    I'm thinking of ditchin the 540XL motor idea and going Medusa..
    any suggestions on what Medusa to use with 4s and 6s ?
    I'm hearing more and more great reports with the Medusa motors..

    it seams very tight to the water, not sure if this is how is should run?
    9" is just about right for that boat...I use 9 1/2"
    but are you balancing it properly?....I measure off the transome towards the front of the boat and put a mark at 9" (in your casr) in the side of the boat...I use the table edge and drab the transome towards me 9 1/2" ..the boat must balance or teeter totter at the measuring point...just shift the batteries forward or backwords to get it to balance on the mark you made......instead of a table edge you can use something perfectley round like a broom stick centered on the mark you made

    hope this helps....if you have it balanced perfect it should ride just right
