titan 29 build

[belltec50]

i got to do some fine tunning on the build

[millzee]

I learnt the 50mph rule on my first run, crashed so hard on it's roof that all my gear come unstuck inside and I learnt to JB weild and reinforce everything. After months of crazy on edge, crash almost every time running, I swapped the 4s out for 3s and finally have a boat I can pin the throttle and she only get's to the point of disaster but dosen't go over, speed around 48-50mph. I'm swapping to a smaller motor when time allows.

Looks good man -). One thing I noticed is the rudder setback. Your prop is much further behind the rudder and may make turning a little funny, not sure tho.

Because they're "fat little hulls" like Dana said, ( I bought mine six years ago from David Kingston in Australia, where it was known as David's "Tubby Titan") they have a tendency to go skyward as you get in the fifties !

Thing looks sweet man. I dunno how anyone could not love these fat little hulls lol
Gps between 48 and 51 depending on conditions. The vid looks like I'm on the high end of my gps readings
