Got a little bit of vid for y'all to chew on...Hope y'all like it half as much as I did!! Still waiting on my new props, and I need to get the motors run in some before I start tweaking on them. This run is with the needles settings still pretty fat, but still got good speed out of them!!!

Thanks Carlos!!!!

Woodie, get a glimpse of your DEFEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was surely an impressing run in choppy and windy conditions, Sir Dude!
Did you register the top speed?

Though my common sense says beware of that evil Kat, my inner doggie still is growling: I'll kill that Kat!

- Well. We shall see - some day... *ahemm*

Cheers!
Woodie

Holy Cr&p!
You shouldnt have got scared and stopped the vid till the end Woodie!lol
51.3 MPH and still tuning, not bad for a first time back out.
Who said Homebuilts arent fast!

Thanks Guys...I've still got alot of room to tweak Could get real interesting!!!!!!

Dude!
Hold your texan horses. You are in for a hard and stony road to reach 60 mph+ as my woofing Kat Killing Hammer will hit at its first test run - some day that is...
Be warned: The Hammer is NOT a boat. It's a wild engine with a boat around it!

Cheers & good luck!
Woodie.

I hear ya Woodie!!! I thought that same thing. But remember what you told me... These are One-Offs that we're building, and they're going to have bugs!! I honestly hope you don't have to go through the pains I did, but only time will tell. I do want to know if what Oz said was true or not... Did ya get scared and turn the video off before ya got to the part where I said how fast it run? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA You don't need to be ashamed, it scared me too... and I was there when it happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Between you and me Oz... We both know he did... but he'll never admit it!!!!

OK Woodie... With an onboard GoPro camera and new H-50 props, I hit 54.6 MPH!!!! 2nd run, I took the camera off, right engine was bogging a little, not coming up to R's like the left engine was...HIT 55.1 MPH!!!!
I also came up with a little trick I'm going to try... I'm going to take 1/32" plexiglass, sand the bottom of the sponson off and glue the plexi to the bottom of the sponsons!!! Apply a little Rainex (for your auto windshield) then see what it will do! Should be a helluva ride then.
Until then... I hope ya enjoy this!!!

Took her out for some more tuning runs this morning...55.8 MPH!! Right side engine still not coming up to rev's. I'm going to take the modified 644's off and try some 257's on her.

Aaargh! This mad Kat is unbearable!
My shrink told me that I was OK, and I've been taking all of my pills like a good boy - and then THIS comes up!!!
I really hope my shrink has extra hours and stronger pills for me this time! - Just to save me from the ultimative lunacy

No honestly: This looks really impressive to me. What sort of cam (resolution) did you use?

Cheers!
Woodie.

It's the Hero GoPro Surf edition... 1280 bit resolution... Superior camera over any thing else I've seen!!! It doesn't just film, it takes pics automatic...every 2 seconds every 5 seconds and every 10 seconds. Even takes 3-5 shot blast pics.. Go to youtube and put Hero GoPro onboard footage, everyone's using them now...
