About this boat
WL 915 ready to run Brushless 2.4GHz RTR Electric RC Speed Boat.
This RC boat is capable of reaching speeds up to 25MPH and anti-capsizing technology?
The flood chamber in this boat causes the boat to struggle to get up on the plane, in the end I filled it with foam, and put in a new rudder offset to the right, it now goes well, and I haven't flipped it yet!

I will be modifying this little boat as it has a few annoying problems they are:
1. The flood chamber fills quickly and once full hampers the boat in accelerating and getting on the plane.
2. You cannot run the boat slowly as the flood chamber fills
3. The self righting is not 100 percent reliable.
4. Binding is initially difficult
Mods
a. Replace cabin so boat lies flat when inverted.
so able to use rudder extension to steer when upside-down.
b. Racing rudder side position out of prop-wash and aids torque effects.
c. Fill float chamber with foam so gets on the plane quickly.
d. Cut down rudder as too long (95mm) to 65mm.
The cabin will be finished and painted properly after testing.
On testing the rudder was reduced and performed well once it got going but still have problems getting it up on a plan it feel this could be a balance issue, needs more mass at the stern. (Motor: outrunner) (ESC: unknown) (5/10)
