I haven't ordered anything yet for this hull.
I have a Mean Machine I'm putting together first.Comment

I think the hull is made from a lightweight polyester, a thin thread and leads to less rigidity. Rule of thumb is the thicker the thread, the more strength and stiffness.Stay in front and don't get sprayed!Comment

Scott, you are right on the money!!!Originally posted by Skunk Works View Post
That is exactly what it is...
I have reinforced many areas with fiberglass sheet (thicker thread) and 20min. epoxy... I will reinforce more with carbon fiber sheet.....
For now it is much more sturdy than when I received it....

I have never ran a coil..
I had one laying around from a trade, so I might try it on the first run. Just to see if it works...

Were on the hull did you reinforce with the added fiberglass?
I don't see any in the pic.
Personally, I'd wait for the jacket to arrive.Comment

I did not go crazy with the glass.. I used some under the motor aera, stuffing tube area and were the servo mounts is...Also ran long strips down the sides, were the hull joins together..Originally posted by Yeeharacing View Post
It is hard to see in the picture, the epoxy still has that wet look...
I have plenty of water jackets, I just want to try the coil once... For the first 30sec to 1min. run it will be NO PROBLEM!! That is a Hacker 8XL in there, not a Fiegao...
Yeeharacing, how is yours coming along?Nothing like keeping you lipos warm and your prop wet!!Comment

Rich, sure looks like not much room to work under the hatch.
For a short test, you'll be fine withthe coil.Stay in front and don't get sprayed!Comment

I'm still accumulating parts.
She's kind of back burner at the moment, I'm trying to get my Mean Machine in the water first. I'm hoping it will ship this coming week to me. It's in paint right now.
I've worked out a deal for the scale rudder but I'm looking for more information on the speedmaster struts. I've been doing alot of measuring.
I'm going with Feigao or Nemesis 10xl twins, two hydra 120's /240's if I have the money.
I already have a spektrum dx3 system with two rx.
So radio equipment is set.Comment

Is the MM modeled after the MTI I wonder??Comment

You definately can't say you didn't see my boat.
You hit me it's intentional! :D
