  • @bill34207 faster than this? Nice boat btw

  • @bill34207 Hey what speeds can i expect out of this boat with my nue 1527 .5y with competion winds? Is my motor any good or is it a slow motor? thanks..

  • @monstersouthside11 Don't know what you will get with a 1527 but the 1521 peaked out around 55 on 6s.

  • how log is your rudder

  • @wawdeno It's the stock rudder that came with the boat

  • Hi can this Neu 1521 handle x447 prop size with 6s set up?

  • @Donng75 I think it can. I've run a X642 and M445 on it as well. It heats up the batteries pretty fasr with the bigger props though.

  • What adjustment did you do to eliminate the hopping, half way through the video ??

    Thanks

  • @flyrc88 That was just a touch of up trim to the driveline angle.

  • @bill34207

    Just finished building my Genesis and curious to know the rudder deflection and the CG.

    Any assistance would be great !!

    Thanks

  • @flyrc88 I never really checked it degree wise but would guesstimate around 30 degrees. CG is at 40% of the overall hull length.

  • Hey bill I was just wondering what kind of modifications you may have done to your cooling system, I don't think mine is getting enough water through it.

  • @Relentless033

    Everything I've done to it is my build log. (including replacing the cooling lines with larger tubing). Check the description of the video and select more. The link is at the bottom of the description.

  • @Relentless033

    My bad, the link to my website is actually on a later video. Go to my page and look for the one from August 14th. HobbyKing-Genesis

  • should I get this or the new Proboat Miss Geicho

  • how much money have you put into that thing (Including the hull and original electronics, water pick up, etc.

  • @oppisiteofafredfan I try not to think about it, but would guess there's around 600-650.

  • @bill34207 hah! lol. man.... that's a few paychecks hehe

  • Hey nice setup. I was reading your thread on rc groups. You and gebiena both have great setups. I was wondering if i could combine the Feiago motor with the turnigy 180amp esc?

  • @stuglas69s

    I don't see why not. The 180 is a good esc and have a friend that is running the turnigy 120 on 6s with a Feigao 540XL. I don't recall the number designation but it's the 1490 kv motor

  • Comment removed

  • What kind of run times do you get with the batteries you stated you are using?

  • @md9897

    2 minutes of race type running will put the packs at about 125* F with X640 Octura. A 642 puts them at about 145* in the same time frame (not enough speed increase to justify cooking the packs either). Pack voltage is still above 11v per 3s pack. Most heat races are over in two minutes anyway. There's a couple of later vids on my page with more aggressive running.

  • hows the esc holding up? does it get hot?

  • @TwzteDproductions

    So far it's been working well and staying below 130 degrees

  • hi nice 1521/1y can handel my prop

    i have same setup

    so can i use

    AquaCraft GrimRacer L40x57 3-Bld Copper-Beryllium Prop

  • @ko74033

    I think the motor would handle the prop with no problem but don't know how the cat would react to that lifting prop since it's design is for use on a hydro.

  • WOW ! thank for the video!!

  • Hey bill,

    I have read it , you did a great job!!!

  • @gebiena10

    Thanks. I see yo have one too. :-)

  • hey,

    great vid of the Genesis and nice runs!!

    Did you gps'd it?and are you using the original flex and strut?

    greetzz Arnold

  • @gebiena10

    Hi Arnold.

    I think most of your questions can be answered in my thread on RC Groups. I tried to post the link but it keeps giving an error when I do. Try searcjing for a thread titled "newbie lost". The Genesis starts on page 9

  • You rock Bill!!!!! We need to run some boats together!

  • @tiqueman97

    Maybe this month if the weather will co-operate for meeting day.
