80 pound Terrova with Ipilot, only way to fly and you will never regret it. Ilink if you are wanting to go that way is really nice. I use the US2 all the time with good results.

General rule MINIMUM of 3lbs per foot of boat. Always wanna go more if you can afford it. My uncle (back in the day)...."You know why I have a 101? Because thats as big as they make." Of course u need to take in considerations of the amount of batteries. Rees Guide has given EXCELLENT advice! You can't go wrong with going by what he says.

Gotta agree w/LowePro..there is no such thing as too big a T/M..if they made a 48v I would have one!!
