Aeromarine Titan 29" My 2nd build

[Brushless01]

Wow nice paint scheme ! Personally if it was me I would leave it for a day or 2 to harden

[Alexgar]

May want to consider an m445...............

I agree worked for me today

[millzee]

I just ordered a few more goodies to make up a reasonable order with the cooling jacket. I got the b&s m545 to try otherwise I have a a x640, x642, x440/442/445. I also got a m447 but I think I'll be useing that on the 35" pirate.

I'm making progress with my painting attempt, I thought I'd share a few pic's of the color's be I give it a lite rub with wet 1200 paper and add the decals and clear coat. Should I wait a few days for the paint to fully harden b4 taking the next step or should I just get it done now, the paint's been dry for about 3 1/2hours??

Nice paintjob!

Reminds me alot of my Vintage Latrax Cigarette boat................did this scheme about 2 years ago.................

OMG, is that cherry red with metallic charcoal I'm seeing there? Gee it's hard to be original when ya come into a hobby so late. Well done, it looks great!

Hi, Looking good, I let mine dry 1 day and I place graphics on before clear coating.
Attached another Titan 29 paint scheme. I own 2 and I am very happy with mine.
Keep up your good work. Regards

thanks for the nice feedback guy's. I got the lid sprayed and some electronics done today so I'll wait until tomorrow before I get the hull ready for the clear coat.

You will probably want to stay away from your bigger props. I basically had the same setup with a CC Hydra 240 and my caps ran pretty warm, too warm for the summer. My final prop was the 440 3 blade..Mine ran 53 mph and looked as if it could handle more speed. Your hardware setup will determine how fast you will be able to take that boat......Like Fluid says , it does run light....Here is a couple pics of mine. If I built this boat again I would use my own motor mount and put closer to the transom, run a offset rudder, use ''Super epoxie" and build my own turn fins from 2mm CF.....Basically how I am doing the Rico...ha ha...My old Titan was able to handle 50 + with never a blow over in semi calm weather ! If you want a link to the vid I can do..

I tried the x442 and it worked ok but everything was cool went 445 545 646 and was really happy with the latter two warmed up my wire alittle but with a 200 amp discharge rate and 2 water pickups it came in alright

Thanks for the advise, I have to wait for batteries and a few other things and then I'll start trying a few, I ordered the m545 which from with all the reading I found a few folks were happy with it.

Don't lauph at my nareration, I had just sold the boat to a friend and got excited for him and tried to keep him from crashing it...ha ha !....He was running my batts in it !http://www.youtube.com/user/rrandydduke#p/u/LXUVom1naA......this is the link to my channel...find the " file 0068 mov.'' on the play list. 53 mph Titan !

Hi Millzee, Your boat is looking good. Thought I would remind you to place some
flotation foam in the forward section of the hull. Just so you will not loose your
boat should you have a spill. Regards
