Brother this setup is SICK !
What a machine!! It’s gonna be a beast
Glad you made this video. I got one also but haven't started on it yet
Big B, that's a big B quality build video.😊
That park pond won't do much for all that power!
Can't wait till I see it run!!
Awesome bruv, I found when I was setting up the push pull steering it would always bind and the servo would always fight to get back to neutral. Tried lubricants but just couldn’t get any more play on them, looking forward to seeing it run bruv 🤙
Nice boat BigB. Regarding the left driveline shaking; try it without the prop, but with that prop nut. I guess it would still shake. Most likely that prop nut is not centered well. These are not worth much. Better use a lock nut! Just my advice 😎
Found the issue, it was the bullet nut outta balance, she's good to go now c-mon
@@IRONCLADRCYes, I had the same issue on my boats. These nuts look nice, but they're often out of wack
Nice boat. I used steering cable boots to keep the water out, and a water block on the steering servo to keep it cool. The water block on servo is a huge upgrade.
Siiick! you got the Animal!😍 Let's freaking gooo!
The set up movie. Loved every minute. Thanks for all the close ups.
I also liked you showing how you put cf in the front of the boat. Wasn't what I was thinking and your way sure is easier. Thanks
Excellent video. Not to long at all in my opinion. 👍
love the maintenance videos! i use to kind of slap my boats together at one point, when i finished my 6s 1000mm long mono hull i first ran the boat in a big dirty river near my house, first pass an it spat the 5mm flex shaft out to the bottom of the river an i watched the current of the river start taking it, stupidly i jumped in, got the boat an got back out, never again 😂 also took months to find another 5mm flex shaft to fit, now runs a shaft saver and haven't had an issue since
Why sorry for the long video ? W're waiting for it !
Sounds like the servo is binding. Just my opinion. Love the video and can't wait to see it run. Bg4l
Should be some great videos with this boat. Congrats
Amazing how similar the Animal Cat is to my Zonda. A few differences. My water pickups are flush with the bottom of the boat towards the back. 4 pickups… each motor and ESC have their own.
I like how the zonda has the quad thruhull pick-ups, probably more efficient
Looking forward to seeing how you mount the GPS for speed runs. I've read that they wont pickup a signal through carbon fiber.
After the servo tray and one battery tray broke loose in my carbon-kevlar Animal II, I used epoxy and glass microspheres on the seems, trays, motor mounts, etc. I spent a lot of time hoping to ironclad it and then it flipped and ripped the rear mount of the outdrive out of the hull. I had Bill build mine with Castle Hydras but we could not get the 2200 Kv motors to not cog at full throttle with the 6 pole motors so went back to the 200A Hobbywings. The servo in mine also made a lot of noise. I had many issues with my original boat. Bill replaced the boat with his personal boat but I haven’t use it much yet. Bill scolded me for reinforcing various components of the original boat, using QS8s instead of EC8s, and using a plastic break away bolt in rudder when I sent the original boat back. I wouldn’t have reinforced things if they had not broken and here in Florida, there are many turtles so rudder needs to break free. My boat had inward spinning props like my Geicos. They are nice boats but not as robust as I had hoped for the money
Thanks for your review, very helpful insight. BG4L
Glad you are reinforcing lock-tighting everything. I didn’t go through my Animal when I first received it because I had a custom built and assumed things were lock-lighted. The rudder came apart on the first run and caused a bit of damage. Bill told me not to lock tight anything but I did exactly as you did in this video but was scolded for it when he received my damaged boat. Not a bash on Bill… just learning lessons others can draw from your and my experience
brave touching the props while boat is hot
My dad always said if your gonna be dumb you'd better be tough lol.
She's a Beauty
if I drank every time I said 'thats what she said" in this video it would have been a lethal game lol
hey bro u think u can get a Blackjack 29 for the channel
Those are hard boats to find, check out the veles playlist, it's very similar in setup and prop choice
Nylon bolt, probably M3.
Props should be rotating inwards.
Thanks, planning on running both directions to see what I like best. 👍
Styrofoam blocks are all I use in the zelos for battery blocks.
Otherwise, my packs just sit in the sponsons.
And you see how it runs.
Aside from the buoyancy it adds, it's a nice shock absorber!
Can't wait to see it on the water!
#BG4L!
Yes sir I live by my foam blocks
Why didn't you just do a resin fill with carbon fiber chopped up for the tips?
Trying to keep it light
@@IRONCLADRC that makes sense! Appreciate ya bro! Mine should arrive next week. Just not the oxidean branded version! Can't wait to see what tp motors it ends up with and the xlx2 😉😉😂😂
Beautiful Big B
Damn, those props look like trash, why wouldn’t he send it with the nice cnc props he sells?
Prolly so u got to buy his props still 😂
@@Pancakes620 that’s the shitty part. Already spend $1500 on the boat and he sends shit props, come on now
Well I know u can’t tweak cnc props very much so maybe these come with props u can work how u want them ¿
@@Pancakes620 there’s no working them how you want them, all you can do is sharpen and balance and cnc props come that way from the factory
Quicksilver PTFE marine grease.💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
MIP tools.
Nuff said.
If you dont have any Nylon breakaway screws, I might..
Lemme know if you wanna replace that stainless screw on the rudder..
Ill give ya one.
I have some, about to throw it in the rudder, m3 & m4. Thanks for offering. I sure appreciate it. BG4L
