😂👍..Thankyou..it doesn't have chambers so it's more balanced..more to come from this boat it's quite balanced .was windy gusty out there and I had bent a trim fin and the lipo had come off its velcro,I never did it up well just incase I had a fire and needed to rip the lipo out..I got some panther graphenes to try and a bigger prop..can't expect too much from a yoghurt container thin boat🐢🐛😊👍
@@paulcooper7162 That battery does not look that healthy anymore , i would store it outside the house..maybe for low duty task in a car still usable.. i think once you witness the fire onboard,it may already be too late-one single 6s at ~3,8v/cell has still a lot of potential to cause ugly damage. That system with the bulky hatch seems to work super..although not the most aesthetical solution,but who cares while bashing.
@@Rolinx212 Thankyou..I will change to panther graphenes now they don't swell at all with this setup and up the prop to a 42mm that's as far a I'm thinking I want to go so this setup with panthers is all I will do with the Zonda...Hot over here, summer.. trade you some heat for some cold stuff😊👍🔥☃️

Thanks to this video i bought the sr80 but not the pro one, i changed all the hardware to metal one and is very good boat. I will test at 6S but at 4S is fast to play in the beach.
I'd recommend a higher C rating battery to the ESC. Eg if the ESC is rated at 40A your battery should be at least 50A so it allows the ESC to pull current at 40A max and keep the battery cool

That is some pretty dam low temperatures! Crazy and almost impossbile a 2200kv motor runing on 6s present a 36º temperature pasting 2 minutes of runtime!

Really sorry to hear that,I've done the same thing with mine and you need to download the online manual for the Vector SR80 ESC or Vector angry shark and follow all the instructions,I couldn't reset mine so I got a flycolor 150A real cheap and the program card and I now have reverse..I sold the esc from the Vector SR80 sorry that's what I did
Hey Bro awesome channel with great vids !! 👍 after watching I just purchased the SR80 PRO from Monkey. It will be my first boat although I do own 3 Traxxas Xmaxx. It will be interesting learning a new type of RC with all the mechanics etc. Keep those vids coming Bro!! 🤙💪👊 BTW I live in Australia 🇦🇺
Hi Thankyou..👍😊..cool another Australian..not many on here but the ones here have some real fast ones👀🌀💨..That's good to hear..the stock SR80 looks stunning when its brand new .I am really happy for you..one of your 4s lipos should fit it nicely..I think you've chosen a really good boat
Hi paul.. i bought this boat too after i watched your vids.. but my boat is very unstable unlike your.. even on 4s it jumps out of water often.. on 6s, it flies.. 😥😥
Hi👍😊..yes they're terrible but then I put Feilun FT011 trim fins on the boat,they're cheap off AliExpress and the the mounts bolt on and the fins are preset,these fins will fix your problem..mine used to flip over at low speed cornering was terrible now you see the difference..
@@aliffnajmi8992 I don't know how..I would adjust the angle of your strut so it points down at the back so that will push the front down also it maybe your prop has too much lift..I use a 40mm 1.9pitch prop so I don't get the wheelies.the trim tabs should be level with the underneath of the hull. I've just installed a more powerful motor in my Vector will try this out soon
I've got the sr80 pro and have an issue with it getting up to speed. It sounds like a clutch slipping in a car you can hear the motor whining but doesnt move very fast. If I lift off and hit the throttle a few times it will finally take off. Seems to work better if i slowly add to full power. Have you had any issues like that? I got a 3670 2150kv and 90a esc im about to switch to for 6s.
Sorry to hear that..maybe tighten up the motorr to shaft connector..If your going to run 6s you'll need to change the flex cable,tube and strut as the original won't cope
Ran mine on 6s now it gets on plane a lot better now. It is blazing fast skipping out of the water. I don't think it turns very good though at speed, likes to get choppy hopping around. I just slow down for turning.
@@paulcooper7162 No just running the stock shaft and fins at the moment. Its doing ok for now but Im not holding throttle. I just blip it to make 1 straight high speed pass once Im up on plane already.
Hi Andrew Thanks😊👍..really good choice of hull you got..I actually just got another new one also and I immediately changed the fins to Feilun FT011 they're black plastic and buy in a set from AliExpress Tilkiea Store,rudder turn fin trim tab kit.You can fit a bigger prop I've fitted a 44mm 1.9pitch prop and a high C 4s panther graphene 75-150c lipo..The stock bearing on rear strut fails quick on these or they pop out of the strut
@@paulcooper7162 so having a bearing for the strut on hand might be a good idea? Are they a standard size or will I need to go the aliexpress route for one?
@@TheApbling I would change the strut and flex cable as in my latest video and never have bearing failure or having to maintain the bearing it's a common failure on this boat..I don't know where to get new bearings except Hobbystation New Zealand
@@TheApbling Hi Andrew,my latest Vector SR80 I changed the strut to a 3/16 or 4.76mm and a new brass tube and cable so I could run 6s but if you look at my channel and see 5s🔥I ran stock motor on 5s and changed the strut and cable to a 4mm cable and 43mm prop and was happy with the power. I can change the struts and brass tubes when ever I feel like it but the stock tube won't fit 3/16 cable and teflon

