I really love your quad build........
What is the CG % ?
How do you attach your hatch ?
(tape/bolts?)
On my 12s Plett powered Conquest, I used an "Avenger Pro" hatch.
I call it a "Conquest Pro" .
This is an exact fit hatch and I prefer the suave appearance.
I allso believe it is slightly lower wind drag as well.

Thanks Jason and hope yours is going well too, been in the hundreds for a few weeks now and add another 10 deg for the oil patch..lol. and wife is keeping me lined outOriginally posted by JMSCARD View Post
Everything is ready but one hang up , one of my castle motors is from a diffrent mill run and isn't up to quality like my other 3, I think it is a older version . Waitng on a replacement.

My CG is @ 30% and The 10s was only a test,Originally posted by rearwheelin View PostI think cg was close to 50% and hatch tape is holding the lid Thanks for the coment , I remember watching your youtube vid of the Conquest on 10s
I really did not like the 10s and returned to 12s.

I have been trying to do some completion work on the boat. Its taking me a while because of the heat in the garage and buisey work and family schedule.
Currently have been installing motors and have been taping out the 3mm mounting threads to 4mm for better holding power and strength since am only using 2 bolts a moror. All 8mm bullets ( 20 pair !) to keep power flowing. Thanks Brian for helping me last saturday to get things moving.
Shouldn't be to long now . Will have video and some pics for sure ."Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction."
