that will flip it. I don't want that.
the only thing is to make the boat run wet

well i am going to run the jack plate up high and the angle down. its the only way.
the power is a mega 22/20/1 with 6 IB4200's
it is a 5500 KV motor on a N2 setup
and its a 33 inch boat ( hehe!!) talk about knowing your setup

cool

RE: STV OPC
 
maybe i will get some guys at our club to do it one time.
well i just bought a Lehner4200 KV motor so it will run a smaller prop and have less RPM. this means with the smaller prop i can let it run wet and lose yet still be close to the water not to flip it.
should work. but what to do with this motor ?:D

That's amazing that you can make a 33" boat run that loose with 6 cells. Hats off. I really like it. You need to bribe the neighbor kid or something so you can get a vid. (I'm talking, my own kids don't want to do it unless they get to drive (and the don't).[:-]

Nice. That doesn't look like a 33" hull or are you referring to over all length including the K&B lower?

What is your prop height in relation of prop center line vs bottom of outer sponsons?

Where's the video so I can be the judge of speed? [X(] haha

RE: STV OPC
 
you cant judge speed. its to fast for a video. lol
my prop height is the same as the sponson depth.
the hull length it like 27 inches and to the prop its 33.
