Expensive RC Props, What to know before buying, balancing, or sharpening!
Here I discuss a few topics related to RC boat props.
Oxidean Marine, OSE Brass/Aluminum, ABC copper, Dr. Props, & Voodoo. All these companies make excellent props, far superior to any Chinese props on Amazon.
Typically the more expensive the prop, the better overall performance!
I cover a couple important tips when it comes to balancing & sharpening copper props & heat treating.
I'm not an expert on any of these topics, I am strictly just sharing what I've learned.

I was Given a TFL Genesis to tinker & test. Swapped in TP Motor - 160A 8S esc.
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.9 часов назад
@AdamEverythingRC decided that I needed more boats, so he lent me his to upgrade & run. First stop was a TP motor upgrade & a Spektrum Firma 160 esc. Paired with the Wfly x9 transmitter, I decided to test it first on 4s. The SMC HVC 9000 packs are the best choice for this boat inorder to keep weight down.

Wooden 21FE Outrigger Kit Gets Paint, Hardware, ESC & Motor!
Просмотров 68712 часов назад
I'm truly excited about this rc boat build! Alot of time & effort went into the paint & overall setup. For the esc we're using the Flycolor Kraken 180A & the Motor is a 4074 Leopard 2650kv This will be a great 4S setup & possibly 5S. I still have a few finishing touches to do, along with decals. So I'll wait til it's completely finished before I show it finished. If your interested in building ...

Just a Fun Saturday night racing with some locals! My third time here, & everyone had to follows the rules & run the stock Predator motor. I found the perfect Gear combo & decided to swap to better/newer tires. Spent 2 days preparing the tires & tried a taller tire on the RR. That helped me hang the turns alot better! Rather than keeping my setup a secret, I told all the guys how I setup my kar...

TFL Twin Motor Carbon Fiber Cheetah Catamaran RC Boat, running twin 6S lipos!
Просмотров 1 тыс.14 дней назад
We took the TFL Cheetah Cat out for a quick run at the end of a long day! Tested a new set of "China made props" 4219s. Running 2 6s lipos really seems overkill for these Seaking 180 speed controls. They also get too hot & can't disapate the heat that generated fast enough. So next on the "to do list" is going to be an ESC upgrade, to the Castle Hydra x8s. I'm also going to remove the motors & ...

Low C-Rating lipo almost makes my boat catch on fire! Tested 4 Different Brand Batteries
Просмотров 71221 день назад
Lithium Batteries size & C Rating is extremely important! Finding Batteries that fit is sometimes hard to do, so I decided to test what would fit. Unfortunately I ruined this brand new 25c Roaring Top but luckily it didn't catch fire! I've since ordered a 80c version in hopes that it will perform better. Another test run video will be posted once it arrives. Contact Email- Hwdracing@gmail.com #...