@@paulcooper7162Hi Paul, it's a stock motor. And will try the modifications as you mentioned as well. Thanks heaps.
@@kamchan7606 oh it's stock..try those Trim fins from a Feilun FT011..can get them from AliExpress .Tilkiea Store,they sell as a rudder trim fin set very cheap
@@paulcooper7162 Terrific Thanks Paul
Was that filmed today
Hi yes it was but not the same vid as when the young men on bikes where there,the camera failed due to the SD card
Hi sir paul is the flexi shaft of vect0r sr80 pr0 is clockwise?
Hi yes,CW,positive,left
@@paulcooper7162 how about the size of the flexi shaft and tube?

sir what lipo u use for this setup?? cn mah sir??
Hi..6s 4000mah..I cannot recommend the brand of lipo as the lipo gets hot,I have changed to Turnigy Panther graphene 75-150c 4000mah and no heat,more power
@@paulcooper7162 tq sir
I am about to buy this one ( for the sea salt water)
Coz my ft012 is broken
What battery must i buy for stock one
And what i must upgrade for future? :D
Hi😊👍..4s lipo about 4000mah high c rating..best upgrade is 90A Seaking ESC and a 44mm prop 1.9pitch

@@UNCHARTEDANGLING I just got a new Vector SR80 Pro and I'm using 4s 4000mah 75-150c.. These boats are for beginner's so slow the speed claim is false
@@paulcooper7162 so it would be okay?
@@UNCHARTEDANGLING it will power it nicely but I'm not sure if the battery straps are long enough to fit over .I'm so disappointed with this boats power stock standard motor I'm heading for 6s again
Пушка просто!
This model is a remark (or rebrand idk) of ft011?
Hi no definitely not, different brand,it's the remake of the Vector Angry Shark SR80,I've repowered this boat
Did you change only the battery and motor?
Hi I changed the lipo,motor,ESC,flex cable and strut also the battery tray..I actually ran the stock motor for a while with a 44mm prop 1.9pitch and a 90Q Seaking ESC on 4s lipo and that was very quick but not like 6s power
Ok. Thank you so much. 1st time on rc boat and i like what you did
Turnigy xk3674 2200kv 1750w brushless inrunner motor. Is that ok or not. I don't know this
Are you using the stock ESC with the 6s battery?
Hi😊..😊 no this ESC is a flycolor 150A with added Capbanks from a Swordfish 300A ESC available at offshoreelectrics
Do you know which ESC is in this stock? I think I messed up the settings and changed the timing, I can only get 32 on 4s
Really sorry to hear that,I've done the same thing with mine and you need to download the online manual for the Vector SR80 ESC or Vector angry shark and follow all the instructions,I couldn't reset mine so I got a flycolor 150A real cheap and the program card and I now have reverse..I sold the esc from the Vector SR80 sorry that's what I did
Hey there, what website did you buy that boat from?
Hi😊.. AliExpress,Vector SR80 Pro ..That will be the stock standard boat,I've modified this one
Gotcha, thanks for letting me know
Hi, May I know where do you buy the front bumper for this SR 80 model
Would appreciate if you can send me the link to buy the front bumper thks !
Hi it's a front bumper from Feilun FT011 and cut the little locator tab off it and super glue it on with pressure
AliExpress Feilun FT011 parts..You'll see the triangle shaped front nose protector
Hey Bro awesome channel with great vids !! 👍 after watching I just purchased the SR80 PRO from Monkey. It will be my first boat although I do own 3 Traxxas Xmaxx. It will be interesting learning a new type of RC with all the mechanics etc. Keep those vids coming Bro!! 🤙💪👊 BTW I live in Australia 🇦🇺
Hi Thankyou..👍😊..cool another Australian..not many on here but the ones here have some real fast ones👀🌀💨..That's good to hear..the stock SR80 looks stunning when its brand new .I am really happy for you..one of your 4s lipos should fit it nicely..I think you've chosen a really good boat
Hi paul.. i bought this boat too after i watched your vids.. but my boat is very unstable unlike your.. even on 4s it jumps out of water often.. on 6s, it flies.. 😥😥
Hi👍😊..yes they're terrible but then I put Feilun FT011 trim fins on the boat,they're cheap off AliExpress and the the mounts bolt on and the fins are preset,these fins will fix your problem..mine used to flip over at low speed cornering was terrible now you see the difference..
Paul Cooper i already change the fins to ft011.. about the trim tabs.. can u show me the item pictures?
@@aliffnajmi8992 I don't know how..I would adjust the angle of your strut so it points down at the back so that will push the front down also it maybe your prop has too much lift..I use a 40mm 1.9pitch prop so I don't get the wheelies.the trim tabs should be level with the underneath of the hull. I've just installed a more powerful motor in my Vector will try this out soon
