Bonzi epic 60 build

[mappo]

It’s actually a standard size servo it’s the waterproof 25oz I got it before they made the 40 but it has no problems handling this boat. I will probably upgrade to the 40 just because if there was ever a boat that needed it it’s probably this one lol

What brand servo? 25oz, seems rather small for such a large boat. Or did you mean 250 oz?

Power Hd the blue ones that ose sells

So you’re using the power Hd 25kg servo? Ok a pretty decent servo. 319-347 oz

Yes that is what I have currently with zero issues, it can throw that boat around no problem.

Nice build. What size props have you been running?
I have a 48" ML Boatworks mono that I am thinking of converting to FE. I'm thinking of going with a 56 size motor in the 110 to 123mm length range on 12s just to be able to use my existing 6s packs.

I ran an octura 465 for the first run but I have now switched to a modded 2514/3 abc prop. I haven’t tried it out yet

I have an electric epic 60 built by bonzi .
I am having issues getting good water flow . I have dual pickup on the rudder .
Are you getting good water flow at slower speeds i have none . And am thinking about adding electric water pumps . Any thoughts ?

[BlakeT]

My water flow is good at low speeds. I have a speedmaster strait blade rudder on mine

Thanks

Forgot to say I think the water pumps would work, I have seen a few people run them and they have been happy with the results