Carbon Fiber Transom for Wooden Shrimp Outrigger. 86mph RC Boat

Carbon Fiber Transom for Wooden Shrimp Outrigger. 86mph RC Boat
I built the Zipkits r4. I've gotten 78mph .
Balance is key on anything rotational. When I was hot and heavy flying helicopters I checked and balanced everything. I would not only balance horizontally but vertically also. I went as far as weight and matching blade center balance. Talk about being anal. Lol
Good video, excellent advice.
Good video!
talked to the most knowledgeable person, Jim Schaffer he gave me this formula Stress relieving first, then harden/tempor the prop Stress relieving 340°f for 15-20 min, let cool then harden/tempor 450-650 for 40 min. You need 2 steel prop racks one for the keln/oven/forge and a cool rack. When you pull the prop out the keln immediately place the prop on the cool rack, the cool pin cools the prop from the inside/hub out increasing its hardness.. 1500°f to soften the prop (forgot the amount of time 5-15 minutes, I think?)
Hi: where can I get that double water pick up rudder?
Do you have a stealthwake 23 ? I really would like to see if anyone can beat my PB of 61 mph
Awesome videos on the impulse. I just picked one up a few days ago and was curious how yours turns left with the extended rudder because I see you mostly going right in your videos and was wondering if i should do it as well. With one hour of play time with it ,I hit 63 on 6s and seems like a great boat.
@badmofreaker4205 all boats are designed to turn right. But it turns fine Left. All you have to do is modify the bracket & flip it & it works excellent. Bigger turn fins help alot too. The Impulse is definitely a straight line speed boat, not the best for hard corners tho
@H2oMechanic2RC thank you. I received the boat Friday and had to fix a bunch on it before I could use,but when I tried a high rake oxidean prop ,I turned all the way left and it would go straight lol,and already made bigger turn fins and it's definitely a great boat so far I plan to get it in the 70's before trying it on 8s,I will get the parts ordered, thanks again and keep the videos coming. I you could send me the part number for the longer steering rod I would appreciate it.
I like the sound of it 😊
Nice work on the carbon fiber! She ran nice as hell on 4s! Impressive! For a big boat with a single screw. She ran really well with that big prop. 💪💪💪
Cool looking boat, nice work and all.
So glad you had some fun with that, and good to see it on the water. Great Job as always
Big bro you should do dual motors on the genesis and get a centered rudder like the pros to keep it balanced
@ChrisGreen-v7h not my boat, so gonna see how fast we can get a single 36mm motor to push it!
You don’t do the firma with remote. You do it with the set button, real easy.
Always impressed with your building skills, the Impulse in its final form will be a missile. The rudder on the Genesis looks odd, its like it doesn't belong on this hull and the weight that far starboard is no wonder it flips, i know you are stuck with where the steering shaft comes through the hull and the design of the transom but is there not a another style that has less mass.
Looks damn good, just finished my 21GT nitro. I found during body work and paint work i used oversized Qtips stuff in the boom tube holes works great for keeping stuff out of them.
I run those 4 channel receivers and I've range tested them pretty damn far and I've not had one glitch. I was surprised. And that was with the antenna down. I told you about that stinger. It will only get worse and you'll keep adding trim. It's just a bad design. I run my esc up front as well but if it balances out then it shouldn't matter. I love the purple and i say 58mph
Perfekt job, man! Do you have also shortened/cutted rudder? Thanks.
That purple looking so good 😊😊
You can velcro your receiver to the bottom of the inside of the lid and then take that little antenna out the lid
Beautiful presentation bud. Lotta thought was obviously put in prior to construction. Between yourself and Cozy and Ironclad you are all my go to.👌👍🇦🇺
They are great for speed but they are tail heavy I put my esc up front to balance it better.
@@jamesatkinson7517 yea, im waiting to test cg & the esc. Bigger motor will need a bigger esc & probably go up front. All in time
Nice work 💫👍
Bro!!! That’s freaking sick man! Beautiful work man
Good job on build,coming out Great ! Great help on my build .
Looking Good
There's so much room in this tub, compared to the shrimp! I like the purple and the matching hardwares. Looking forward to the maiden!
That looks amazing!! Great job bud! Can't wait to see it throw some rooster tails!! I'll be there one day, trust and believe! You gave me inspiration for later projects!
Looking good Sir. Waiting for mine to arrive.
Polyester primer covers all things.
I’m up to paint . Stumped on what primer.Any brand in particular sealer coat is epoxy finish . Cheers
@michaellidis1148 i use Dupli-color grey sandable primer. Wait 24hrs, wet sand to 1000g. Then paint also dupli-color. Allow 48hrs to dry, then i use their 1K clear. I've done 3 boats this way, $65 for 3-4 cans & you have a nearly professional looking paint job!
👍
@@H2oMechanic2RC that is why tape pulls it up. Use any 2 part primer its much less prone to that. 2k urethane primers are about 10:1 coats thicker than a rattle can. Polyester primer is a out 30x thicker. So 1 coat of it equals 30 coats of lacquer primer. Allowing you much deeper sanding and biting while being as smooth as possible. When you look price per coverage the duplicolor whatever is actually the most expensive. A $50 quart of 2k goes literally 10x further for instance.
I didn't see the champagne flying or the women in bikinis handing you the trophy 😮😅 you did great and had some good moves.
❤Love it!
Oooohhh I like that! Hell yea Phil! Cant wait to see it finished
Superb driving! Nice lines! Amazing restart in heat 2! I got 4 karts. 2 shifters. 2 automatics All four are 2 stroke 💪 Never tried dirt karts.. But they look fun as hell Great driving dude!
Gaaf kleurtje !
Oh yeah that's my favorite color. Can't wait to see the rest
You caused me to spend money. I ordered the boat and hardware kit. Can’t wait to start working on it.
@@Scramblerkidd wait til you see my paint job!
Great vid. The Dominator is super slick and stable on the water. Love the all after noon bash setup, lay back and just put pack after pack through it. Not all about outright speed. 🍻
More and more tempted to pick up a dom every vid. They looks pretty stable at speed
Couple more buddies you got a race sweet run.
I'm going to make sure my reciver is in a Ballon in my boat
Lovely to see both boats . Enjoyed the video. Thank you
You get the award for the best boat tods in. It was from a standing position and it didn't flop on the water but glided . Nice toss😊
Dominator is a. Superior boat.. Especially with the side by side with the tfl outer limits... They're both great boats.. And fun.. But the Dominator is definitely superior in stability and control. Plus she handles the chop waaayyy better Great video boys!
@JANDRMARINE 100%. I really want the Carbon Kevlar non self righting version in Hull & Hardware. I've only flipped this boat once in 30+ runs.
@H2oMechanic2RC Mine is a non self righting version, got her as hull &. Hardware.. I've flipped mine here and there while running super loose in chop. But she's stable as hell! My Dominator is probably my favorite boat out of my fleet.
Fun Times
Really been enjoying the collaboration vids! TFL outerlimits step bottom is like ole reliable for me, get 48mph stock on 4s with octura 442/3. I don’t touch it as it’s the most reliable boat I own! I know the dominator is very fast. Got too many boats to tweak set ups on.
@stevesocransky6341 unfortunately this was the last of the videos we shot that weekend. He left the boat with me, im going to attempt to get it over 70mph
I ran my r4 outrigger today, it's same size and build as yours, man it runs nice. My son was running a shrimp outrigger he just finished and we had a little chop but the r4 ran like it didn't even bother it. Really smooth running boat, just the hardware sucks in my opinion. I did set my turn fin so that it sits square to the body and not flush with the sponson. It makes for a smoother turn.
I just bought this boat for my son for Xmas. He's 34. So I'm saving your video for him to watch. Thanks for the video.
Great job quality, craftsmanship, question, whenever I use epoxy it starts out shiny then as soon as it gets wet, it dulls out. I have tried several different manufactures. Do you clearcoat it thanks. Keep up the good work.
Having the thrust bearing between the motor end cap & the coupler stops the prop thrust/flex shaft pushing the motor shaft/rotor back inside the motor. This helps take load of off the rear bearing in the motor.
@gillian9178 yea! My Shrimp Rigger has a TP motor that the thrust is pushing it apart! Separating both ends!
@@H2oMechanic2RC Exactly what can happen, it can also destroy or wear out the rear motor bearing prematurly by putting side load on the ball bearing. Radial ball bearings are only designed to take axial loads.
What's the nitro fuel for?? U hiding another one we don't know about? Lol
