what is the Top speed???!!!

[CrazyHeliDude]

@superman3891 - Judging by time vs distance, a bit over 60 mph.

@CrazyHeliDude are u serious over 60mph...I have one of those and at around 35 mph it would blow over. and id go swimming..did u add a lot of weight to it..?Power is one thing and i have read in rc threads 4 or so years ago just by changing to a $60 ammo motor 2- 2 cell lipo 2500 ..they a few guys were getting around 46-48 on a perfect calm day..but these boats all used to blow over..whats your secret? thanks..ps only accurate why to get speed is gps on boat or radar gun..thanks

@roadstar499 - The 5 cell LiPo is 600 grams and was mounted in the bow of the boat to help keep it down. Even though the water was glass calm on the days I officially tested its speed, it couldn't be sustained for more than a few seconds without the boat wanting to flip. Remember that the motor is a 7XL 2400kv motor being run by a 5 cell (18.5 volts). That's 44,000 RPMs. And with a 48mm prop installed, which is why the motor didn't last more than 10 runs.

You don't need to slow the boat in corners! JUST GIVE ER!

[jeffreynevermind]

@CrazyHeliDude whats the motor rated at? 30K?

[CrazyHeliDude]

@imjustwonderful - Eventually blew it, which was expected as I was turning 43,000 rpms.
