Watched the runs again, i do not see the fishtail from the water exiting from the the cooling tube. Somethings clogged or kinked. that should be shooting wayyy up! is the exit blocked? i see something black when its green tubing.

Big B you now have a super car of boats ! The BJ24 looks nice out there 👍 2 years ago if someone told you- you will one day be using a 400 amp esc, what would you have thought? Like no way man 400 that’s crazy but here you are hauling ass like a pro 👍 great video as usual. BGFL

[@ArcticRc]

Sorry. A bit out of topic. Will the New sonic wake handle 8cell on stock setup?? Love the Black jack but saving up for the new river jet you tested out. Many rivers here in the north of Norway.

[@IRONCLADRC]

No, sir, the stock SonicWake will not handle 8s! You'll need an esc upgrade for 8s power

Thats one nice setup big b🔥🔥🔥

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

Hey I think when we run higher voltage it actually will allow to run cooler . Usually won’t hold it open as much and I believe the amps can be less . Like with a/c when we run high voltage the amp draw is lower . Just learning some about boats I only own a swamp boat 🚤 but I wanted to get the pro jet boat , looks like your using here on salt water and that’s where I wanted to use so maybe I should just go with propeller boat. I do have plenty golf course ponds ect locally but I have canal in my yard I’d like to run off my dock

And get you another temp gun. I have the same one as a spare. I have a different hand held thats spot on and the one you're using is off by 10 degrees give or take. So it could be 10* cooler than you think.

[@dareckanderson9703]

Kingval 3660 1800 kv, what ESC should I run with this?? This will be a proboat recoil 2….. any turn Finn, strut, trim tabs, rudder recommendation are helpful also! Great channel keep it up. Kingval not purchased yet so throw me the whole recipe, lol…. Goose chaser!

[@IRONCLADRC]

2600-3000kv 3660 + 150a FC esc = fast

[@DevinArch]

I used be crazy about R/C boats back in my younger years (Traxxas Villain IV amongst others circa 2001🤘) I'm now revisiting the hobby via KZbin. SUUPER interesting that the internal hardware is no longer the limiting factor on speed. It's actually the hull / trim of the boat and the aerodynamic forces of air. Are there other hulls at the same size that could handle much faster than 92mph without going airborne?? Or submarine for that matter...?

Man, that thing flies. Good to finally see a BJ42 not hopping all across the water, acting like a kangaroo. One thing I would like to see...something I'm sure many people would like to see...is a real-world comparison pitting the Flier 400A ESC against the Castle Hydra XLX2.

I've been wanting to get one of these hulls for a build, your's has me itching even more to do it

[@jonhowland4985]

I don’t mean to speak out of turn, I’ve owned I rc boat, but wouldn’t it be better to run it around a little at just over idle to get some water to the vital stuff? Edit: Thanks, having just reread my comment I now see a clear advantage to bringing it straight in. You get to check peak temp. I was thinking long term where higher heat over a long time would obviously be worse than a short burst. 🍻

[@stevejackson3564]

How heavy is your boat. What is the small wire that's connected to one of the black connector. Is that boat plastic or fiberglass

[@IRONCLADRC]

Total weight with battery is 14.5 lbs

[@americantrucker2452]

Is that North East creek Park in Brynn Mar Jacksonville NC? I have the same boat and have been looking for a place to run it.

[@IRONCLADRC]

Yes sir, that the exact same place. Good place to run, especially if there aren't any fisherman, early morning is the best

[@darthgroot4006]

Great video!!! I would be careful at that park. There are two very large gators that are frequently seen at the park. A 13 and 8 footer. Stay safe!!

Hello 👋🏻 Big B , I’ve been waiting for your 12s BJ 42 build, I just got the Jetstream last Saturday and it should be a blast in the streams and rivers of Northern California. 🎉

[@IRONCLADRC]

You and me both, I have been working on the setup for a while now. You'll love the jetstream, it's a fun boat. BG4L

[@Fantaman900]

I live in the flat lands of the Netherlands the only white water I know is a little, but longish U shaped step down stream next to a dam. It saw a very nice NO walking sign just between the road and it. So I bet I will never be able to try my future jetstream there. Guess I have to build a ramp.

[@chevy4life203]

Do I sense a dual motor. With 2 of those ESCs? With 16s worth of batteries on each ESC? 🤔

[@jaygranzow3114]

⁠ I do run in salt water, but I have been having issues setting up boats, salt water getting into electronics, range issues for transmitter etc. I’m still working on an ideal setup. Time away from work, and the kids is a bit hard to come by sometimes…

[@Linoge279]

Thats really fast but your running a hot setup but nowaday motor are pretty much heavy duty. I've own that similar esc 10yrs ago in my 48" mono and setup for 20s (74V) with big 370kv 12kw TP motor and run for about 3 mins, all parts are cold as if Im not running at all. Now all my boats are in the store collecting dusts.

[@IRONCLADRC]

I have 2 different motors for this boat, I like the 1520kv on 8s, better than the 1400kv on 12s. Both motors are beast!

