Default RE: conversion Miss bud


ORIGINAL: Diegoboy

Dirtysouth31 converted his Miss Vegas. It's heavier than my Bud. He runs the ammo motor and 3800mAh. He runs at 28Mph according to his GPS.

I can't wait to see what my lighter Bud will do with the same ammo motor and EP4200's

All I'm saying is that your buddy is running a brushless hydroplane and is doing 28mph.... I'm running a gutted Hammer EP hull with a 700 motor and hitting 32.4 (garmin e-trex). Those hulls are just heavy and not built for FE use. To lighten it up you might want to look into taking the lead weight out of the right sponson, there's about a half a pound in there. Get rid of the facotry radio box and build a new horizontal wing from lighter material.

Not saying you can't have lots of fun with them!


Please don't take this the wrong way, I'm not dogging you at all! You're boat looked great and looked like it was a ton of fun to run. I've wanted a hydro myself for a while but I'm more of a sport runner. Those Miss Buds and Llumarsare absolutely beautifull boats. They really draw attention.
