Looks good. That little hopping is nothing to worry about. If you want to fix it, you need to adjust yuor trust angle. Looks much faster now!

Big difference in my opinion...for the better!!!

Adjust you prop angle just a little and she should ride flat. Although she's not bad right now!
When it is set right. Your boat should lay flat and "boogie" when you get in the throttle, when you back out of the accelerator it may porpoise sligthly naturally.

The boat runs GREAT!!!!

PRO copy this and open up your player and use open from URL and past this in the box and then it should work for youhttp://www.arxreptiles.com/Other/SWAMPFISH.MPG

Hey did you guys see the fish pop at my boat? I already have it angled back a lot so much that it feels like it's lifting the back of the boat up sometimes i can get it to slip out in a tiny circle ... does it matter that it pops up and down? I am thinking it puts a lot of stress on the prop and motor bearings from the poping?

Quicktime is a PITA. They want me to reload all.

WM9 is much better format. IMO.

OK....got it...

It's running real good.

That little hop is something you'll have to get used to. You could try to trim it out, but most of it is simply from the hull running over the very little waves. The only time one of my hulls does not do the little bounce is when it is going over perfectly calm water, no ripples at all.

What's the dead boat in the vid?

Looks like you have a screamer there! Very nice setup.
