    I took her for a run yesterday and it went well. I have to make a couple adjustments to the stingers (trim up) to get the transom to stay planted, but in all I was very happy. Here's a couple short videos of her running on 6s. The first video is her running a set of 42mm props and the second video is her running 45mm props.

    Well its been a while since my last post. But during that time I had some .078 wire drives with 3/16 stub shafts made and I drilled the stringers out to 3/16 aswell. I'm in the process of completing the wiring and hoping I can take her for a maiden run this weekend.

    Hey Bill,
    Here's an idea release a limited edition EKOS, one with parts Atomic already sells. Use the 2200kv out runners from the P1, the larger clamp motor mounts, and your 120amp esc's. I would bet that this boat config would have been less criticized and would be more competitive against other rtr's in it's price range ($600). But I do understand that at this price point, it would cut into the profit margins.
    Food for thought.

    Richard

    What are the specs on the new motors? Aren't they 380 2700kv out runners, with the 380 clamp mounts?
