Project 41" Sprintcat!

yea, I thought it would be lower $$$...bummer... I see the 4074's 2200kv for 70 + shipping at HOR and thought these big motors would be inexpensive too.

Twin Screamers

It's gonna happen like this.

Not soon enough!

Working on the port side mount today. It's HOT. Like 90+ today. Some AC in the garage, but not enough. Can't stay out there for more than an hour or two during the day.

Ha ... I hear you, almost 90 here, but I have super insulation. Shop stays mid 60s to low 70s as long as I keep it shut .... almost cold with a fan.

I should be so lucky! No insulation, just a ceiling fan and a door to the utility room where I usually stick a floor fan to grab some cool air from the house. I'm lucky to get a 10 degree drop and 100% humidity.

It's only nasty from June - Sept. The rest of the year it is really nice.

As for the sprint cat, I'm waiting for stuff, so I boxed it up and pulled out Das Boot to work on for a bit.

OK, so after all the mess and x-chromosome's diatribe...


From the grave and near departure arises a project from the ashes of dramatic discourse.

It's the 41" SprintCat w/Little Screamer and Swordfish 240 HV!

Thanks to Pete Z for making me such an excellent mount despite my best efforts to provide erroneous design specs.

10s2p x455 on 078 wire and 3/16 hard prop/strut

More to follow as time allows, but it's on Bench #3!
