Thanks for answering!

RE: superior vs supervee

Both of these hulls like smooth water...rough water will not let them operate at their full potential. If your water is allways rough I would buy a larger boat such as 51 Rio.

RE: Another Outrigger Predator project!

That 3700kv motor is best suited for 2s2p lipo setup. Hydra 120 or ETTI 150 esc should work.

RE: Getting a Rigger Insanity!

This rigger is a good N2 class race boat. So I would bite the bullet and do it right:

Neu 1515 .5Y motor
Hydra 240
Two 2s 4500mah lipo's (2s2p)
Solinger hardware and rudder
.078 drive...

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

Not yet ! Rigger seems slightly faster using the wire. Maybe the .072 wire will hold up better than .062 wire?

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

My stuffing tube has a gradual and less sharp bend. I use a .062 wire drive with Octura collet. The .062 wire rides inside 3/16" brass tubing and teflon liner. The 3/16" brass tubing fits perfect...

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

What will you be using to seal wood before paint? I used Z POXY finishing resin applied with 1" foam brush then sanding between coats (total three coats on sponsons and just one coat on hull). I...

It is very important to test fit everything before ordering batteries.

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

Where did you purchase the Lipo battery in picture and what brand name is it (Enerland)? I like the beefy 10gauge battery wire.

RE: Rigged Insanity Build

This hull is best suited for N2 Hydro class racing using a Neu 1515 1d or .5y and 2s2p lipo setup.

I currently do not race so "just for fun" I am running this rigger using SV27 power and Octura...

I wish you luck with your 7xl power setup...hopefully it will live a long time without the esc going up in smoke. If I were you, I would use the new MarinePower lipo's with 6.5 bullet connectors for...

RE: MISS VEGAS BRUSHLESS CONVERSION?

You can grind a new slot location on propeller shaft for drive dog to expose more threads.

I purchase the smallest CMD 3 blade prop OSE sells (part # c4569/3 45mm diameter x 64mm pitch), but...

CMD props will not fit on the Aquacraft shaft unless you reposition drive dog to expose more threads on shaft.

RE: MISS VEGAS BRUSHLESS CONVERSION?

You can make your boat faster by increasing the Angle Of Attack of your sponsons. Grimracer once stated that the Miss Vegas hull does not have enough AOA to go really fast. When he designed the UL-1...

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

When attaching your turn fin make sure bend lines on fin are in line with setup board.

My strut is adjusted so that tub is level with setup board.

Here's my latest configuration using Aquacraft SV27 power. I like the home made 3/16" aluminum coil cooling jacket...$2.16. Rigger also uses the more efficient .062 wire drive. Notice I did not use...

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity

Good job! You are a fast builder. Krylon primer and paint is about the cheapest yet durable routes to take when painting.
