    A dual brushless mono? That would be interesting.

        Dual setups do not work in monos at all.

          Just buy the hull from the company they import from and drop in a big single of 5s for some big speeds

            Is the KOS hull just a HOTR cat?

              Rumdog, I don't think it is..
              I had a EKOS and it did not look like one to me

                Also really Wish Venom had not taken there Excite hydro and basically copied the Vortex Hydro design.

                IMO, People that want a Brushless ready hydro, are looking for (atleast) a 25" Hull...22" ...Really? WTF.

                Venom would had touched my heart with a 4s 30-32" Brushless RTR Hydro.

                I like building hulls, but also really enjoy building and modding the RTR's as well.

                  I'm pretty sure it's the exact same hull as the delta. IMO that hull rocks. I built one and though it's small, iy would easily outperform a ul-1. No chine walk at all super stable and FAST!!

                      very possible it is the same hull and they put their name on it
                      from what I know they don't build much of anything, just relabel it

                        Well either way I run my boats in the ocean..mostly in harbor channel bays where the water is glassy all the time on normal days..and whale slick on no wind days...a lil bit harder to keep clean on metal parts but WD-40 mixed with fresh water thru the water cooling lines and johnsons/evinrude blue grease on all shafts works amazingly..to me thats the trut testing ground. Lakes are awesome but the ocean where most of the full size mono's and Cats run is almost sick...which is why I like the KOS's cause you can adjust the props to keep the bow up or down depending on the water conditions...

                          We moved to Rathdrum into a larger facility. We do test out at that lake and just call it Lake Bardinay since thats the name of the restaurant there. Its actually a CDA city park and yes Riverstone is the name of the mall complex.
                          In the summer we plan to run boats there and try to organize something with the local hobby shop. We run electrics mostly, gas boats bug the restaurant.
                          We dont announce boat testing but if we are going to run for fun there I could shoot you an email.

                                I believe Jeff Wohlt was gearing up to sell the EKOS flex shafts. Give him a pm.
