RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

for a 1300mAh, you would need at C rating of at least 23.07 (see below)

RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

I have two 1300mAh and I wouldn't recommend them because the rated amp draw isn't high enough on those batteries.

RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

I couldn't agree more. But for the time being, I can't really think of any solution which would be as waterproof and use less tape. I tried a silicon sealer around the edges of the hatch, but that...

RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

I was thinking about that, but I'm not sure it would help. Foam is way less dense than water, of course. But if you don't increase volume, like add length to the sponsons or something, you won't...

RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

1. Not too bad but I wouldn't turn too sharp at high speed cuz it will flip for sure. Overall though, it looses a bit of speed but not too bad. Just don't be stupid about it and you won't flip.

I'm still running the stock motor, mainly because I am very pleased and satisfied with how it runs right now.
I haven't greased the shaft yet though and I've had the boat for about a month, sounds...

RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

Thats good. What did you use for waterproofing? And what battery were you using? Also, was it a stock prop?

Thanks!
