Actually it goes scale speed when fully powered. Has a realistic weight and bow wave. Turns with that lean for a high speed tight turn. Course for realism the camera shutter speed needs to be slowed down 25x for realism. I have several videos with that in mind already posted on my channel.

Maybe add ballast to reduce the roll? If you can without changing the water line.
@16FEET5 ай бұрын
Ballast is added along the centerline and lower bilge keel sides. The problem is there is no ballast tanks to shift the water ballast constantly. The real ships use AI to control the ballast tanks and keep the ship roll to a minimum for flight operatons. Not possible for a model . The only thing I could do is attach a deep weighted keel to minimize the roll.
