    Your set up sounds good....same I had with my Jae FE .Octura 1450 44mm(3,5cup) and 46mm cup 3,4 are good starting props for heat racing.You can improve your cooling but using the Leopard water jacket I think you are ok.I'm in the middle of a process making big changes on my boat and videos will be posted soon.Gill

      Personally I don't use trust bearings on my NEU motors now but I think they won't hurt your performance at all.Gill

          Today in the morning went to the lake for tests and a pushrod failure cause a big take off during acceleration causing the loss of the rear central sponson......and damage to the rudder blade ! Well some work for the next days for our big event in two weeks. Gill

                That was some awfully rough water to try and go fast in. Which lake in Brazil is the SAW event scheduled?

                  I know Tyler.... it was my fifth try even in rough water and boat was handling good(with limited throttle) but the main problem was a pushrod failure in the servo horn...changed for an aluminium one now.This event is hold in a private property with a 1800ft long lake.Btw if you don't mind which esc do you use with the Neu 1527? Thanks Gill

                            boat's been fixed: cleaned the botton,made a new Ski that was glued carefully and received three laywers of 48gm fiber cloth per side.Now this area is really strong.Waiting for the ICE 240(bought from OSE) and rudder.In this meantime will make more tests with the heat race version.Gill
