be meaning to put some pics up from day one, better late then never
hardware is from hotr, its some really nice stuff for a good price
-the strut nose cone is 1/4" so i used a small piece of 1/4" brass then i was able to use my 7/32 to run through all the way up to the motor , no slop, i am using .187 flex with no teflon, (strut is 3/16 bearing)
- for awhile i could not commit to installing the hardware because of the rear of the boat makes offset hardware difficult mount, and i wanted a clean look. so instead of mounting the rudder bracket to the hull which did not leave me much to mount to i filled the center hole where the pushrod would go through with jb weld , flip flopped the rudder piece and drilled a single hole through the jb weld and used the through bolt system for the strut to attach the rudder bracket , done.
- filled the front of the hull with expanding foam( warning to all that use the foam use the type for windows and doors it does not expand like the others, and only use a little at a time).
- castle 1518 1800 kv, turnigy 180 esc, 2x 4s 5000 flightmax lipos, prop?
-just need a few items, coupler, servo mount , 10&8 awg wire( cause the lengh of the hull)
where the motor lies and the batts all the way back is 32% cog, this is where i'll start
should not be to much longer and hopefully post my first vid
