first cobra 2 FE build

[dan hutchinson]

well i finally got all the parts to build my own FE boat. most people that know me, know im a nitro guy but here goes
cobra 2 with the larger radio box already cut for FE
OS lower
hyperformance adapter
ul-1 motor
ul-1 speedcontroller
hitec hs645mg servo
4S 5000 turnigy nana tech battery (ordered and waiting on delivery)
all went well on the build was real easy drilled 3 holes for large brass tubing (motor wires)
cables for stering
and large tubing for water cooling.
i paid extra attention to how it went together, because i wanted to be able to remove the whole radio box if nessasary. any comments or opinions are welcome. also what prop to start with, i dont want to fry the speedcontroller.

Looks good Dan. You might want to start with an 42x55. I have been using M445 on my PS295 with the UL1 motor and UL1 esc with the OS lower.

your post isnt clear !! will i be o/k with the props that hugh sugested. i cant afford another speed controller right now and im hoping to get alot of time on the one i got.

[ron1950]

yes it will fly with either prop and be cool

Use the 42x55 prop to start with. Never had any problems with it.
