Pursuit Flipped

[tanasit]

X447/3 Leopard 4082: 2000kv
Both battery packs were placed by the motor's sides.
Trim tabs are leveled with the bottom and the strut was about 2-3 + degree.
Either 4S or 6S it did the below:

Plan to relocate the packs and set the trim and strut to fix this.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

level your strut to be parallel with bottom of hull and about 3/16-1/4" above the keel, and strat with you batts at 30% cg and move them foward if need be

Couldnt agree more, You deff dont want to have 2-3 degrees + on the strut. Set it at 0 degrees & try again, You might find that you may need to put the tabs down a bit as well.

I tried with 0 degree, but it's slower and the amp went up to around 150, no flip though. I guess the prop may be too big, so I will try smaller ones later.

BTW, the 30% is from the bow to stern or up to the rudder?

Thanks for the help,

Prop is a tad large for 2000Kv on 4S.

my pursuit is 0 degrees strut, batteries like yours beside the motor, trim tabs nutral and a m445 prop...no blowovers and about 50 mph with 4 cell

your cg is from the back of the hull foward ( stern to bow)
