Delta Force Hull

[Darin Jordan]

Prop was something in the neighborhood of an X450/3 or something like that...

Amps were less than it takes to pop a Hydra 240... In otherwords, the hydra 240 has survived all season with that setup, so it's less than 240amps continuous... don't have any exact numbers...

have you got any idea of the amp draw and type of prop?

Darin,
on the video you linked, what motor was used? 4s doesn't seems to be a lot in regardes to the speed?!

That was a Neu 1521 1.5D... 1860KV...

Bad news from HK the 33" is not in stock!
Good news Steven...

[ED66677]

HOLLY SMOKE! that's fast man!
I'll have to go for Lipo's soon, 'cause 18x4000 Nimh will never do it!!!

Here, go see for yourself... This is a 4S2P 33" Delta Force set up for NAMBA P-Mono... This was it's first time in the water...

And this was the race that followed... You'll have to look fast... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OshfHVIwrZM

understand!

What Darin said.
I think it is because of the large flat ride pad which makes them handle kinda bad.
The steps on the triton are not in contact with the water when the boat is moving. The hull has a single wet'd ride pad but it does HAVE steps. There for people will get on your case about running the boat in mono even thought the ride pad is one wet'd surface.

[ED66677]

OK great, so I wont bother myself with steps then, leave it stock!
Seems to be THE choice!!!

[Darin Jordan]

Sorry Eyekandyboats but I'm nore sure to understand exactly what you ment... yeah I'm french so...

Taylor is saying that the Delta Force handles better than the ToySport Triton and Syncron...

The Deltas really are great driving boats... You can't reallly go wrong with them...

hkusp45, what was your setup?

thanks for the trick Darin!

[Darin Jordan]

I just used a Delta force 33 to beat the P mono record for straight lines. This same boat won the nats last year... You cant go wrong with a delta!!

Nice job on the P-Mono record, by the way..... that's FLYING for a Mono...

From what I've observed, the Delta Force, likely much like a good Seducer, track really well at speed... they are predictable when set up correctly...

One of the problems I've seen with builds of these are people trying to set them up as if we didn't have enough power by putting the CG WAY too far back... Mine is as far forward as 33% under some conditions... Start at 30%... don't fudge... My guess is that for most running, you'll move it FORWARD, not back... IF you have power... If you are running a marginal setup, then you may need to play with this...

The toysport mono's cant handle worth crap compared to the delta force line.
We had a triton and a syncron in n2 and P and with a delta beside it there was no competition.
But my $0.02
