So you ran the T500 motor, but which Kv specifically? You mean T600 also fits?
135* is good!

No I have not run any of them yet, I see what stock does first.
And then I see what I can mod to make it work better and handle better.
Then more motor may be.
And the t600 is a monster, That my go in my 36" shockwave.Comment

Ok up date, Water was 45f and ran on a 3s1p 30c 4500mah pack and got 8 minutes run GPS AT 28 MPH.Originally posted by tlandauer View Post
All temps were good and temp at the motor mount clamp was 115 f getting better.
So if modded with a water cooled mount it should be a really cool running setup.Comment

That sounds great! The temp is really good now, 115 at motor mount clamp is nothing!

I gave him links to hear when he first got the P1 hull on 3/22/12 to make it easy for him,

I do not think he sees or reads to well.

Lenny I did not look though all the links, sorry did so tonite. I like how your boat handles with the off set rudder. I will be putting my boat together soon waiting on a stock out drive to get here. I am going to add some fiberglass to strengthen the hull. I bought some turn fins off of ebay.Comment

Hi Lenny, how is everything? I got so hopelessly side tracked with my Pursuit which has a stubborn water problem coming up the stuffing tube. I am just about to give up today since I tried every imaginary ways, it's jinxed like there is a pump sucking water up. I miss my P1!

It could be better, But it could be worse.Originally posted by tlandauer View Post Hi Lenny, how is everything?

The Pursuit you have, Was that Blackjacks ?
Love my p1, But still need to work on a stronger hatch and better seal for it.Comment

Yes, I got it from him, at first it was running bone dry, no problem after I put a silicone fuel tube, but then I needed to use Kintec flex cable, and the problem started. It has a 2.25 inch shaft, standard I was told, since the boat has a stinger. Original shaft was shorter and was told it was an AQ product. Had to change since it was no longer holding up. Anyway, I put all kinds of tubing to seal it but water still comes in. The boat runs well, I used m545 prop and I get 47mph. Leo 4082, 2200 Kv, Seaking 180 a ESC, 4s2p . Temp is all good. I suppose I could run the boat a bit drier still, but now it is very stable and doesn't mind chops. I guess it was a good learning experience as I learned to adjust tirm tabs and stinger angles. I am reluctant to post anything because it is so silly.
P1 is really a pleasure, will run again when time permits.Too many boats, not enough time...Comment

Well, I decided to ask in the FE Questions sections anyway, what the heck...Too many boats, not enough time...Comment

Hi Lenny I am getting ready to mount my turn fins on my Kos, how much of an angle do I need of them and how much of the fin goes into the water? The fins are 67mm in length. I bought the carbon fiber one's. Also I just bought the speedmaster stinger from Steve I will be getting it next week. I should have neve bought the stock stinger for it. But you learn by your mistakes ( I think).

You want the turn fin angle to match the hull bottom at the transom,
And ideally have it touch the water only in a turn for less drag in the straights.
Hears some pictures of mine.

Ok,
I have done some more testing,
With the modding of the inside setup,
The boat is very stable in the chop at high and low speeds.
Also I move the timing to 26.25*and temps went down and speed went up.
On a 3s I was getting 28 to 30mph, Now on same pack 35mph.
Not sure if run times are any better yet,
I will be testing 4s again and see what run time and speeds are next.
