ML Boatworks- Winston Eagle Lobster "Extreme Series" 1/8th kit-8910- Build Thread

[meangenesracing]

Just got my 1/8 scale today. WOW, going to be very light. Mike did a fantastic job (as usual) on this frame kit.

I also have one of these and almost ready to apply the deck skins, what's your plans for power?

Thinking of using one of my Scorpion 4035/800's on 10s. Take up less space in that already small tub, and will keep the COG down low. That's the plan anyhow.

You must plan on using 2 5s lipo packs correct? Will you have enough mah for a race?

[Agitator]

2 5s 6000mah packs, yeah, it's enough :) This boat is going to be quite a bit lighter than my T-4 and that's what I run in it.

Well, I am finally back at building this boat. Been on a long break from building, but finally finding some time. Here is where I am now. I ordered some 1/2" and 3/8" carbon rod and collars today, and the cowling is getting ordered today as well. I will be finishing up the ride pads tonight. Enjoy, Mike

Looking good Mike I am hopefully going to have a bit of time to glue up some pieces on my kit this weekend!
