Took her on the maiden voyage today. I Think I don't have the CG correct. I will try again with the battery moved forward a little.

Feiago 380 7s 2s 2650 x432 detongued and back cut. Yeah I did have to fish it out. I had to fish it out on every run but the one in the video below. Sorry for the camera work. My cameraman is 11. I guess I need to tweak it a little to keep it from getting upset coming out of the corners. I will mess with the CG to see if I can correct it. Any JAE experts, I am open to suggestions.

You want 60% of the weight on the sponsons and 40% on the ski.
Can you post some pics?
