Looks like she is hopping big time, might need to adjust your trim tabs a bit mate!

[@jaycevessier7554]

Nope, needs a better prop. I’ve been through it with this boat

[@mustafaalemdag3850]

Awesome build amigo !! Where did you pick up the parts? What did you do with your water cooling setup?

[@CorporateTrucking]

Mustafa Alemdag to honest with you bro I highly recommend you go to RC boat bids and buy the whole entire kit that’s the first place where you should start then get a seaking 120 ESC and then went the seaking blow your motor then upgrade the motor to a A Poseidon 1420 or a tp performance motor best bet for all day fun with out worries about heat that’s what kills RC’s

[@mustafaalemdag3850]

williamsxl thanks for the great advice amigo. Did you upgrade your water cooling system as well from there? What did you change?

[@mustafaalemdag3850]

What is RC Boat Bids? An Amazon or eBay seller? Hobby shop? Seller from China? Couldn’t find it. Do you have a link?

Need to put the batteries further forward to correct that porpoising

[@tonyromano6220]

Jayce Vessier it is a flaw with hull I think.

[@jaycevessier7554]

Tony Romano nope, I figured it out. It’s the prop. I put everything back stock and put a octura m445 prop on it and porpoising is gone and it runs over 60

[@tonyromano6220]

Jayce Vessier I got 58 out of mine with a custom prop. However the boat wants to fly and never seems to run straight without porpoising.

[@jaycevessier7554]

Tony Romano where is your strut? Basically I’ve tried everything. And my set up is tabs flat with bottom, strut is all the way down with maybe 1* angled down. One big thing, you need to find your center of gravity on boat. Place batteries dead center. With my boat set like that it rides super flat and hauls ass.

[@jaycevessier7554]

Tony Romano I’m about to put a new 150amp esc in mine this week, I’ll get a video of it running this weekend and post it on here for you to see

[@BoboLinkz06]

How much run time u get out of this set up?

[@CorporateTrucking]

I get 6-7 minutes going hard if I keep it moderate 10-15

Where did you get it painted at?

[@Fatpumpumlovah2]

Speed is in the prop not the motor

[@burdok4591]

I would disagree. If that were true 2 identical boats with identical props would go same speed even if one had a 800kv and the other had 2200kv with both on 6s?

[@Fatpumpumlovah2]

@@burdok4591 first off do u even know what kv is, a 2200kv motor can never turn a prop the same size and pitch as an 800kv. Point is ur choice of prop is way off.
