Whiplash 40 Hydro,,,,,

[txboatpilot]

Here are a couple more pict's.... Getting it ready for paint,, I cut out the bulkhead and made room for the lipo packs.. Everything is moving right along..

All Speedmaster hardware from B. Blazer with the kit, as well as the turn fin.. I might try and find some different turn fins to try out later on...

You think I could run the 1527/1.5D(1500kv) on 5s successfully on a Hydra240 in the whip40?

Yea, I just could not resist the Whip 20.. These go together so easy and the fit and finish is also great.. I will start a Build thread on the Whip 20 tomarrow...

Did you get it from Brian or someone else?

[txboatpilot]

Got it from Brian.. I contacted him on RRR forums and just had him send me a request for payment through paypal.. He is a super nice guy..

Yes Sir! I do all my own custom painting in my shop... I use all House of Kolors automotive paints, they seem to turn out the color!

I am getting ready to lay down some clear on it today!!!

Hello Rich!

How things been? Just wicked on the paint! Got to see this with some clear on it.

Is that a pinstriping touch past the flames? If so, very good and you have a steady hand. I tried old school striping and it looked like my 3 year old did the paint.

Talk to you later,

Scotty

Hey Scotty,

Good to hear from you.. Yes that is pinstiping paint... I wanted it to look like it had been "Whiped" with a "Lash".... LOL It came out well, I need to practice some more, so I can start doing lettering with it...

[txboatpilot]

Well I went to put on some clear and,,,,, I thought that the bottom looked like a good drawing board!! So here is what I ended up with.. I will clear it all and be done..

[Skunk Works]

Oh boy that is schweet Rich! You are getting real good with that pinstripe brush.
I need to retool for painting, will send you a mail about the HOK paint.

Just a super job.
