The Zonda is just a twin 6S setup 🤣🤣 It's not a 12S setup as suggested by the title. The zonda is a fun boat , running a Carbon/Kevlar version myself with twin 3974 size 2200Kv motors and 180A Seaking's on 5s 8000mah each side.

The Zonda is a Catamaran style and Pursuit is called a Mono. The trim tabs prevent hooking while in a turn. Cats don't need trim tabs because they ride on top of the water and don't "lean" into the turn. If you put a camera on each you will know exactly what i mean. Cool boats! Love the Zonda

Trim tabs are first and foremost there to extend the hull. You use them to prevent chine walk and you can also use them to settle the bow in the rough.

@@AB-80X what is a chine walk and the term hooking while in a turn where the trim tabs would prevent this. I got the arrow 05 and having fun with it. Got the Volantex atomic catamaran on a freighter bound for California and a Zonda with 12% off $630 waiting to ship out of china.

@@harsep Chine walk explained. www.speedboatsim.com/chine-walk-tech/ Hooking in a turn refers to the incident where the bow digs in during the turn and thus causes the boat to swap ends, i.e spin out. This is especially something to be aware of with stepped bottom hulls that run flat and cats. It usually occurs in step bottom mono hulls when the drives are at too much negative trim during a turn, and thust causing bow steer. Straight bottom mono hulls are much less prone to this.as they settle more evenly in the water when trimmed negatively. However, a straight bottom mono at positive trim is more suceptible to barrel roll in a turn. Pros and cons with everything. Cats present other issues, as they can barrel roll, hook a sponson tip, spin out and flip end over end etc. Google is your friend, and so is youtube. Have fun.

@@AB-80X thanks for the rapid reply. It was a year ago that you posted on this channel and I would assume you are still in this hobby. Been flying RC planes and drones mainly the Dji phantom 1 to the 4 pro and dji spark, mavic air, mavic pro and pro 2 with the hasselblad camera and my tiny mini mavic air. Got two float planes the Dynam Sea Wind and HK TL2000 float plane which led me and my friend to boats now. Do you use an inflatable boat for retrievable ? Got the Intex 2 man 200 but a hassle to lug around to our lake. Thinking of using the drone with magnets to a fishing line and a magnet to the inside bottom of the hull if it capsize. I know the Zonda and the Volantax atomic are cats and doesn't right itself if flipped. You have any other ideas for retrievable methods?

@AB-80X5 жыл бұрын
If you want to learn about which type of hull do what best etc. you should read about real race boats. Cats are faster as they pack air between the sponsons. This also mean they can be more unstable, and they have a much greater tendency to blow over. However, they are very fast and more stable at very high speeds compared to V hulls. V hulls on the other hand, are very good in the rough, and they are also more stable in turns as they can lean and carve into the turn. They do tend to get more unstable and will begin to chine walk when they are at their limit, or not trimmed right. You can look "chine walk" up online, too much to explain. V hulls are more sensitive to the effect of prop torque as well in single prop applications, especially when the propeller is surfaced. The twisting force of the prop will try to roll the boat, but when only half the prop is in the water, it also has a tendency to "paddle wheel" the boat sideways. Think of the wheels on the sides of an old steam boat, but turned 90 degrees. While the propeller provide forward thrust and lift, a single surfacing prop will also try and move the boat sideways. You should experiment with the twin motor setup on the cat however. When the prop spin out, the stern of the boat is settled a bit, but it's slower, whereas when the props spin inward, it provides more overall lift, especially in the transom. As we say in offshore racing, "spin them in to win", but it can upset the boat. Adding blades will also provide more lift in the transom, everything else being equal. Adding blades will often slow the boat down, but make it handle better. However, the speed lost when going from a two blade to a three blade, can often be found from a reduction in diameter - this will also settle the stern a bit. If you find that the boat seems a tad unstable at speed, keeping the pitch, but reducing the diameter and adding a blade can often help. An example of this is going from a 44x1.4p two blade prop to a 38.5x1.6p three blade prop, perhaps with a bit more rake. Rake, not to be confused with pitch, is how much the blades are tilted back on the prop. Adding rake, means that the prop bites the water a bit harder which reduces prop slip, but it also adds drag and slows the boat down. It can be useful to install a prop with more rake if the boat has a hard time carrying the bow. Catamarans usually don't need a lot of rake as the cushion of air they ride on, carry the boat, which means they don't need a lot of bow lift. They are what we in the boating world call air entrapment hulls. V bottoms on the other hand, rely on the water resistance to lift the hull out of the water, and they need help from the prop for this. You can always try and play around with trim and battery placement, but it's also important to remember that prop rake can help a lot. A prop is not a one-size-fits-all, so it's good to have some options to test. If you google a bit, especially about cleaver style props, you can find a ton of information regarding all things propeller. Pitch, rake, cupping and so forth. What does it do, and how can it be used. Good luck with your boats man, they are sweet runners.
