cool.So which props were those,45's? You'd wanna be careful in the headwind.She sure looks good on the water.Be proud Kent,be proud.Good build.

Then the fever will change and you'll have to build.
I for one am glad he got the 1717's,Now I can watch and save mine.

447 props but even with those, I think you need very high rpm to get any ware, maybe my 450/3 will do nicely, Wayne mentioned to look at the timing on the esc's. Hopefully then we pull out some more guts. The pond is getting small though.

You know,that's what I feel with mine(447's detounged).Which is why I now have 645's and 648's.I think a little pitch might load it up a bit.When I get my shafts I'm gonna put the Eagle Tree on one motor and see what it draws.The 1717's should be able to pull more than my 4082's.

[nata2run]

Well, didn't put the eagle tree on, but after yesterday's event I put the batteries on the charger this morning. What tha' 4.03 highest 4.01 lowest. Didn't take up anything to run 60 od mph. Everything cold though. Next run should be good though.

[srislash]

I'd be willing to bet those 1717's will push Ben's 1.8 pitch 50mm+ props.Just food for thought.

[drwayne]

Kent has a great deal of pride installed into this boat ... so when asked to pilot the first runs, I drove a conservative prop.
When confident all is ready for WOT, we'll open her up.
A few little issues were noted yesterday .. one could've ended this thread sadly if it occurred at WOT... that's why have 'test runs' !

We've a selection of props to trial here.. the 447 were entree.

[nata2run]

Well said Wayne, WOT was the last thing you would want when all of a sudden out of range!!! I would have asked you all nicely to come and help pick up the pieces

[srislash]

That's good Doc,I've got six runs on my Shocker,just graduating slowly too.Just getting caught up in the moment,so to speak.All in good time.We don't like disasters.
