NexGen EP1 P-Hydro

[RaceMechaniX]

These are some pics of my NexGen EP1 P-hdyro. This is the kit developed by Mark Grim and Charlie Mason from Huntsville, AL. The kit is available in 2 varieties: a P-Limited intended for 36x60mm motors and a P intended for slightly longer motors. The only difference between the two kits is the cut-out of a second bulkhead in front of the motor to allow for a longer motor in the P kit. The kit builds similar to a JAE and is easy to glue together with some basic skills. I built mine with a different motor mount and opted to put the steering servo in the baitbox. I am running a TP 40mm motor with a Castle X8S water cooled controller and a Promodeler DS205BLHV servo. The cowl shown in an optional fiberglass single piece cowl.

NexGen website where you can buy these kits is here: NexGen Performance Model Boats

Some pics shot by Mario from the past fall Cincinnati TT. This is Mark's personal P-Ltd version that holds the NAMBA P-Ltd 2-lap record and IMPBA 1/4 mile record.

I am finishing up mine as we speak. Almost ready to paint. Just need to mount the strut/rudder/servo. Then shes done. Would be nice if the weather was a little warmer to paint.

I emailed Mark and Charlie with no response. Are they still producing boats?

Thanks in advance

Yes Larry they are. Did you try calling? Neither of those guys seem to be email savvy. You can also order off their website.

Yep I got ahold of Mark and received my kit. Super happy with the quality of the kit. Almost finished with the build.

I love mine. I’m not racing, just running for fun. Running 70mph and the boat is very stable and turns amazing. SMC 4S, OSE Raider 150A, SSS 4074 2500kv, ABC 1717.

Good looking boats, I'm on the fence about buying one. What's the hot setup for P hydro with these?

 

[RaceMechaniX]

For a full P-Hydro something like a TP3650 or TP4060 with a kv around 2500-2900kv and 4S2P using smaller 3000-4000mAh size cells.
