Lynx (bobkat's evil "twin")

[peells]

I know beyond a shadow of a doubt there will be NO vibration the props actually do require balancing on both of them the one blade would always point down no matter what so I put an end to that now they stay where ever you put them.

[peells]

Well Today I finished the Rudder system and polished and mounted it with pictures!!! and yes I still need to finish the paint work but I figured I had better finish hole drilling first, the control rod hole and an antenna hole, if you see a black dot on the transom that is where I am going to drill the hole for the control rod. after that is done then I will mount the servo and hook everything up.

cant wait to see some vid of this lil guy ripping!

[peells]

It should really scoot running 2-11.1 lipos in parallel with twin 3200 Kva outrunners and matching 30 amp esc's

[peells]

Oh Yea twin x430 octura props (counter rotating toward the inside.) Hand made rudder package (by me) and modifyed prop struts with 3/16" bearings using 3/16" x 1/8" stepped prop shaft, on lmy next build I am thinking of going to 1/8" flex and seeing how that works out if I can get it in right and left lay.

[ace028]

we may need to look into using wire drive setups instead.

looks good by the way!

[Rumdog]

are you using 400 size outrunners? I used a milehigh rc 3300kv outrunner in an extended renegade and it was outrageously fast!

[peells]

Yes they are 400 size, and those Riggers are quite fast my son has his that I painted for sale here on the fourum black w/ flames

[peells]

Here is a little more on the hatch repair and you also can see that I have added the holes for the rudder control rod and the antenna tube.









Well now to finish sand the repair coat of paint and then on to re-striping. yee haw then clear lets hope I do not break the *^&$%^$#^ thing again.

[screwball]

are you running water cooling? does that rudder have a pickup in it? have you thought about selling them?

[peells]

No I am not water cooling as of yet on this one but the idea has crossed my mind, I do have a couple of water cooling plates I could use for the esc's but the outrunner motors will have to get warm, as far as selling goes were you talking about the rudder package? or the whole boat? I have considered making the rudders and selling them but the chineese sell them soo cheap there is just no compeating with that mine would have to cost lots more or it just would not be worth it to me. now if there was a lot of intrest I might tool up for them, right now I am making them all by hand and using a drill press.

[peells]

Hatch repair finished!!!! Now all I have to do is a little paint cleanup around the stripes and shoot clear right on then I will be finished with all except the re-mounting of my hardware

[Avanti]

This is a beauty Peter can't wait to see it run.
mine is still just sitting in a box

[peells]

Hey John Glad to see you are still out there look at Ace's as well then maybe you can get motivated, Ace is now in North Carolina at Fort Brag

[screwball]
