Thanks srislash
The Zonda is up an running now,and both escs are working as they should.
I used a ubec to power the programe box and it worked .

Just telling you the intent. The first one from the mold belongs to one of our club members. Team driver for FC. It was designed to race in P Offshore which is 4s.

12s is probably going to explode if it stuffs. You are certainly free to do as you please with it though.

Cant wait to see this one, that's going to fly as well Tim nice setup!

I just seen a sneak peak at my Fantasm. All I can say is, I'm very pleased. And Steve can sure paint.

Theres no max legal length at my club LOL
and to be fair, i have not seen one single Cheetah setup on 4s, all that i have seen are running 6s2p I ran it on 6s1p and it runs flat and ploughs,

[T.S.Davis]

Its floats ok its the same weight as a 6s2p setup thats what most people run
Tiny Cheetah?

It was designed for 4s. That's why it's only 34". Max legal length for racing 4s. There's no need for more.

My setup is a TP 4092 980Kv with a FC 16s/300a. Sport running 8s, saw runs on 10s.

When I build my cheetah this fall the setup in it so far, Sirius 1717 1580kv, FC 16s/300a. 5s for sport, 6s speed runs.

On my fantasm, I just gave steve some idea's on paint, and told him the design was totally up to him. By looking at his other paint jobs it should look killer. And I'm sure he could come up with a way better paint design than I ever could.

......um why are you putting 12s in a little tiny Cheetah hull? Does it float?

Hi Matt
No worries your first in line if I do!but don't hold your breath on the Cheetah
It's all ready now for a 12s run just bench tested tonight, all is looking good I'm more temped to sell the Zonda if we can't sort the escs out I spent way way to much on FC escs, shipping them back to US and HK I do miss my monos
you will have to give me a ring sometime .
Yours sound like fun, how was your run time on 9s?

[Mattwarner]

Sam, sell me your cheetah!!

I am running 9s on my 46" mono with a 740kv 5692 leo and an X457 and its easily the fastest boat ive owned, on 12s its going to be awesome!!

Thats going to look the nuts for sure! some folk are born talented and from what i have seen Steve is one of them.
Whats the setup going to be?

My setup is a TP 4092 980Kv with a FC 16s/300a. Sport running 8s, saw runs on 10s.

No usb link, but i have a ubec and rx pack thisit did cross my mind but i would need some advise dont want to blow the other one

[srislash]

Do you have the USB link? We may be able to figure something out.I have to go to work but I can help you tonight.I got a couple of ideas. Maybe a RX pack in there to replace the one BEC.For programming.

[sampit]

Ye both are set, but i think one esc may have the new firmwear and the other the old, this maybe why i cant get them both to fire up at the same time
i tried to check if both reverse setting where on, that when i found the problem.
I should have set it up to run each motor on it own 4s lipos, but i thought it would be better to parrellel the escs and packs.
