        Hammer I really couldent get it back to you in a reasonable time frame. I was suposed to do a couple for someone else and didnt because of my lack of free time. It is quite simple. I would be willing to coatch you through one. :).

            So those wont be waterproof either then, is it possible to use like silicone to seal the ends. it would defeat your cooling fan but if you didnt use the fan would that be ok?

              I gotem....Thanks a mill. Water proofing these is not really possible unless you have some type of potting epoxy. I have gotten this unit wet 4 times. Dryed it out each time and it's been fine. No worries.

                  some silicon has acid in it and it can destroy the etchings on the boards. use conformal coatings or the special epoxy.

                    I am back to work tonight. I hope to knock the rest of the work out. Maybe even get a test in this weekend.

                        Not much going on with this. The heat has me exhausted & sick @ night. The AC is down in the machine and I was told it's not being replaced any time soon. It was 115 degrees in the cab today...111 yesterday. Lost 6 pounds in 2 days. I have written it up as a saftey issue incase I pass out @ the controls. It's going to be a long summer. This blows

                          Last night I got the esc mounted, servo installed, rudder bracket bolted on and the cooling system finished. Tonight I have to prep the supervee for shipping. If I have time left over I may get her finished for a wednesday test.

                            99% done.

                            Well the pictures show it all. I just have to pick up the right servo horn. Velcro the battery trays and set up the radio. That is an octura v series 3 blade. I may get her in the water Wednesday :D.

                                Dude I feel for you, I work around a prefab concrete kiln somtimes its around 120 degrees in the building, I go outside to cool off, not much difference since its 100 degrees today. I hate summer so bad I actually look forward to fall and winter.

                                The jolly looks great! what motor you have in it?
