Miss Attitude 88 mph run

[Ub Hauled]

You have been running a Hydra 120 all this time? Well... I am surprised it lasted this long!
Hydra 240 man, at least!

[Gary]

No .....look more closely at the burnt up vid.Half the hydra is what your looking at. the other half is there too. .......240 !! She went up in flames real good this time LOL !!!!!!

Good job Given the off-camera noise at the end of the video, with the powers vested in me I hereby appoint you honorary membership in the Speed Pond Longitudinal Acceleration Team [SPLAT]

[Gary]

Thank you. I said i would stop at nothing until i saw that speed . Now i can take a break for a while.The thing is as soon as i go faster she blows over and now i have to adjust for 100+ mph. As soon as its dialed in for 100 and stays on the water then i will go for 105 .what? !!!! but first i need two good back to back long runs at 100 before i can move on. I tell you though the boat is taking a beating real hard...now the motor rips out when it crashes!!!!! Im glad i have a back up hull LOL . This is GREAT STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for everyones help. The best advise i ever got was from Fluid and especially UB Hauled for pre heating the batteries..makes a big diference in speeds!!!!1

I see it now... that was a good burn, welcome to Beyond Unrecognizable Recognition Nationwise (BURN) club... am I stretching it now? LOL
On that same note, take a look at what I did to this poor CC 110HV

[Chris Harris]

What kind of hull and how many cells?

Chris

[Ub Hauled]

If you asking me Chris, it was an Aeromarine 1/8 scale Hydro on 10s, 1527/1.5Y w/ a 447 prop on... the run lasted 10 seconds. It was running loose and pretty... and then... no response.

Man, it's hard to find good cheap child labor for videography at 5:45am, eh?

[Ub Hauled]

The way kids are these days it's hard to find any help from them...
LOL

[Gary]

Yes indeed. I used to get really good video when it ran alittle slower but now i dont no what the problem is. No one tracks it through the camera they track it looking at it and POINTING the camera. I will get this right soon LOL i swear!!!!! Ub hauled nice melt down!!!!!!!! I think the worst part is the stench afterwards that wont come off your hands!!!

[Ub Hauled]

yes, the smell ins something unforgetable.

[Gary]

Tryin for 105mph this weekend if the weather holds. I added more wieght up front so hopefully she stays down. It got real cold here though all of a sudden...like 45 degrees so it will be tough to keep the batteries warm.

[Gary]

God #$%@ it...... the Hydra crapped out. It worked perfect last outing and when i tested everything before going to lake again it would not arm so i have to wait for a replacement. I either get 20-30 runs or 2-4 depending on the ESC's mood. #@#$$@#%%@@$^*)%#@!@$ AAAAAHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gary, there's a lot of us pullin' for you - not a lot of people have the stones to go where you're going. There's obviously lots of frustration pushing the envelope out there in " Edge City" Keep the faith, Bro ! [ & Yup, I too am waiting for a replacement Hydra that curiously gave up the ghost rather unexpectedly ]
