    Funny you mention that.... I took it for its first run last week and it blew over. I broke the top and had to order another one. I will upload a video asap when the top comes in.

    Raise your prop strut as high as possible, you might need to egg out the hole to get it high enough, and gently bend the stuffing tube to get some down thrust angle. This will give you more stern lift and reduce the blowovers.

    I have a stock Blackjack 29, runs mid 50's on 6s.

    this has the steerable drive. I am soon going to upgrade to the rudder and strut. I am soon going to get 2 lipos as well
