Proboat Veles 29 Hits 92mph & Full Setup Inside & Out - SMC SRD - FE Rc Boat Speed Run

[@ebandcamp]

Full size boats used to have holes across the risers of the stepped hull with ducted air vented in from the top off the boat molded within the fiberglass or whatever . It would make foam ( water / air ) under the steps at speed rather than the straight water dragging it down . Less water more fasterer! Always wanted to try that modification . Used to love this hobby can’t afford it any more and getting to physical for my old age anyway . Thanx for doing this stuff .

[@IRONCLADRC]

It's definitely an expensive hobby to be in, ask my wife! 😆 BG4L

Ahhh so thats was the SSS!! Wow found its place there. So glad I can be a part of the speed record brother!! Have my little 16” build done now!! It goes so good!! Surprized me!

Ah finally you’re using hockey tape! Was going to suggest that after looking at the duct tape you are using, been using hockey tape for the last 17yrs. just recently I started reusing the tape every time I remove my hatch used to throw away each time I open my hatch, then I ran out of tape at my local lake, so what I do now is to layout the strips of tape on the deck and hatch , so I now can reuse my tape all day when I run, 2 sonicwake v1 _v2 a shockwave 36 and a pulse 32 all modified with a TFL princess.

Wonder what my speeds will be with the Leo 4082, 2200kv 6S, 180A esc, 45mm 3 blade prop.. Never had something to measure with, but it is fast for sure, faster than the boat likes (it wants to torque roll allot on acceleration, so it needs work) But congratulation on 92 mph! I am not even close! (one of the error i had last run, was that my stinger had rised, so it pushed the nose up allot, will fix that for the next run and try again)
