I found the perfect settings for the M41 traxxas boat. But things went wrong...

Great slow mo's, and nicely set, 😎👍 Unlucky breakages 😥 yet lucky with that battery you didn't watch it float back burning, just to sink a meter out😱 The RC Gods were looking after you there! 🤣

[@HappyDude1]

Thank you 😁 boats are so cool in slow mo 😛 and yeah it could be worse. Thank god the boat did not burn to a crisp

[@BunyipnAbout]

Bloke you had that riding beautifully, always some trial & error. Remind me of my model boat days.

[@HappyDude1]

It was a lot of learning since nobody shows this how to do it on youtube 😄

[@chriscargill8140]

Dude,love the sound effects and Very informative on how to set the prop and the stabilizer thank you so much

[@HappyDude1]

Thx And i don't know if i used sound effects in this video 😅

[@chriscargill8140]

[@chriscargill8140]

Hey bud I used your settings on my M41 and that thing was like a rocket!!!!!!!it was handling really good the first time out with those settings it was totally awesome 👌 👏 👍

[@HappyDude1]

@chriscargill8140 Very nice Dude! You see, I'm just the best 😎

[@chriscargill8140]

I love the sound effects in this video!!!! so what was the final settings on the stabilizers....?.?????, That boat looks so beautiful on the water

[@MaramuresDualSport]

Cool video and testing! The way i see it, you need high C rating batteries, because the 6s system draws a lot of amps and the battery must be able to deliver that huge quantity of current. I would consider ditching the stupidly expensive LiPos from Traxxas and buy serious bats...and i recommend the Zeee batteries...i got an 100C bat and use it for 2 years already and it's like new, and for the M41 i got 2 3s 5200mAh 80C. The traxxas battery is super lame with 25C rating....that spec is not suitable for an application like the M41. Lucky it didn't burn out :). Cheers from Romania!

[@HappyDude1]

Thank you sir. And You have to know that traxxas batteries actually ar not that bad as it turns out and they dont lie about there c rating. Other companys attend to lie and just put a high number on there. I did some research 😁

[@MaramuresDualSport]

@@HappyDude1 i'm not saying that is not true in some cases, but surely not in the case of Zeee brand. They are overly tested by a lot of users that i personally know and they never had puffed up bats and if the battery is new, that's usually the answer: the C rating is too low for what the system needs to feed the motor and the battery is working in overdrive. Do some research for Zeee batteries and you'll see that they are truly a great product. I honestly have a 8000mAh 100C battery from them that i've used in my boats and traxxas slash 4wd that i raced a lot of times on track, without any puffing and had other batteries that puffed within 6 months of usage. And yeah, traxxas bats are insanely expensive. HAve a great day, my man! PS: counting the days until i get my M41 by the end of January. I'm gonna have that one painted purple by a friend who's an aerograph master :)). Peace !

@@MaramuresDualSport I will try some batteries out someday 😀 i know a boat asks a lot of power. I just bought everything from traxxas because i allready have a m41 and trx4 so its easy to use since i was new to rc. So far i'm not to happy with there customer support and thzre updates that break stuff.

@@HappyDude1I have those 100 c’s he is taking about and I’m seeing 68 mph with the hot racing copper prop.. I’m not even close to done trimming it out either! 68 is very flat/dry ride which is killing the speed

[@HappyDude1]

@@landaulgosto3596 Could you make a video with a gps tracker so i can see that speed 😀

Happy Dude 😏 Oh No FUCK ! Gold lol

[@michaelthibault557]

boats build up heat especially the batteries Hot racing makes a set of cooling plates

[@HappyDude1]

I know but Do they really work ?

[@michaelthibault557]

yes they do because they are water cooled

[@drendebe10]

Not a fan of lipo batteries

I hate them too
