Well to elaborate, the strut had some positive in it, it was good around 90-95mph and didn't blow over until I added more power. But instead of putting it level like I knew I should, I still kept it positive (because I didn't want to add any drag and lose speed) causing more blow overs with this boat in a very short time than my original in over a years worth of running. So in essence, the strut angle and my hard headedness caused this boats demise. The next one I build will have the strut level32" carbon rivercat single 4s 102mph, 27” mini Rivercat 92mph, kbb34 91mph, jessej micro cat(too fast) was -
LOL Travis Keyword= Floatation. Consider additional floatation in your new build.
I glue it in boats that I push hard enough to destroy. And I have destroyed my fair share. A couple of them more than once.

I know I know. I had a good bit in it but that 2250 is a pretty heavy piece. I will be adding more and actually testing it with weight in it this time.Originally posted by Doug Smock View PostLOL Travis Keyword= Floatation. Consider additional floatation in your new build.
