Sprintcat 21

[Heaving Earth]

I've been considering a new project. Has anyone built one of these things? The specs say its exactly the same length and width of a mean machine. What's the difference? Would this make a good twin? Thanks

I did try the search and didn't come up with anything btw.

I have. They run real good. I got the turbine cowl and modded it. Cut the front off, and glassed it to the hull, and ssealed the turbine. Let me find you a link dood

No kiddin huh?
I've noticed they now have the fe version with a different cowl. No modding necessary

it's the same bottom different top and cowl i wouldn't reccomend a twin in this boat unless you are doing a twin with spec motors and I would get the mean machine becasue it's much easier to work on inside. The Mini avenger is 36" and much better suited for twins could do a twin 6 cell or 4 cell setup. With anything from 2200Kv leopards or Neu's to Neu 1527/1Y's!!!! Hmmmm now you got me thinkin about doin one of these!!!!! maybe twin 1521/1.5D's on 4S!!! hmmmmm decisions decisions!!!

Well I already have an mm. I was thinking twin ul1 motors or the motley 1800 motors.

It would be real hard fitting twins in this hull!

[madmikepags]

that hull will work well with just 1 ul1 motor, or any spec motor. I don't know if ur planning on racing it or just sport running, if racing you cant use twins in any of the P-lim classes.

Well, what difference is the 21 from the mean machine other than looks? The larger Sprintcat has a different hull bottom than the mm I think...? Does it not scale down well? If I were to build one as a single it would have a 1515 or larger for sure, but if the bottom is the same as my mm it doesn't really interest me.

According to my conversation with Remy, the bottoms are identical between the MM and the SC21. Looks and aerodynamics are different. The bottoms of the MM and SC60/80 are very similar. The SC60/80 has a lifting strake on the bottom, the MM does not - because there is not room for one.

Ok, so will the Sprintcat handle better than my mm? What role does aerodynamics play exactly here?
