Thanks Rene, and Kris. Much appreciated. I'll definitely take all of the advise I can get.

Absolutely; Hard to measure a single item when you're adjusting twelve. Good point, and I appreciate you pointing it out.Just remember - ONE- change at a time Joey
Thanks, Andy. Yes, I'm lifting very early upon entry. I'm not peddling it; The mixture still isn't quite on just yet. I'm working up to it. It's hard to tell from the video/audio, but it never comes up to full song until about halfway down the straight. I've got it buried exiting the corner...so I'm still fat in the mid range...OR...as you point to below, I'm not driving it right and letting the RPM slip too much. Before I start throwing guesses out there, I'm first going to leave everything as is....because I just "corrected" my motor trim. I want to run it in that configuration first, and go from there!NOTHING wrong with that Joey, are you lifting /setting and peddling it through the corner ?
Yes, that little slough is pretty narrow. It's not bad, and it's only about a 10 minute ride upriver from the house...so I'm not going to complain too much!It looks like it might be kinda narrow and that would make sense . Find your edge limit now in the corner- run it hard into and thru the corner till you wreck it- THEN you know how far you can push in the turn- adapt/adjust and drive it from there. You will be quite surprised how far you can push that hull in the corner
Haha...good advise. Thanks Andy. Going to keep this in my mind for the next run this weekend.get over what if-and find how far, its a heck of a lot cheaper with this than the heli, your not gonna hurt it
Pretty test lake btw.
Would be glad to do the 4 blade mod VP testing Mark- you know what works on mine alreadyBeau,
The three blade is the way to go right now I think.
We are testing a new four blade very soon on a 21 mod boat.
Should be fun with a piped Nova Rossi 21.
Keep Testing Fellas,

Good to know, Mark. I might have to look into that once I get some more laps on this thing. Oh, and by the way this prop I got from you last summer is awesome (X440-lynx cut). Many thanks.Beau,

Dang, Beau, I need to take some notes about preparation from you!! I have zero parts on hand...I guess I should start planning on acquiring some.I am ready for some more testing with my newly rebuilt O.S., blew it up yesterday and rebuilt it the same day.
Thanks, Kris. Hmm..we'll see about that. A lot of stuff will have to fall into place for that to happen, but you never know!Looks good to me Joey. see you in November! ;-)
Keep trying buddy- you will not be disappointed - trust me on this , I have not let ya down yetThanks, Kris. Hmm..we'll see about that. A lot of stuff will have to fall into place for that to happen, but you never know!Looks good to me Joey. see you in November! ;-)

That's good info, Thanks Robert. I'm keeping a list of "stuff to test". I really appreciate it, as I didn't have the 40/53 on my list of stuff to think about. One thing that never hurt anyone was options. I like the idea of having a few props to chose from. That case of fuel I've got is looking smaller and smaller...Joey try a 40/53 2 blade from Mark Sholund worked great on mine
You bet! That's right, you've helped a boatload (pun intended). I can't tell ya how much I appreciate it. And I mean that to everyone that's chimed in to help out.Keep trying buddy- you will not be disappointed - trust me on this , I have not let ya down yet
