She's running awesome! Love how the geese are just chilling, watching your runs.

[@bigboyrc25]

Thanks for this video! I couldn’t get my new Hydra to program but I forgot a step thank to your video for saving me. 😊

[@IRONCLADRC]

Good luck with the maiden. It's an absolute animal of a speed control

[@bigboyrc25]

@@IRONCLADRC Thank you brother! I just got done building my m40 raider and I chose the Hydra to power it after all your success with this esc.

[@mildtowildrc7343]

Nice video,got the power👍Can’t wait to see it in the Blackjack!

[@IRONCLADRC]

Blackjack42 vid should be out Sunday hopefully

Now you got to get one of them Castle Motors to go with that mamba

Great Video 💯 looking forward to the Soldering Video👍

What a beast, unrelated but just got my cooling jacket for my impulse 32 from oxidean wow fast shipping wasn't expected till Monday arrived early got it Friday , today,. Boat day after lawn gets mowed Saturday. I just hope that solves my cooling leak I blow through the line and you can hear air escaping from the cooling jacket tried to lube the seals but it still leaks just not as bad so new install. Peace

[@EDCandLace]

That is brutal power in a smallish FE mono.

That thing is hauling prop Son, love the videos BIG B

[@russsmith9042]

I knew from the tone of your voice in the very beginning of this video and put a smile on my face it was going to be a good one that thing's stupid man I got to get that ESC that's all it is to it! You can tell that ESC is letting it flow that motor is going oh my God it's getting all the power it wants and then some! Imagine what it's going to do when you throw that TP motor on that ESC I don't know what's going to happen you might snap the blades off the prop cuz when you stab the throttle that thing I mean it's just about jumping completely out of the water every time the roost is unreal. Throw that tp4050 on that ESC and let the Ridiculousness begin. You going to have to tone it down some it's going to torque roll that boat completely over you'll be snapping Flex cables and stuff. That is sweet

[@55steviegreene]

That ESC got me drooling. I want to put one on my V2

[@IRONCLADRC]

I thought about throwing the hydra in the sonicwake instead of the deltaforce for testing.. Deltaforce had more room to work than the v2

[@55steviegreene]

@@IRONCLADRC Yeah its tight fit. Looks like a Bad ass ESC

[@kh40yr]

So, Castle wants you to plug in the Aux wire into 3 or 4 channel. Seems that the Aux wire is the power feed wire for the bec/esc and the throt wire is just that, a stand alone signal for throttle. They don't talk to much about it in the startup guide, even on the offroad Mamba guide. all it says is "adjustable on the fly channel" and that IT MUST be plugged in. Been running Castle gear for years, just never had a Mamba. Love their 6.5mm connectors,,just don't use the green bullet holder that comes with the 3 pack. Make indifferent length batt wires and just use the bullets with a heat shrink overlay. You want that connector to be as tight as it can be, and the Castle 6.5's are damn tight.

[@peteroosterhoff8850]

Got some power flowing now. I will try castle x8s with 2000kv 4082 (6s) and 1650kv (8s) hopefully shortly. Will make watercooling on esc myself. But this i really a beautifull esc. You could probably read some interesting data now also. Now we will wait for another motor of the bj... Keep en comming man!

[@IRONCLADRC]

That's the fun part of the hobby, modifying & making custom built components for your boats.... that's really what got me into the rc boat hobby, building full custom wood boats and all the hardware...

[@peteroosterhoff8850]

@@IRONCLADRC yes sir. You can put some off your own creativity in looks, making/altering parts and learn things also. Did you know the rating is only 180a from xlx..? Speaking about conservative. But no cutt-outs, low temps, the limiting factor now will be the battery or motor... Only hope they get a bit cheaper. Think it will sell around +400€ in Europe. That's still allot off money..

[@bigboyrc25]

Awesome bro!

[@jamesatkinson7517]

I am looking forward to seeing this run at the speed run spot

[@sjorswouda6865]

You've build a dragster mono. Nice ! Would have duplicated it in carbon and gained halve a pound but that's me...... O, and use water cooled motor mounts ? I've noticed you rarely do. Please keep the vids coming !

[@IRONCLADRC]

That xlx2 is insane the rocket 4082 just doesn't do the xlx2 much justice

[@jamesatkinson7517]

I am hoping you can help My 33” .deltaforce is chine walking at full speed. I have tried a few setting like strut position and 2 and 3 blade props Getting rid of play in the steering joints and rudder and turn fin angles. I move the motor forward now to make it easier to re-grease the flex cable and still from 55 to 60 it is a flip waiting to happen. The best so far is 60 mph but if it wasn’t so out of control it would get more speed. My best setting is the strut up a few millimetres at the prop end and a 3 blade CNC 4514 prop with a l 5s 5 amp 100 c lipo,the motor is an outrunner that can run 6s 1750 kv 100 amp so 60 mph not bad for 5 s only using a 150 a flycolor but it flips on the slightest ripples from its own wake if at full speed and chime walking. So I put a flood chamber in it and 2 pack urethane in the nose so it can self right and if it loses it’s lid the foam stops it sinking. So I am after things to try to stop the chime walking.

[@IRONCLADRC]

Try some positive angle (up angle) it'll settle the stern at speed

[@jamesatkinson7517]

@@IRONCLADRC I have got 2 mm now do you mean more than that ?

Hi Iron. I'm sorry for the question, but could you help me with the list of items I should buy at offshore electronics for the hull delta force 35. I'm newbie to the world of radio control boats, which fascinates me. I have been in the world of radio control cars for 30 years. From Ecuador, greetings.

This ESC might be the answer for my V2. I installed the spektrum 160 right off the bat before first run and it works great with the stock prop but when I try and run the Oxidean high rake yellow prop or ABC 1714 she has a power cut right at full throttle. $200.00 bucks for the Spektrum I'm not happy for a few bucks more I could have had the XLX2.

I think I figured it out. Im going to unplug 2 sparkplugs on my wifes car and tell her 2 upgraded Hydra coil packs is the best way to fix it. Now I just need Horizon to sell car parts for this to work.. 🤣

They must be out of stock at the moment, there called square packs for speed and drag guys

Do you have reverse enabled on your Hydra? What setting do you have your Hydra setup on?

He said “big nipples”, got my attention… but I digress. Hey Big B, that boats an animal. I guess it’s true what they say you can’t have enough amps, one more way to keep temps down. Are you going to put that ESC in the BJ42 ? Looks like you might have room to motor up and prop up with that monster ESC. Another great video BG4L!

Yea man for sure. Hydra is going in the blackjack and the ztw is permanently going in the DF35

[@zeeek1]

The marketing hype for drag cells in hilarious. All they do is put cells in parallel to get the high C rating. FE boat racers have been running 2P setups for a decade or more. Just saying that they are hype is all when you can achieve the same result without the high $$$ of drag packs.

[@IRONCLADRC]

You know your probably right bit the srd packs have been breaking speed run records left and right here lately

[@zeeek1]

@@IRONCLADRC Where is that? I know people that JUST do SAW racing and they would be using packs like Roaring top and certain Dinogy cells.
