Ive had my Voracity for a few weeks now and I finally got some glass smooth water and did a top speed run. Im running 5400mah 75c X2...Im only getting 39.6mph! I tried a battery swap with the same results. Temps are good and the boat seems to be running great, but I expected closer to 50mph?!!?!?!? Thoughts ?

battery placement? drivedog gap? balanced and sharpened prop? prop size? strut position? trim tab position? A lot to be answered, a lot to be adjusted.Vac-U-Tug Jr (13mph) -
That seems to be a major misconception. For top speeds, you want a small chop on the surface, not glass flat. Glass flat presents more drag on the hull.Originally posted by robertm235 View PostComment

Need more info. Is the boat running wet? Probably plowing through the water.Comment

Don't laugh. I've done this multiple times. Make sure you didn't parallel two 3s packs instead of putting them in series.Noisy personComment

That seems a major misconception, I hear it all the time. Yet, most all the highest speed SAW records were set on pretty flat water. If your boat is faster on choppy water then it is set up too tight for smooth water.That seems to be a major misconception. For top speeds, you want a small chop on the surface, not glass flat. Glass flat presents more drag on the hull.
But what do I know, I've only set a couple dozen SAW records in both NAMBA and IMPBA....

I've made my fastest passes on flat water. So I agree.Originally posted by Fluid View Post32" carbon rivercat single 4s 102mph, 27” mini Rivercat 92mph, kbb34 91mph, jessej micro cat(too fast) wasComment
