        I did a little bending at the tips and that's really about it. My temps are starting to get up there now. Tomorrow I'm going to do a 445 and 545 but really start bending the last third of the blade by a decent amount and see what happens.

          Getting perilously close to 70! Pretty amazing gains just massaging these props. Who needs 6S??? Looking forward to see what you get with this next set of props.

            I'm having fun with it, like Kfxguy said I could easily throw a bunch of power to it, but I really want to see what I can get out of this thing with average 4s Lipos. I took this week off from the office to make sure I had ample time to get this thing to 70 lol. I made a couple small adjustments and I'm heading to the pond shortly.

              Well I just got back. The winds where blowing but the water was relatively calm. I could only get it between 64-65mph. Little disappointing.

                    when the time comes and your looking to buy more batteries, try a set of revoletrix. they are cheap and takes only about 5 days to get them. youll pick up mph. i couldnt get into the 90's until i used them. i think they were worth 5mph over my spc 6500mah 65c packs.

                      For sure, I think I'm done buying batts for the Revolt. I'm getting ready to start slowly piecing together my CF Daytona twin for a winter project. I will be buying the revo's for it come spring.

                        This thread is making me want to build a v hull about this size to hit 70 lol. Guess I have to finish the current projects first! I have two brand new carbon daytona hulls already on the way to me btw.....I'm gonna see what I can do with them. This hobby is addictive and expensive!

                          It is addictive! Yup my Daytona should be here tomorrow. Then I'm going to take my time and reinforce this thing with coremat and CF, I want it to be bulletproof. I'm aiming for triple digits

                              NICE! look forward to watching another one of your builds, I've learned a lot watching you build and tweak that Rivercat.
