Nice job Patrick!


Not to the contrary of the original question. I have run the Hydra 120 and 240 models successfully on 6s. With that said, I wasn't exactly trying to break records nor was I using cheap equipment. The hull was rigged with Speedmaster Hardware, precisely lined up and installed. The motor, flexshaft, prop all spun FREELY! The 120 was in a TC31 conversion running a 1515/1.5Y and a M545 prop. It did 50-55mph easily with little effort and little heat. The 240 was run in a 30" mono with the same 1515/1.5Y motor and a x442.

I was also cautious of the "reliability on 6s" and the suggestions to get the HV controllers but I pushed my luck with success.
