Bens got yet another Cat out

[tiqueman]

I think RCKong has one in his hands but Im not sure if its built yet. Id imagine if its not, it will be soon.

Has anyone bought the 34" Cheetah from ben ? any pics?

We have one in the club. He hasn't been put together yet. I was surprised how ridged it is laterally. No twist at all. Nice sharp lines. It's a little big for LSO where we thought we would use it. For P it should be a beast.

What's the LOA? Is the Cheetah over 34"?

[T.S.Davis]

I think it's 34 on the button but it's super wide. The actual ride surface is shorter of course. It really is a beautiful boat just not sure about LSO. We'll beat the pee out of it later this spring.

i just finished placing the order for mine ,ill be posting pics when it arrives and possibly opening a build thread on it .I plan on powering it with a 4050 tpower 1600kv on 6`s what you guy think?

Cool. Thanks guys. Just want a definitive work on whether it's legal for the "P" classes.

1600kv is a bit high for 6s for my liking but I don't know those motors. Might work.

It really is a P sized boat. Ordinarily I would steer guys away from 6s on a boat this small but it's built really well as far as I can tell. It's not likely to explode in a flip like a Geico (no offense to Proboat, I have 2). Wish I had some handling information on one of these to say for sure. Clear as mud huh?

Hey Ray,
Are you bringing the new Cheetah out this Sunday? I'd really like to see it!

[ray schrauwen]

It's barely started but, if you want to see the hull thats o.k. too.

I'm sanding the seam & getting it ready for primer. Need to inlay CF too. That with 2 other boats that need sanding, priming & painting.


....ooops wrong ray, wrong boat....
