vvvIIvvv's HPR115

[westbeach]

I totally agree with Gerwin and John. Give it Gerwin to trouble shoot it for you. I am pretty sure it is a small hiccup, selling it now and for some one to find the hiccup will cause you further regrets. Give it a shot.

If you ever find some extra money, ship the boat to me, and i'll check it for you.
All your hardware/motors/escs/lipo's are good quality, so this baby MUST be able to become a
fast boat.
I bet it's only a little thing that went wrong ( esc settings / c.o.g/ or something like that )

btw : what did you use to secure the flexcables in the propshafts ?

I wouldn't sell it. You will lose a lot on what is probably an easy fix.

who makes these as 150 esc's.... I see over in your area they are in widespread use?? never seen them over here in US boats.... they must be good as I see them in alot of High end builds? something is very minor wrong here.... that thing should rip :) don't sell.... don't sell....

theres now a new version which is 200 amps constant and 300 burst? i dont know the burst... but there brilliant http://modellbau-regler.de/xtcommerc...0jt4h0jlfg7i23

[Rumdog]

They better be brilliant for that price!

holy @!>(* yeah... isn't tha like $500 US..???? for a 4-8s 150 amp speedo? wow..... can you say overpriced... is this just retail and they sell for half price or less elsewhere????

[vvviivvv]

ive seen the 150 model (mine) power a Lehner 3060...

theres 2 places which sell them, them direct and some otherwebsite, both the same price.

[vvviivvv]

This also add's to why im annoyed... i tried to get the best quality parts to make a good runner...

im even going to polish the hull before next run...

[Gerwin Brommer]

polishing is bad. you'll loose speed by doing that.
And it won't bring you the missing 15-20 mls/h

James ;

these speedo's are topnotch !
Worth every penny !
I've met the designer of these esc's at the german saw, where he showed me the
prototype of a 120A esc. About the size of a cigaret-lighter.
After testing it appeared it could do much more, he even thought of selling it as a 200A esc.
They tried to burn it, but didn't succeed.
I believe the esc they now sell as as26-200 is the one i saw, now modded with larger coolingcircuit.

vvvivvv.

try to borrow some x447's, move the lipo's as far to the back as you can, and run it ...........

Gotcha... I figured they must be something else as far as quality goes... they are in alot of the MHZ and HPR builds I have seen after looking for them.... I guess they are a notch above the Himodel 4-8s 200 ampers... LOL...

[vvviivvv]

Gerwin I tried 442s then 447's then 33 bladers... I think 447 came closest

[Gerwin Brommer]

I can imagine that.
Try to get your centre of gravity at less than 30 %

I don't know how much your prop direction will affect your problem but in post #4 it looks to me that they are not spinning the proper direction. Can you post a pic.

Did you ever move your batteries back. I am sure this is a simple problem that can be solved and it is most likely to do with your COG. Don't give up yet!
