Nice work !! Give yourself a pat on the Back !!

[wickedgmc]

looks good sir. Man I need to buy a new power system for my Syncron and get back on the water.

Know which motor, just need to decide on an esc

[SJFE]

Thanks Fellas the positive feedback makes it all worth while

...and I could have been there to witness that run

OK, this may sound a little corny,[ I spent too much time in the sixties] but I beleive that when we're building something new, & launching a "first run", It's like were ALL there in spirit, if not in person.

[Eyekandyboats]

how do you get the same speed with 2s1p as you do with 4s2p?
do you change the motor or what.

[calcagno45]

The first clip is on the set of 2s-1p 5000s The second is the 4s-2p 3300s

I'm thinking 2- 2s1p in a series to get the same as the 4s2p. I hope I'm right.

Awesome job Tom!! really flies!! And nice gutsy turning there. Big difference between the 2 clips.

No, literally. I was supposed to be there for the run. My work sent me right past SJFE's house on Tuesday. He hosted dinner that night. On Thursday, I was supposed to stop back by for this run, but Work had me bail @ 3:00am. I passed SJFE's house at about 4:30AM. Didn't wanna wake him at that time.

Thread about it here

Ok in reference to th 2s 4s question. I have a set of 4s packs I run in parallel and a set of 2s packs I run in series. That is where it gets confusing. Both are considered 4s-2p...not quite sure why.

[txboatpilot]

Looks great!! I am happy for you SJFE.... Very nice cheap power system, seems to work well... Where did you get the 4S 3300 30C lipos?

[SJFE]

Typo 25c bought them from dooz.

[properchopper]

Thanks man . I am learning how to drive it all over again. You will see in clip 2 I am growing a bigger set....lol

Awlright Tom ! After watching the turns you were doing, I ran Drifter Blue today & got a little gutsier ! Got some 3/4 throttle turns in & then blew the driveshaft. Thanks for the inspiration , I needed that !!

[SJFE]

Kewl beans brother. Now fix that shaft and give it hell again. I am thinking if I had a skeg strut I wouldent have to chop the throttle in order to set the sponsens. With the Feigao 9XL @ 38mph I was able to hold it wind open and completely turn it in about a 30 foot radius. @ almost 50 the rudder don't seem to get a good bite. I will be out again Sunday running. With some cg ajustment I may be able to hold it. I'd like to try my S&B X4403blade also.

[robby76]

Excellent run and what a very "inexpensive" power system.
you made mention of a skeg strut...which skeg strut would you choose/reccomend?

I don't know if this would interface with your hardware, but if you want it it's yours
