Just shipped my origional ESC/Motor back to Traxxas

[dag-nabit]

I thought the same thing about the 4mm driveline too, that's why when i order the hull (when ever they are back in stock) i'm not gonna order the hardware kit for the boat, just the hull only. I have 3/16 drive shafts up the ying yang, i'll just order all the running gear probably from OSE. Since you have expirience with the Genesis hull, how well does it handle a little bit of chop? I won't be goin for blistering speeds, just a mild 7 cell/4s type set-up.

The little bit I got to run it (6s T180 Leopard 4082 X642) I was impressed with how fast it was and how stable, The only thing I noted was it was a bit skittish on the corners at higher speeds, and you had to be careful on the throttle with the big prop, it would lift the boat and spin it 360 degrees in the air if you punched it too hard.

I was still working on finding the best strut adjustment, so it may be possible to tame it down a bit.

I suspect on your proposed setup you will find it very stable.
