HJ's Mini Geico Cat,,,

[Rumdog]

What will power be, sir? And, yes I meant offset the rudder. Set it so the blade is even with the inside edge of the starboard sponson. I have a motor that would be awesome for this on 2s btw. I'll give you an awesome deal on it if interested. I wanna see this little kitty fly!

Looks AWESOME Jerry!

the tunnel is just over 3'' wide and the prop i think is a 427,,,

You'll want the rudder offset to the right of the prop enough that full deflection in either direction doesn't put the rudder blade into the prop.

How wide is the tunnel? How big of a prop do you plan on running?

[HYDROJERRY]

So keep it straight but move it all over a few mm,,,not the rudder,,,,if i put the strut normal and more the rudder over how far can it go,,, i asume not all the way to one side of the keel..

[wparsons]

how far off center can i go and wont the stuffing tube under the hull being turned screwup the way it runs,,,,

I think rumdog meant the rudder, offsetting the strut won't take it out of the propwash. :D

If you do offset the strut, only put it over a few mm, and offset the motor and stuffing box too.

[HYDROJERRY]

did you fix the crap on the sides,,cant see it in the pics,,,just make a balsa hatch,,or PM Befu and see if he has another he could sell ya,,,whats the paint sceme going to be???

[Rumdog]

YES! Get it entirely out of the propwash if you can.

[HYDROJERRY]

Do you guys think i should offset the strut alittle?????
