the pro mod

not sure if this would work for you but its a square insert for standard collet https://zippkits.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=85&products_id=608

do not use EC5 they are too small for out boats. Get QS8, 8mm bullets, EC8 these are the best Ive ever seen and I highly recommend https://www.smc-racing.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=66&product_id=762

hot pipes are tuned pipes. as are cold pipes. tuned means it has a baffle for a return wave. a hot pipe is a pipe that doesnt have water cooling.

it looks like an 1/8th scale so it will use 8s. 850kv is about perfect something like a TP 4070 or a 5692 rocket RC motor. the goto bad boy ESC is a Castle XLX2. budget esc ZTW 200A. I'd personally get a set of SMC HCL-HP 4s packs wired in series for it.

lol it should be fast!!!

getting my P wrapped up. waiting on weather to clear coat the cowl.

very nice and clean build. I love the box on top for keeping batteries dry.

netting was an experiment to collect leaves and debris. it caused too much drag and its gone this season. motor pictured is a 3536 I think. It now has a 3548. It is about 24" wide I think.

I retrieve gas cats, hydros, backlashes, etc with this. I made it 4s with a 12x5 prop this year for more weight and power. it will in fact push or pull a full size jon boat.

seeing them drive is a spectacle. it looks like you're watching a video in fast forward.

these are actually pretty nice I have a couple, actually nicer than real zenoah stuf IMO. Takes about 7-10 days for shipping though. https://www.tit-racing.com/collections/rc-boat/products/gas-engine-cooling-jacket-cover-fits-zenoah-g260pum-for-marine-engine EDIT: NM cant use the knockoffs

dont count turns. just keep unscrewing and revving it until it gurgles and stumbles.

love K&B's

in my experience with both motors is that you will never use the 3674 to its full potential with most 4s batteries. Get the 3656.
