  • Boat was trimmed for stability rather than highest top speed as I didnt want to have to backoff at any time except cornering.
    stock v2 sonicwake except for 175a esc and RCBB hardware for stability

    Great vid on the props. I have a dasbota sonic 1 prop, it’s an Octura x445 cut down to 43-44 millimeters, prob same one you tested. What stinger angle and trim tab settings did you use. Would appreciate your feedback and Lipo placement as in forward or back of the centre of gravity. Thanks

    • @RCBoatBitz
      @RCBoatBitz  Рік тому +1

      I would never have a reason to own a gps if i wasnt selling upgrades, knowing the exact top speed of a boat doesnt make it more fun to use

    • @petergoodwin2465
      @petergoodwin2465 Рік тому

      @RCBoatBitz true , just makes me wonder how much faster those props improve the speed because it's a big increase on some boats like , over 20 ks easy. I can see it and say the swear words .ha,ha, thanks for your work mate .

    Regarding the Dasbota props, they are supposed to be outstanding (as long as the boat is tuned for "speed") for SAW, but definitely not for racing. This is because, from all I've read (ie. forum posts from people actually owning these props), they are sharpened & shaped for "top speed". Unfortunately, my own personal interactions with the individual has been less than stellar - he is arrogant, and I will NOT purchase from him (and, I know of several others who say the same thing). This is NOT knocking his work...I have seen his work, and, it IS excellent...but, I will not deal with people like that. At for RC Boat Bitz, I will DEFINITELY purchase from them.

      @@RCBoatBitz still haven’t tried mine and its BoatBitz trim tabs 🤔. I took it two time on my real boat and it was impossible to bind… I then learnt that there is giro in the stock receiver and if the BJ42 is not completely level and is not moving at all (difficult on a real boat…), then it cannot bind (even with the AVC disabled 💩)… I had to change the receiver… should be ok now 😁

    My proboat is no where near as smooth as yours. It takes water, engine heats up very fast and I’m hearing grinding/gurgling noises. Any suggestions? Don’t say throw it away😂

    • @RCBoatBitz
      @RCBoatBitz  8 місяців тому

      I love sonicwakes, would never say throw it away.
      Mine runs smooth because it has our upgrade kit installed, larger trim tabs and fins.
      Also our upgrade rudder in that kit has 4 pickups feeding 2 outlets for twice the water pressure/flow so it stays cool.
      The grinding noise is coming from your drive shaft so grease it well, i usually add a spray of wd40 as well.
      As for the leak that could be a split hose or damaged grommet where the brass tube goes through, do a static test in the bath
