The Voracity tuning thread

Important what's the amp draw on each . Could u run any of these on Stock e.s.c.

I'll put a data logging Esc in it. I'm purposely trying to over prop it to be honest. I'm testing an Esc for someone to test its limits.

I'll find out but I'd bet the 1914 would be safe. It's less prop than the m645

What timing are you running with that esc /
thanks

Ok, I just did some free mods and just realized the trim tabs were pouting a bit down and one more than the other. Explains why I had to trim the rudder a lot to the left. It's so close to 60 at this point, I'm pretty sure my few mods will put it in the 60's. Here what I did:

Sanded the ride area with 400 grit (paint is super super thin so keep that in mind if you do it....you will sand through in a couple of seconds)

Sharpened the rudder
Sharpened turn fins. One of mine had a slight gouge (my fault I'm sure) so I fixed that.


Charging batteries. Stay tuned.

Look great. Lot of excellent info in this thread already. Did those trim tabs and rudder match up to the stock mounting holes by chance?

Nope. Not even close. Lol. But at least I was able to hide the original holes easily.

This trip was a bust. I ran the wrong prop. Wasn't paying attention. Just had too much going on. Still ran high 50's. Post video later.

That's kind of what I expected to hear. Really awesome though!
