VECTOR SR80 6S FIRST TEST FLYS TOO MUCH POWER

[@paulcooper7162]

I couldn't go much more after this I bent the steering rod so replaced with a stronger one

[@lancelanphier9509]

Wow... I've never seen a boat go that fast!! And yes that thing wants to fly

[@strexttp]

Yes it has too much power and its awesome 💪🔥😎

[@paulcooper7162]

Thanks alot 😊I will sort it so it sits down

[@240619721000]

Even on perfect water, the boat turns into an airplane and tries to take off! ))))

[@maestro-rcboat9881]

..another great experiment Paul. I'm a big fan of yours. I always mention you in our boat conversations. We have a great number of rc boat hobbyist here in the Philippines. We have our own design of boat which is called mini bangka. Our hulls are purely handmade from plywood. Looking forward on seeing one of our mini bangka in your video. I've been promoting your channel for over a month now. More and more powers bro..

[@paulcooper7162]

Hi Joseph thanks 😊 I like the sound of your boats there we see vids of how fast they go also drag racing.I don't have one of those boats would be amazing to have one thanks 😊👍

[@paulcooper7162]

Hi Joseph have you got any vids of the boat your describing

@paulcooper7162 Nice build! I am new to the hobby and just have 1 other boat. I am buying stock or Pro and deciding what base to build off of. To do a hi-spec build like your Turnigy-based Pro, is it more cost-effective to buy the stock (vs Pro) given many parts will be upgraded? +USD $60 for the Pro. Unsure if the steering rod is stronger in the Pro. Also Was this non-pro build upgraded electronics?

😂 😊 the old lady came over and told me off 😊

[@rctony710]

It's perfect!

[@paulcooper7162]

Hi 😊👍 Thankyou I've gone back to the normal system of strut and flex cable to get it to sign right in the water

[@stevesballisticrc8770]

Lol looks like fun!

[@paulcooper7162]

Thanks Steve yes fun first tests never know what will happen 😊

[@maxxm.108]

Ooo...that's fast 😱 Still Flycolor 150A? Maybe move the batteries forward, the bow is aimed at the sky 😉

[@paulcooper7162]

Thanks,yes flycolor but with the Hefei 63v capacitor bank the esc kept cool as it should do .I've removed the Integrated drive system from this and gone back to a normal strut system sure was aiming for the sky 😊👍

[@paulcooper7162]

Actually my angle on the strut was way up I've out it down will try again

[@maxxm.108]

Should help. Also check COG. Without integrated drive, when the engine is further ahead it should be better 👍

[@paulcooper7162]

@@maxxm.108 Thanks I agree 😊👍,will check my balance test soon,Ive kept the integrated drive system in

[@nunyabizznizz7326]

move the motor forward? i build real boats, your cg is off, need to move some weight forward

[@jamesatkinson7517]

it looked like it went faster in the air

[@paulcooper7162]

Sure did,I went lower voltage and did better next vid 😊

[@cwhitmer762]

Hey Paul I'm wondering if you can give me links to upgrade my sr80 pro I just basically need to upgrade the rear of the boat the prop mount and steering thanks man

[@paulcooper7162]

Hi 😊👍 I don't know how to do a link but I buy the stuff from AliExpress Tilkiea model Store,they have everything but I would recommend the SSS 3674 2075kv motor and flycolor 150A ESC ,40-42 mm prop 1.4p 2 blade CNC from Tilkiea model Store.I would use RC boat strut from Rcboatbitz Australia,Genesis upgrade strut and trim fins from FT011

[@cwhitmer762]

@@paulcooper7162 perfect thank you just recently ordered a fake go pro to do videos hopefully can get a few decent ones definitely going to put down some carbon fiber or fiberglass inside the hull as it's pretty thin

[@paulcooper7162]

@@cwhitmer762 That's good 😊👍 In done with the SR80 hull they crack easily up top so I've gone for the fiberglass Arowana mono hull 2 self righting boat.Fiberglass with epoxy doesn't really stick to abs plastib

[@cwhitmer762]

@@paulcooper7162 ah ok what did you do for stinger upgrade and I believe you used a brass tub for the flex shaft was there a different shaft you went with ? My dream is to just make my own hull out of fiberglass or carbon fiber like a diy

[@cwhitmer762]

@@paulcooper7162 I've got a 2070 kv sss tfl motor in it with a fly sky 150a esc dual cooling

[@luckeyee5139]

What speed you reckon that's at?

[@paulcooper7162]

About 50 kph

[@jimmypmalibu007]

Was way faster than that wen u put hammer down! But yeah think needs very flat water and gradule power increase but no fries this time atleast? 😀

[@paulcooper7162]

@@jimmypmalibu007 Yes,I'm gonna change back to normal motor position with strut and flex cable.no fries I ran the esc with capbank they're from the Zonda 😊👍

[@IRONCLADRC]

What did you do put a f16 fighter jet engine in that thing

[@paulcooper7162]

😊👍 yes I did well may look like that,I just checked my strut angle was pointing up should be down will try again,you know how it is upgrading testing can't always get it right first time

[@IRONCLADRC]

You'll get it rt. Nice run brother.

[@paulcooper7162]

@@IRONCLADRC Thanks man 😊👍 I also noticed my trim tabs were pointing wrong way I've just hit it back onto 5s 120-240c lipo to try again 6s is a bit wild .I'm waiting for the day you get your wee yellow boat wheelstanding 😊

[@IRONCLADRC]

Oh yea? What you had to much up trim on the tabs?? I've just finished the sniper up! Only thing left is to trim up the Rudder I think I'm gonna give it a rip before I shorten rudder so I can see how it rides.

[@paulcooper7162]

@@IRONCLADRC I had the trim so it would not push the front of the boat down but have changed that..Nice one 😊👍 I think its good to try with longer rudder at first ,will look later I hope she goes well the first time you never know could go perfect 👍

[@nowayjose20]

What mods did you do to it?

[@paulcooper7162]

Hi 😊 everything except for the rudder

[@luckeyee5139]

The speed 😂 looks like itd only good for speed runs on flat water

[@paulcooper7162]

Yes,my integrated drive system is wrong I've changed back to the normal strut and flex cable and motor up front
