In 2011 and 2012 limited 1/6 Cracker Box racing had a lot of interest . about 36" long , they were easier to drive then the existing 1/12th class . A friend Taylor Collins made me a CNC Router cut prototype kit . It was fast and handled very well for a flat bottom cracker box . It won the...

You have a PM

Don't be concerned about weight . build it strong ! Often we have to add weight to keep them on the water .

1/4" . Your talking probably more HP and Torque then most Gas boats .

Rule of thumb multiply the KV by the pack voltage , 25,000 rpm to 28,000 is a good starting place . nitro size props .

I have been watching this thread , hoping some one would give you some help. I seldom comment . I run a NEU 2215 2Y on 10 S 8000 mah in a 45" Insane gas Mono in Open Oval with the gas boats . Id suggest a big motor , NEU 2215 , Castle 2028 , large Lepoard or TP with a KV of 800 or lower on 10...

Im interested in a hull for Spec FE power . No Radio box or Motor Mount structure . 5" wide motor bay is good for battery placement . Some of my boars are built with a radio box for the ESC , RX , and rudder servo . Id need to build that in . Dick Roberts Sun City AZ

I bought a big lepord when they first came out , probably a 5692 , probably 1000 kv . I also bought a used mono , looked like a 45" Cyber Storm Copy. My friend Gary built it . He runs it on a Seaking 130 HV and a X452 on 8S1P turnigy 40C 5000s . Its nearly as fast as the G1 monos .He made...

Hi Gilbert I run an Insane mono with a NEU 2215 2Y ( 750 KV ). A NEU 1527 1Y is really a 6 - 7 S motor if your oval racing in a 40" hull . Some very experienced guys get away with running it on 8 S and small props . A CC 2028 ( KV is 780 as I remenber ) is a good choice too . A CC 2028 on...

I ran a .5 Y in a Insane 34 on 4S with a 646 , no heat problens heat racing. Uncontrollable fast on anything but smooth water . Try it on 4S . Probably go as fast as the hull will handle . I was running a CC 240 . Im sure it will pull more prop . Now i have a 1D in it . Dick Roberts

If its thick enough , and large enough , 2 liter soda bottles . Or check with the manufatures of the bottles for raw material

Whats the length and width of the JAE 45 Hull ? thinking about a electric conversion .

Never mind , Google hsd the answer
