I am setting this PT hull up with a 10oz and a 2 oz. I would be interested to know what the guys who are running them are using.

 

[SayMikey]

I've always ran a pair of 6oz tank. One on each side if motor mount

i have used the dubro 14 with a 1 oz hopper tank gooed on top, this fits under the cowl.

I run Sullivan 14oz main with 2oz hopper tank.....it's more thane enough to do 6-8 racing laps and a cool down lap.

Waynes is very quick. Plenty of promise for more speed too.

Wayne which 40hydro you got?

Is sport 40 being run over your way?

 

[Wayne Johnstone]

It's a Phil Thomas hull. It runs sometimes usually only at our winter spec

 

[Samuel Hagan JR]

Seems a little small on the prop?

 

[Wayne Johnstone]

I believe you are correct. I have been trying to sort out the fuel system and havent really spent much time on props. Any suggestions? Was thinking maybe a 450?

 

[Samuel Hagan JR]

I have had really good luck with a 452/2 Blade reduced to 50mm and 450/3 Blade. I have tried the new ABC 2018 and 2019 but didn't see any real big improvements. So I'm sticking with my Octura.

Some guys are using a 1455 but I haven't had any luck.

All of this is with a CMB VAC 45.