Paul Cooper alright.. tq
Hi Paul, my one doesn't reverse. How about yours? Thanks
None of them do..I got rid of my stock ESC real quick replaced with a 90A Seaking or Flycolor 150A
@@paulcooper7162 Brillant...Thanks Paul
Could you give me a full detail on parts/battery used? I got a pro and looking do this mod for sure!
Hi Jordy can you see my other recent vid with the Vector SR80 the info is in there look at the details
Bomb
Thankyou😊👍💥👀🔥😊
I've got the sr80 pro and have an issue with it getting up to speed. It sounds like a clutch slipping in a car you can hear the motor whining but doesnt move very fast. If I lift off and hit the throttle a few times it will finally take off. Seems to work better if i slowly add to full power. Have you had any issues like that? I got a 3670 2150kv and 90a esc im about to switch to for 6s.
Sorry to hear that..maybe tighten up the motorr to shaft connector..If your going to run 6s you'll need to change the flex cable,tube and strut as the original won't cope
Ran mine on 6s now it gets on plane a lot better now. It is blazing fast skipping out of the water. I don't think it turns very good though at speed, likes to get choppy hopping around. I just slow down for turning.
@@odem2002 nice one..did you fit Feilun FT011 trim fins and use a Rcboatbitz Genesis upgrade strut
@@paulcooper7162 No just running the stock shaft and fins at the moment. Its doing ok for now but Im not holding throttle. I just blip it to make 1 straight high speed pass once Im up on plane already.
@@odem2002 I'd contact the supplier
Where did you purchase your turnigy motor from?
Hobbyking
Nice mod Paul. We just got one and aren’t looking to go to 6s, but rather stay at 4. Would the stock fins and prop be sufficient or are they lacking?
Hi Andrew Thanks😊👍..really good choice of hull you got..I actually just got another new one also and I immediately changed the fins to Feilun FT011 they're black plastic and buy in a set from AliExpress Tilkiea Store,rudder turn fin trim tab kit.You can fit a bigger prop I've fitted a 44mm 1.9pitch prop and a high C 4s panther graphene 75-150c lipo..The stock bearing on rear strut fails quick on these or they pop out of the strut
@@paulcooper7162 so having a bearing for the strut on hand might be a good idea? Are they a standard size or will I need to go the aliexpress route for one?
@@TheApbling I would change the strut and flex cable as in my latest video and never have bearing failure or having to maintain the bearing it's a common failure on this boat..I don't know where to get new bearings except Hobbystation New Zealand
Thanks Paul. I’ll look into that strut and cable upgrade. You end up using a 3/16” cable then? Did you use the stock tube and Teflon liner?
@@TheApbling Hi Andrew,my latest Vector SR80 I changed the strut to a 3/16 or 4.76mm and a new brass tube and cable so I could run 6s but if you look at my channel and see 5s🔥I ran stock motor on 5s and changed the strut and cable to a 4mm cable and 43mm prop and was happy with the power.
I can change the struts and brass tubes when ever I feel like it but the stock tube won't fit 3/16 cable and teflon
What’s the prop size on that stock ?
Hi😊..the stock one for the stock outrunner motor 1750kv is a chrome plated alloy 40mm 1.4p...im using a 40mm 1.9p
Paul Cooper how are doing buddy? Thanks a friend wanted to know what his stock drive dog and prop was .
@@pitbikecookracing3324 I'm all good thanks I've taken 2 weeks holiday at a beach with friends..Good to hear from you.. we've been worried about you lot over there..The stock Vector shark and this boat has a 5mm motor shaft but a 4mm flex cable and then the rear has a 5mm shaft rather than 4.76mm..the prop is odd as it is 5mm hole
Where did you get the prop from? I can't find any 5mm bore props online anywhere
You need higher c rating you esc is demanding more power from the battery and it can’t give it that’s why the battery puffed
Now thats a zippy little thing, wow battery got hot
Thanks👍😊..I'm going to get some Panther graphenes, 2 x 6s 4000mah they will cope well and theyre like adding 7s lipo..these Turnigys are slow compared to the Panthers🚤💨
Hmm haha🙄..I priced up 2 X Panther 6s 5000mah lipos = NZ$450 then NZ tax and gst add another NZ$125 =$675 I'm broken haha🛑but on the good side I do have 2 X 3s panthers 5000mah for the Vector so the ZONDAS only getting the Turnigy Heavy duties
