    I like that you did the esc’s with the original scoops I think the esc’s need more water than the motors plus they are more expensive than motors anyway. I run in salt water as well and man it costs so many steering servos and bearings in motors I only run waterproof esc’s but I add more sealing as well.

    I lived in south Florida for four years and those pictures are beautiful, but when you are there, 95 degrees and 80 percent humidity is not comfortable in the least for 10 months of the year. Most of the freshwater ponds also had gators and you had to be careful. Right before I moved, a retired women was eaten by a big gator walking her dog next to the water!

    That’s a good looking boat my friend, beautiful spot you have to run, I got lucky, the office park lake I run on installed anti geese/duck lights-keeps them up at night so they don’t stay. It’s always good when they land upright, they always land, upright is better 🤣👍👍👍

    I’m a tech at a local hobby store and someone bought a used UL-19 from the store on consignment……it was modified with a 200 amp esc and bigger motor…anyway …this RC boat was the very first boat this buyer had ever owned….i had to do a couple things to it and he wanted me to test it…I ran it at a local lake close to my house on 6s (capable of 8s) …it’s FAST to say the least…I’m sure it hit 65 mph and I didn’t even stay in it long…. I truly hope this new owner can handle it …..plus being 79 years old will be a challenge also. Nice video

    Nice boat, I’ve been using jb weld for my motor mounts, stuffing tubes and servo mounts for 20+ years. I’ve never had a single issue even flipping my cats at over 100mph. It’s great. I use the Devcon plastic weld for carbon onto plastic hulls.

    Shoutout the Goat VR46 🤙 Have you tossed it in the bathtub and check for leaks? I found the leak in my Popeye was thru the hardware so I just used shoegoo and it sealed it So im probably gonna seal my Cheetah hardware the same way cause Im sure its gonna leak as well. Sometimes its better to not record cause you can enjoy n focus more on the boat. Enjoy your Sunday 🤙🛥️🌴☀️

    That would be disappointing considering it’s listed as waterproof and I did rinse out immediately with fresh water and then electronic spray. Prolly grab a mamba quick since I already have a Stump fab cooler in the tool box. Was gonna run this before deciding on a X8s. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Sweet Boat! I’ve heard of stories where Castle ESC stopped working after brackish water covers the circuit board. Some people say to rinse it off with freshwater and it will start working again. I think B has said this before too.

    Hey brudder that prop looks a lot like the 45mm Dr props I’m running too. Bummer about swamping I did that yesterday on my cat. You can use some epoxy to carefully add a ‘nipple’ ring around that cf tube. Or just use a small zip tie. Or use another piece of silicone around first piece like big b does

  • @ModifiedRC0877
    @ModifiedRC0877Ай бұрын

    Its is the same. The 44 I have has to much rake. Yeah, I’ve already got some smaller tubes on the way. These are 8mm! The silicon tubes are being asked a little too much to fit around that size me thinks.