[@ericdelmeer]

I’ve a problem with the blackjack 42 It falls back in power after a second when pull full throttle. Sometimes at half throttle. When I build speed up slowly it goes better but still cuts off power for a second or so at the end with full throttle and power comes back direct after that. And so on. Dont know what the problem is. Battery packs are new. Have 2x 4s 100c 8000mah and 2x 4s 140c 5500mah Did reset and calibrate the esc with the new changed futaba receiver but didnt solve the problem. I use a futaba 4tpx transmitter with r304sb receiver Is it something with timing or lvc? Temps of motor esc and batteries and plugs are arround 35-40C (95-105F) so tha should be ok. Boat is new. Only used it about 3-4 times. It has the boatbitz trim tabs, cooling upgrade and prop upgrade. Strut and trimtabs are installed in line with the bottum of the boat as in your videos. Sort of flat neutral. So any help is welcome

[@IRONCLADRC]

What prop are you running? If the prop is to big for the electronics the esc will go into a lvc cut, because the prop is putting alot of load on the electronics causing voltage drop making the esc think it hit low voltage. Prop in combination with the overall weight of the boat, try Propping down a little bit, or you could try going down on your timing one

[@ericdelmeer]

The prop is a stage 2 prop from boatbitz that came with the cooling and trimtabs as a set. I believe its a 4814 (2 blade) It says proboat on it but no numbers. But when I messure the prop its 48mm. When it does a full sometimes speed is about 52-53mph gps But most of the times it cuts the power of when it goes fast. I will try the stock prop soon to see if that is the problem. Can the trimtabs and strut cause so much friction that it does a lvc too?

[@madmaxximus1234]

Sick big B!!👍🤙

[@martindsteel]

Can these be tuned up ie larger propeller to make them faster

[@IRONCLADRC]

Yes, guess it depends on the setup, you can prop up until the Temps tell you to stop..

[@bernidampfff]

More rpm = more Fun 😊 12 s 😍

[@ralphhondaman]

And to run a pack in parallel or series. The battery won't know the difference 😅 a system on 12s will require less amp draw then running on 8s. So seeing lower temps at higher voltage is possible if it's efficient.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

That’s what thought thanks for confirming, it’s same with a/c voltage

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

What do you think about rc boats and salt water , stay away from jet boats ? , of course have to be extra with water proofing and corrosion but is it feasible

[@ralphhondaman]

I don't see why it would be a issue if you keep it clean like you said. Keep water out of the inside. And flush the cooling system with fresh water after.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

@@ralphhondaman thanks just living on water everything erodes faster , have keep everything coated wd 40

@@RcPlayer-tt2vw I bet. Wd 40 would be good to use. Keep the hardware coated.

[@sjorswouda6865]

I've noticed you run rather short water jackets and no water cooled motor mount. Think 124 F on 8 S is somewhat steep........ Single set up always is demanding for the motor for it requires counter steering or asymetrical drive line set up. For me reasen enough to use twins. The TP 4070 CM is a peach as is your 42. Clean fit those water lines ! Extremely good looking hull all the way. Well done.

[@TwilightWolfSpirit]

Today boys, we will be running the new Pro Boat "On Steroids"... Getsum!

[@ralphhondaman]

Kv for Kv? If its true kv rating then regardless of the copper its should turn the same rpm per volt. You lost me on that. If it turns any different speed then the kv rating is wrong.

[@IRONCLADRC]

On paper yea, it should turn the same rpm, but real world is a whole different animal. Take a surpass rocket 4082 2000kv and a tppower 4060cn (4082) 2000kv.. Which motor is gonna be faster? The tppower motor will be! Everything the same, the only difference is brand. Copper in a motor makes a huge difference with a motors performance.. This is my opinion. I've tested lo lots of different motor over the years, just speaking from my own experiences.

[@ralphhondaman]

@IRONCLADRC ok I do get what you are saying. But if one motor turns faster then the other. Then they are not matching kv. Kv is rpm per volt. Say 1100kv is 1100kv. If it spins faster then that then its not 1100kv.

[@ralphhondaman]

@IRONCLADRC maybe you're thinking about more torque? Because if both are 2000kv then they both should spin the same speed. Torque will get you to speed faster. But then too you have to consider poles then. 4 pole 6 pole. 6 pole will turn rpm faster but less torque.

[@IRONCLADRC]

The key word in this argument is "should" in theory they "should" turn the same rpm per volt. They "should" have the same torque. If both motors are the same, the only difference is brand/material right. On paper like I said yea, but in a boat it's a different story. The point is that material, (copper,magnets) a brushless motor, is constructed from makes a huge difference torque, rpm, heat Dissipation etc. I've even gotten the same exact motor, and one motor be a consistent 3-5mph faster than the other... Same motor in every way, the manufacturer possibly used a different stock of materials in the build process, causing one to outperform the other. Just saying

[@ralphhondaman]

@IRONCLADRC what it comes down to is how efficient the motor is. They key is to find where the motor makes its best power. Adding volts to make it spin faster isn't always the best option because the motor because less efficient and more heat.

[@kellykuretich6366]

👍👍😎😎

[@jaycevessier7554]

Bruh I’m telling y’all, the whole problem with the 42 is it’s under powered that’s why it flips so bad. More power keeps the nose where you want it, DOWN. And pretty sure your heat issue is that cooling jacket, that’s way too short, not enough can is covered

[@IRONCLADRC]

I can't find any jackets longer than 73mm. That's what I'm currently running. I considered using two 40s jackets, but it'll be pushing fitment? Guess I could make a custom jacket 🤔

[@peteroosterhoff8850]

So... you were not near full throttle... 1400kv on 8s are already reasonable rpm's (with a bigger prop). Lets see what happens on 12s, looks bit crazy to me, but when you don't try you won't know... Or its totally nuts and crazy fast or........
