After my Robbe Unlimited burned out, i wanted to have
a good boat that could replace that one.
Peter of 2 Brothers RC did know which boat i wanted,
one that was fast.
The choice was made. It was the Rain-X of Danvo.
I let him know what i was planning to do with this boat, fast motor fed with a lot of cells.
Soon some of the parts where replaced, like the rudder, the axle and the trim
plates.
For the prop we first chose a 36mm one, but after the first run
last sail day we replaced that one with a 33mm.
After 2 days building it fanally was finished.
Happy as i was i took it with me tot the last sail day of this year, for a run.
After putting it in the water, i gave it full throttle.
There was a silence in the whole area.
This boat goes like....(no decent words for it)... fast!
I was just as happy as a kid.
Wow, this was great.
But after the boat turned on his back, because it was
very nervous at full speed,
we made some changes; it stil was nervous, but sailed a little better.
Now we improved the boat wit 2 turn finns, and extra trimplates, so it wil run
better.
We did have a first run with the boat, and indeed the boat did runnig a lot
better. Only after a couple of rounds the 700 motor burnt out.
(we just did a speed trail 44.7 Km/h)
We think that the motor had to much volt (20 cells), and that that was the
reason why it burnt out.
We now placed an 820 BB turbo motor in it, and and water cooled it, and hope
this one don't burn.
I think the boat is now to havvy, because the topspeed is lower than with the
700.
Last week we did a speed trail with our own GPS, and the boat didn't run faster
than 36.4 Km/h.
Now thinking to replace this motor with a 700 motor again, only now a 12v one,
instade of a 9.6v.
Maybe than the boat ingreeze the 50.
Let you update, when i do a first run with that motor.
