i saw that. not really impressive.
turn fin is on to much of a inward angle, strut is no adjustable. its not a mono its a hydro,
and again. its to much money
but have fun with it, should go good

brodjack

Wow,that last post kinda says it all
Then no wonder newbies dont post much here,anymore!
I think it looks good Suzukiboy,looks real easy to tape the hatch dry.
Lots of space for bat.packs etc.
Did it come artf?..links?
Brod..

suzukiboy

That's what forums are about, alot of boats out there I hate the look of.
I thought a Hydro was this design?



Turn fin can be moved to different angles.
Strut is not adjustable, never had to change angles with a strut on my boats before.
Price is very very good........
It is ARTF and have seen run, it very fast.
No links to seller yet.

Where's it from? How much$? I think it looks fun!

CadillacDTS2001

this is what i think of it. would you rather me Lie and say i loved it and go buy 4 of them? Brod?

Susuki. That is a hydro. So is the green one you have. because it has steps it has multipul wetted surfaces . There for it is a hydro
That boat can run against "tradition" hydros, rigger, and anything with multipul wetted surfaces. along with cat boats and canards
But it can not run with monos in a race.

it would still be good to have a adjustable strut regardless

suzukiboy

Brought from Australia.
Can't say how much..... national secret.
Will post video when I find it.

CadillacDTS2001

you paid $340.59 US for that or $370 AU? right

BTW what kinda of speedo are you using for it ?
I think there specs are a bit wrong. 1500 watt motor ? if on a 7 cell battery at 1500 watts thats about 178 amps[sm=drowning.gif]

suzukiboy

No mate I in no way did I not like what you said about the boat, I am very open to opinions.
You won’t upset me in hurry by saying you don’t like the boat.

That's what I meant by: “That's what forums are about�

Thanks for the info on the hull design too.

Dave

suzukiboy

Yes there is a easy way to find out how much......
Still can't say.
Taylor might be on to something.

Will check spec when I get home.

CadillacDTS2001

LOL!
i have ways to find out

headhunter23

Taylor what's wrong with you? Ya got something up your ass lately? Overboard comments detract from the forum, not add.

Drodjack, let it go in one ear and out the other, cool breeze. Now if the person likes the boat, more power to him, he bought and no one else. Whether it be a mono or hydro, who cares, nice.

alloutcustom

Go out there and have a good time, thats what its all about. I doubt youll be racing so taylor, i think he could care less if its got and adjustable strut(even tho it is nice to have) or what type of boat it is. Its just for fun.

BTW, suzuki, Why dont you ever change the strut angle? Without doing so youll never get the boat tuned in right.

suzukiboy

To tell the truth I don't know what I am doing there on turning with changing strut angle.
Note sure what to watch for to gauge which way to move strut.

CadillacDTS2001

well then it is just as good to have non adjustable.


BTW in the video you saw ( i think) it fliped a couple times correct ?
well that is because of the turn fin. If you make it 90 Deg with the V of the hull you will not have that problem.
Just letting you know. In case you wondered

brodjack

Retaobcr,dosnt bother me in the slightest.
Its perhaps the younger element on these forums that make the most rudest comments.
Tayor,i suppose if everyone agreed on everything the world would be a very boring place.
Live and let live.
C,mon Suzukiboy,give us a link!
I've still lots of motors,escs and bats. looking for a good homes

TS could have been truthfull with a litte more tact but ....well he's out of tact. I think he traded what little he had for a 300 amp esc. I've got a SV27 and ever since the first post on the supertune thread any time anyone suggests adjusting the strut it's quicky cut down. Leave it neutral! This is a boat that's been fighting for stability since the beginning and we are still told to stay away from the stut. I think it kind of suggests that there's another way to get there.

Cool looking boat man. I don't care what you call it.

ctonez

How is the leading edge of the rudder aligned in relation to the drive dog...hard to tell, but from the pics it looks like the rudder bracket could be a bit longer...or the strut a bit shorter?

pretty neat little boat. I bet it'll be a bunch o' fun!

suzukiboy

Will take a better pic of the back.

Here is a Video of it running.

Looks like a lot of fun. Could be tuned to be a bit more stable (too bad the strut isn't adjustable). Looks like some tabs could smooth it out. But with the flood chamber you may not care. Seems like as it is you can't use all the power it has. Sounds really good! Looks like a blast. It does appear to run more like a hydro than a v. Seems like the driver learns alot about how to handle it from one end of the video to the other.

CadillacDTS2001

its unstable because they do not know how to angle the turn fin correctly.
stupid if you ask me. they can build a boat but they cant make it run right

just flip it 90 deg to the V and your laffin

retaobcr

Shaw is correct, the turn fin is not 90 degrees to the bottom of transom and should be angled out some more. The boat is great but 3800kv is too much rpm as it spins out and unstable and with less rpm would be smoother in every respect. The possibility of one size down on the prop might be better or even one with less pitch, never know till you try. Now it is fast and has room inside to work. Have fun!

alloutcustom

wow, that hauls, btu 3800 kv at 14.8 volts, thats gotta get hot if its a cheap motor. 44992Rpms after %80 efficaincy is calculated in. Looks liek a riot. Have fun.
