I just made a tweak on my little 22 inch exceed sword fish... the stinger had 4 tiny washers(from factory) angling my prop slighty down and the only way i could get it to ride right was put my 3000 4s all the way back to transome... i removed the washers and now prop is neutral... so i am hoping i will be able to move battery slightly forward and it will get the right amount of bow lift and even turn better... can't wait to go to lake to test... thanks for sharing
Thank you for good and informative videos! I only have two small Super Mono x boats at the moment but still have gotten great help from this, I love when I have the boat dialed in nicely and can have it up on plane and just do loooong sweeping turns. Hope to get a bigger boat soon though, those small ones don't like anything other than calm water
That's the only thing I dislike about small boats. It's gotta be slick calm on the water. Big boats are great but it's a hassle prepping for the water dual battery's/ grease/ shear size etc. Thanks for watching IRONCLAD RC
@@IRONCLADRC these small ones are great to just bring along, they fit nicely in one of the side storage in our car, along with the radio and batteries. But in a few months we're moving to live really close to a fairly big lake so I'm looking at getting a few more watercrafts, bigger motorboats as well as sailing. I have two unfinished 3d printed jet boats to complete as well. Thank you for good content 👍
The ESC is actually a flycolor 150A ESC relabeled LOL. Great 150A for the price. The 120A version basically looks the same and is also good. Mine best choice under 6S is the hobbywing seaking v3 180A ESC. Definatilly give that one a shot.
Trim tabs is what you need small flat trim plates left and right side that should definitely take care of your porpoising still looks like you have that at top end other than that problem would be solved you got a sweet boat
Great video! QUESTION, I noticed the boat 'bouncing' over the water...Does this indicate the trim should be adjusted down ever so very slightly?...Enough to keep it on the water but not so much as to slice the water? Or would that make it worse?
I built a boat (3d printed) that skips horribly in a turn. Even at fairly low speed. New to boating so I’m not sure what to do to fix it. Tried turn fins but it still skips. Any advice on what to try next would be much appreciated! Been watching a bunch of your videos. Thanks for all the insight.
Without actually see what the boat is doing its hard to pinpoint exact cause. Start by moving your cg around 30% from the transom is a good starting point. Move cg extreme back test if that didn't solve try extreme forward.. I've had boats hop due to to much down trim on my trim tabs, go up a turn or so, with cg back or at 30 percent. Tip. Make a change then test that change do change to many things at once.
