    Man that's jammed full of gear!! The shot with the ESC beside the servo really puts it into perspective on how big the ESC's really are!

          It has taken me two weeks of thinking about it while working to figure out how to fit it all in.

            I have the inner cowl done in white styrene and I am doing the first test fitting after I have it trimmed to size I will try the outer cowl fit to the inner cowl.

              Trimmed fitted and taped in place. I could make the inner cowl in clear of carbon fiber/fiberglass too.



              Outer cowl fitted, appears to work fine.


              I really love the wrap one more time a full shot.

                Are you going to run it before you send it out? It looks awesome!

                And I think TP is banned so no worries.

                  I am planning on checking it out in the pond before I send it out. Spent most of the day on little stuff, new switches, antenna mounts and prop work.

                    Nice work on that sub-hatch, Randy! That boat is going to absolutely SCREAM! I know guys are hitting 70 with a single 2215 in that hull.

                      Thanks now that I have a mold I can do it in any material. i.e. for future builds

                          Nothing great, I ran it and there was only Damon and myself so I only got a short clip nothing good enough to show. Possibly next time out at Kaiser cove if it is not gone before I get back out to Fremont.

                            Randy I cant believe you have it finish. You must have a good crew of boat builders over there. I'm still pushing to finish one boat. Keep up the good work.
