Princess from HK
So after looking at all of HK's Boats, my decision is to order the Princess. I was always looking for a sort of "mini yacht" scale boat. Plus the hull is about 40 inches, so it is plenty long for my needs.
To start:
Which lipos should i order? Should i run 1 or 2?
Im going to order some cf props from OSE...what sizes should i get to test out?
And finally, how is the motor? What is a good upgrade from HK that will still allow me to run the stock ESC
Keep in mind i have an SV and ul-1...do you guys think the engine/esc combo from them are more powerful than what the princess comes with?
Sorry for all the ?'s im still in the dark when it comes to lipos, ive always ran Nimh batteries on all my BL boats...so im finally going to do the switch to lipos.

RE: Princess from HK
just found a video on youtube,'straight out the box'.
Asuming its been run on 3S lipos.
Looks pretty good IF it is just a 3S lipo.
check out the speed towards the end of the video.
Might have found a nice boat for the bored wife at the lake.[X(]
