    Besides the small x642 lol, what do you guys think Bout strapping this to the back of a cheetah hull? I have the 1527 2d 1150kv NEU in my hands now and a mount coming.... Getting ready to order hardware and this comes up.... Any thoughts?

    If not what hardware recommendations do you have?

    I like the cooling lines coming from each rider thought as I wouldn't have to add a aux pickup, and the NEU 1527 ought not care (vt lingo) about the extra drag from the extra rudder...?
    It's not a 642, it's a 462. It's also requires a prop with a 1/4" hole so smaller props would be hard to use unless you switched shafts to a step down. Still, it's a great deal.

    I would think the skeg strut and a rudder would be almost the same as dual rudder, I've got a twin motor cheetah with regular strut and rudder, it runs like it's on rails https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWlC...4Q-xrOOtP2C-8w

    My boy has one on his Cheetah and has had it on there for a while, same duel rudder set up and his is running really well. It looks nice but not sure it's necessary. To each his own!

    I see you're running a skeg strut though.... That's probably helping the stability some over just a standard strut single rudder correct? Looks very nice btw... What motor are you running? How's it working?
