          Looks fast, but completely out of control. Nowhere near trimmed out or stable

                    Hope you have a better place to run! Seems kinda pointless when you can't pull the trigger for more than 3 seconds.
                    Would love to see it run where you can open it up and see what it really does!
                    Be interesting to see how long the hull survives at that speed.
                    If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

                                Thats a sick boat there Random...............sounds mean and spooky in the vid with the echos. Are you running two 4s packs or one? I'm asking cuz thats ALOT of prop for a T180 to handle with a 4082 2200kv...............they like to premature LVC as most know. I bet on a long stretch your boat would gps at 58-60 mph..............nice ride!!
