It's a slick esc. Not big at all either

I've thought about that. There's just no room in this hull, has a very skinny freeboard so this will have to be the way it runs. .

Bought one off your recommendation, and can't wait to see what she'll do!

Thanks for the tips Tyler, So ive messed around with this thing for the better half of the day. I added fiberglass to reinforce the motor mount along with the bottom of the hull. I cannot fit the batteries any other way. I turned the Hydra in line with the motor and cut out the upper deck...

Update: Did some more fitting, everything's starting to come together here. Had to cut down the esc tray to fit the motor, but besides that was pretty straight forward. Question- what would be the optimal orientation of the battery's? I had planed to push them all the way forward and to the...

Here's what I got so far for my real fast mono. I took a lot of guidance from the members here when it came to picking the parts. Hull: Dyshop Motor: TP 4070 1700kv ESC: Castle XLX Hydra Battiers: 8s Gens Ace 6800 4s 2P The goal for the build is to simply take flight. Enjoy, and follow...

Hey Don, I'm down in San diego. I appreciate the invite I do intend on coming up there in the near future

Absolutely, Thank you guys for the warm welcome. I'm getting slightly familiar with things as they go but any information is greatly appreciated.

Welcome! That UL-19 is a monster

Looks slick, love the orange.

Will do. Thanks for the information

Hey all, Maybe a pointless question, but I was wondering if anybody could help ID a prop for me. The numbers scribed in the middle of it are impossible to read. I bought the boat with this prop on it and would like to get a spare or similar just in case. It's on a magic mono hull if that helps...

Thanks so much for this Tyler, I now have a clear vision of what needs to be done. I'll step up to the 4070 as that's the largest diameter can that will fit in the boat, what KV do you recommend? OSE has a 1700kv in stock I figure will work well with the additional voltage of 8s. I'll go ahead...

Thank you for that Tony, Yes, I agree reality check needed. I am aware of what tends to happen when going at this kind of speed. Shoot the boat right now is almost taking flight at around the high 70s. However, like I replied above this hull was just too expensive to settle for "acceptable" Id...

Thanks Mic, I will take that advice. The only reason I was hesitant was they don't seem to have the currents of the controller posted ( maybe it's hidden somewhere) but now that I hear it recommended ill grab a hydra when it comes out. Recommendations on prop? and I'm still a little confused...
