Battery & Prop Test 48" Super SonicWake

[@waynesbutler7834]

Knowing how big the 42 is its crazy in a good way the size difference, even though i am not a fan of self righting boats because of how they sit lop sided in the water initially you get a real sense how massive the 48 SonicWake really is. Amazing work Proboat and you BigB for showing the best at what this boat can do.

[@nicholasstephey8475]

As always a pleasure to watch, and a great attitude

[@mcsbikelife3829]

Just got mine today !!!! First run tonight!!! I’m gonna try the 5016 3 blade and a few abc props I just got in .

[@madmaxximus1234]

Supper cool to see the difference between props.👍🤙

[@SaltCreep45]

Big B BIG B IRONCLAD RC !!! I just got mine at Miami Beach waited 6 Weeks Finally Got It

[@IRONCLADRC]

LET'S GO! GOOD LUCK WITH THE MAIDEN.

[@scaleworksRC]

Sweet! Very cool episode and learned a few things along the way ..she was not happy with that last prop, but those 3 blades sound awesome😆

[@TheRicsta]

Nice work on the props , off shore , are the best just shipping to Australia sucks

[@marxboatworx]

OSE 10 days to Brisbane.. not bad!

[@minochercowasjee]

Big B , you got a newbie thinking . CG is one thing . I think if you put longer trim tab , this will hold the boat down . Then you can blast it with a new ESC and your big prop . Let’s try that 👏👏

[@MartinSnook]

, so what would the boat handle like with long shaft and a decent prop , just say I'm new here 😅

[@peteroosterhoff8850]

This run nicely showed that at 60mph even a big boat will blow over... Man, you already spend half a boat on props...

[@mcsbikelife3829]

As big as it is just not a big speed boat !! I’m fine bashing it around in the 50s !!!! I want speed runs I’ll get bj out !!! Another great vid big b

[@dennismatovich8411]

Great job with the props. Im thinking the 1350kv motor with the stock prop would be a handful.

[@vincentvassallo3843]

No, a slower/bigger motor with 800 Kv and a 55-60mm P/D would be better. This boat need more battery weight , better stability and run time... Or leave it as it is, 50mph is a good speed.

[@Lussuosoclothing]

Dasabota prop 67 mph

[@PatriotBrad]

Is it the lack of blade area on that second prop that wont get it on plane?

[@IRONCLADRC]

I believe your right, lack of blade area and a couple mm in diameter

[@keven8047]

I've got horrible news... remember me asking you recently on a video why mine don't have the nylon washer like the 36 and you explained the 48s design? I finally took my 48 out yesterday. Without 3 min it stopped turning left hardly at all. I didn't think about the rudder and just thought my trim must be off on my new dx5 pro. Ended up going a good ways trying to get it to turn and come back. Gave more throttle trying to get it to turn and hit a wooden post sticking out of the water. Finally got it back with about a 5 inch Crack down the left side and a dent right in front of that and another dent toward the back. I'm so disgusted. Rudder came up just from the water resistance. Wish I'd known to torque it down TIGHT! I thought it was tight enough. Heart breaking!!! Sure wish they'd used the nylon set up on it. From the video I saw of your cracked 36 I think it was, I just threw away like $700. I'm gonna try to fix the Crack. Hope it works but doesn't look promising.

[@jarrettbarnes9438]

just wondering how long usually takes to get props from oxydean? purchased some to try over a week ago and still nothing even shipped???? $$$gone but no props?? OSE gets them to me in about 3 days! love those guys. my best prop so far was h52 from ose ran warm though.

[@IRONCLADRC]

Usually about a week or so, I'm east coast, Oxidean is on the west coast

[@jarrettbarnes9438]

I'm in the middle... lol Michigan. but just thought maybe they went AWOL or are on vacation? as not even shipped? but OSE gets stuff here super fast. just keep waiting and trying what I got but thinking maybe have to go higher pitch but keep diameter 48 to 50 range to keep temps down.

[@jaycevessier7554]

Idk, I think that boat is about capped at around 62 on stock power. Cant wait to see what your crazy ass does haha

[@markgambetta1704]

Do you think HVC batteries (charged at 4.20 ) work better than the standard Lipo‘s at 4.20 if you match up the MAH, maybe do a comparison that would be cool. Thanks again for the great videos

[@IRONCLADRC]

I'll do a test one day with the same size and capacity charged to 420.

[@asiringoringo1]

OSE or TFL need to make adjustable stinger for super sonicwake 48 just like they made adjustable stinger for sonicwake 36 v2

[@mad_lizard]

The TFL adjustable stinger for the sonic V2 conversion was actually a creation I came up with. To adapt the TFL stinger to the sonic. Then recently I passed along the design to OSE with a partnership for them to make and to the general public. Super sonic 48 would benefit probably from an adjustable stinger.

[@asiringoringo1]

@@mad_lizard you need to design for this boat man, I like the way tfl stinger on sonicwake ,

[@mad_lizard]

@@asiringoringo1 I am planning the works I will be getting the sonic 48 soon to be able to start designing some new custom upgrades and my own personal testing.

[@asiringoringo1]

@@mad_lizard I hope your better than mine , mine can’t reach 50mph , always stuck 40mph , even with castle xlx2 hydra stock motor only got 42 mph

[@mad_lizard]

@@asiringoringo1 I will find out soon. I have a couple different ideas. What to try. First to get the boat to smooth out from bouncing so much. Too dry and trying a longer trim tabs 2 1/2 - 3 longer ones and few different propellers as well. Trim tabs, battery trays and possible stinger is my staring goal to focus on

[@keven8047]

Big b can you help me about my cracked boat?

How can I help? Look me up on Facebook, send photos there

Why does rc boats power cut?

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Heat and amp draw and voltage drop

[@TheRicsta]

Hey big B , are all your lakes salt water , I never run in salt water ever

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

I’m pretty sure he runs in salt here. Park pond maybe not

[@waynesbutler7834]

Its my understanding he is from North Carolina, the speed run spot is part of the New River which feeds the ocean so as BigB points out in many of his vids that the tides create brackish water but also alligators in many water ways in the state.

[@IRONCLADRC]

"Speedrun spot" is brackish water mostly frest 80% of the time.

[@MikeGray-ct6hb]

Funny how u always hold your breath when you check the speed haha.......drum roll pls....51 😔

[@PatriotBrad]

55.9mm diameter for those who dont know what abc 2218means in metric!

[@IRONCLADRC]

It measured 54mm actual size.

[@Hogan-m3w]

boat needs a 1/4 flex shaft and like 2514/2515 or something. I said weeks ago high 50's low 60's. toot my horn here.

[@mad_lizard]

The boat does have a 1/4 cable with a 3/16 step down for 3/16 bore props. I do think the same for Props in a diameter range
