RE: M-6 in a DaVette Runner ( break in )
Yes I have to agree when I had the smaller prop on it ( 280 ) the boat didn't prop walk as much . But because this boat is still at it's testing stages I want to see what it can handle . The M-6 can handle the big prop no problem and at full throttle the boat is off the water and as soon as I straighten the rudder the boat is like a rocket and very stable . That's what I've been waiting for . Now I just need to control the prop walk which I think I'm almost there . My idea of a drag boat is to stay in your own lane from 0-100 or from start to finish without giving it any rudder . I'll have to get me a 6717-3 from Dasboata and see what happens . Thanks for all your input guys .
Not to change the subject BUT my DaVette SS has the strut mounted right in the center and with a stock 260 Zenoah & a 275 prop it doesn't have prop walk ( at least not that I noticed ) That boat will take anything you throw at it . Very kid proof .
