Artist lake, middle island NY

[Linewbie]

My first time into R/C boating is upon me. My new Pro Marine arrived earlier in the week, I just ordered a charger, and now I've got to get squared away with a few lipos, and some apparent soldering, and I should be seeing you guys down there any weekend now!!! I'll be the guy with the upside down speedster in the middle of the lake....

No problem I have a tug boat with a PVC rig set up for recovery

[Linewbie]

I might have to take you up on that Newboater, thanks.

Ran 6s there then shredded the prop

what did you shred the prop on??

[Bigford]

Just more power then the stock prop could handle LOL
Was waiting on a new brass one

[Newboater]

If you get the prop I'll see you down there this Sunday 5/14.

[Bigford]

Got the prop. I'll be there at 8am

[Bigford]

Newboater and his wife were there to save the day!!!
Thank you both


The flip is still under investigation Newboaters battery mounts broke loose and I turned turtle. ...
The 6s run netted me 56.4mph

Someone else with a rescue boat is my best friend at the lake!

[Bigford]

Always make nice with the rescue crew!!!

I just left the small lake in Smithtown on Maple Ave. Close to my house but crappy to get out. Very shallow at the shore line. Maiden voyage of my Pro Marine. Only set up at 3s as Im waiting for an adapter to hook them up in series. Found a decent cog though, so it was a sucessful day. I did notice its taking on water from somewhere, so thats going to need some attention. See you guys next time.

Bigford you are welcome for the rescues, no problem at all. Momma loves her tug boat!

Here is a video of the TFL princess on 6s with a 645 prop out of the hole performance is much better but, there may be some issues with the Raider 150 ESC. It seems to surge power at times and is difficult to reset throttle calibration. I bought it used so that maybe why it was for sale after being used once. Still unsure at this time. Speed was 40.6
