Default RE: BIG SWAMP BUGGY

Well tried out a few different props with some different engine degree angle's. I found that it runs best at 0 degree's (engine level) with either a 3-blade 10x7(MA), or a 2-blade 11x8(APC).
Hard to tell the difference in speed between the two. I should have a chance to radar this Sunday.
Whatever the speed I think its at top hull speed. Based on the fact that in the straights it's skipping the surface. Coming out of the water in whole and skipping the surface like rock tossed across the pond. It will do a 180 degree slide turn from full throttle & tracks nicely.
