no feedback,.. does it suck? or seem just too average?

 

[Rigged]

dont look too shabby to me. I could only pray for water conditions like that.

 

[Terry Keeley]

Looks good to me.

First run and it came back, you're gonna have a winner there!

 

[Tim Kish]

Boat looks solid Anthony and your camera man is is a pro lol.

Great getting the kids involved.

RPM's are a little off , but that will come with testing.

Once you get the S-Pipe figured out, your going to hear a totally different note coming from your engine. And a noticeable increase in speed. Keep at it, once you find it, your going to grin from ear to ear

 

[Chris Wood]

listen to the boat.. listen to the video.. your boat is already on rpm just as you turn out of the corner. and it stays there.. with that pipe in the video i would say more dia or cup.. hard to say without being there thought.

with the S-pipe go smaller dia.. 46 - 47mm seams to work well

keep us posted and remember. it TAKES TIME AND PATIENCE LOL!! LOTS OF BOTH

Tony,

Nice video. The center of blade pitch needs to be increased

or I will just send you something better this week. The boat

looks solid on the water and more speed is still in that set up.

Thanks For Sharing,

thanks Mark,.. I have one going back to you in the mail today,.. sorry for the delay!!! I tried the S pipe yesterday. I didn't seem to hit the "wall" and take the plug as before. I think it has potential with this boat yet. Still hard to go away from the AB pipe cuase it's so easy... set it at 2.5 and run most any prop... but I'll work on the both with more props.. The .19cc head button DOES make a big difference,. The motor seems to be much happier for sure!!!

Thanks for all your help,.. all you of you guys!!1

 

[RodneyPierce]

And he means .17cc head button

 

[anthony_marquart]

oh yeah,.. (thanks R)

One of the runs today, with the S pipe, not the AB, Sholund 1450, NR 5P with lower volume head button.

Comments on the difference?

 

[Terry Keeley]

Prolly picked up 5K rpm and 10+ mph!

 

[anthony_marquart]

and a few Db's for sure!!

 

[RodneyPierce]

Anthony, looks great!!! I think there is def. an increase with the S pipe, and the 1450

 

[kcvnd]

Looks great Anthony! Nice to see the finished product run so well.

 

[hugh hargett]

Yeah that things cookin.

 

[shoboat]

Tony,

Show us a new video once you get the new propellers on it.

Your camera man is doing a great job filming by the way.

May just need a little bit of tip cup now and that will be ready to

go racing.

Thanks For Sharing Tony,
