Rearwheelins Rumdog Re Do Rico 31" HD Speed Version

[rearwheelin]

I got this hull from a long time experienced FE vet here who is on break from the hobby currently . I plan on fixing this one up special with things that more than likely aren't necessary . High power and semi good turning. That's a CC 1717 in there I will probably get rid of. It will be a slow build let's see what happens :blah: :noidea:

I would want that 1717 except mounts are hard to find for it....

We will be waiting on the build thread! Less wiring this time?? lol

I can Make you a nice mount .

[rearwheelin]

I am going to make a 1717 mount for a deep v and post picks soon. I will keep my templates for future mount should anyone want one for a fee.

[rearwheelin]

Someone was saying you can't hardly find 1717 mounts . If you have those troubles you can't call Uncle Rearwheelin :buttrock:


The mount is in raw form I will bling it up later :beerchug:

Thanks luck it's made to rock your face off ! lol

[Spartanator]

Wow, that's a nice mount.
I wish I would have seen it before I spent some $ at Kintec and OSE....

I'm thinking about doing a run on them. China is hard to compete against though .131001

[Spartanator]

It would be cool but I am not sure how many would get it.... I would prefer to have it made here in the States, even if would cost a chunk of change. I might have to buy another hull for that Leo. 4092 now....lol
Would you do one with a rear support? My boats are subject to waves from big boats... lol

I can do a rear support but I would get the Chinese one from kintec more than likely . These mounts are strong enough to run with no support if the motor can is up to the task. If you you like send me a long motor and I can see how I would go about making the rear support . I may need to modify the side plates a little for a rear support. I would advise a rear support on the real long motors although I have run 1527's with no support and no issues after crashes although I have seen pics of what can happen with no support .

[rearwheelin]

I want to get rid of the stinger drive and go with a strut setup . I have built a couple monos in the past with struts and never did a flood tube . Adjusting strut height was always a pain. I bought a stick of red pex shark bite tubing at the Depo that I think will be perfect !

I just sent the old setup back in time ! lol131004

Mount looks real nice! I think Dave @ HRC does the 1717 mount too, I don't see it on his site but I'm almost positive he does one.

Thank you !

Been too busy this past week, couldn't keep up with you, looks great. Them motor mounts are lovely. I see how easy it is to take the motor out with the front plate.:buttrock: Also is this boat going to have a wet tube, the transom center hole is rather large...

It will have a wet tube for the extended strut I'm putting on it . It may be a little bit before I get too far into the build . I kind of need to earn more boat money lol

I'm working on perfecting the mount JIC others may want one hint hint :tape:

If I ever get to my ML 400 build.......:unsure::crying:

[rearwheelin]

On the left is a TP5650 mounted to the first 3 production components templated from the original and has the motor plate in hydro form , these parts will interchange with each other and be duplicated the same. It also can bolt up standard 25mm and 6 bolt 30-35mm . The universal bolt pattern is extra time and $$ . Pic your one pattern or spend more and bolt them all up ! Ok I'm dreaming again lol :drool: :tongue_smilie:

They look SOOO good, I don't know which motor to use yet, I wanted a CC 1717, but was told that will be too big. I was adviced to use a Neu 1527, but I have not looked at the hull for so long and it's been stored at my Mom's.
Will the standard one come with a roll of holes on the side plate for epoxy grabbing?

[rearwheelin]

It will ! It will have all the holes as the original and will probably look even better. I haven't completed the side plate template fully yet but adding holes to it is the next step.

I'm pretty darn excited about this mount ! :thumbup:

My short $150 56mm TP motor is rated at 4500 watts continuous and 8400 watts peak. This mount will have no troubles with that . The mount is 2" tall and I can drop the bolt patterns lower should you want a single pattern and a long motor so you can get better clearance .

[rearwheelin]

The one on the bottom has one extra epoxy hole than the original on top. I got crazy with the holes on the production cut out trying to figure out the production pattern but it was a fail ! lol the original is a much more optimal approach lol I will make a duplicate of the holly one pm me if anyone is in interested in it . These epoxy holes will be in the final design.

This is the updated side plate. It's what they will look like.131146

You just let me know when you need one Luck I'm going to give you a nice discount ! Just PM me when your ready.

Awesome, I will let you know as well.

[rearwheelin]

Awesome, I will let you know as well.

I have a low pro mount I designed for a 1527 to fit in a H&M Intruder . I kept my spec sheet on it . This was my original one. So I got you covered if this new one is too big. I will probably make these ones again too, but aluminum :)

PM me your address so I can get the 4092 sent out!

Thanks ! PM sent ! I think peoples hang up with the mount is no rear support so this is a good opportunity to implement one ! :thumbup:

No problem!
I do to, this is my opinion: I believe some like the CF because it does have some give IF they have a real bad crash and it looks nice. The mount could be painted or even wrapped (maybe a HyrdoDip would work too) so it could match the paint. Maybe we could work a trade (plus $) on that 4092 for the 1717.....

[rearwheelin]

Are you looking for a indestructible layout ? Then Rearwheelins "SAW Boat Shenanigans" drop in unit might be for you ! LMAO ! This thing should keep you on the lake unless you break your boat in half ! :cool:
It's still a work in progress .....

Now on to new drop in unit specific side plates for the motor mount .

[rearwheelin]

Getting very excited about the new drop in unit. I have had a couple days to kick around some design improvements . I threw the first one together in a couple hours and now it's time to make the real deal ! I will get a good one built and see if Steve would be so kind to let me post my own thread in the unique products and services area :thumbup:

[rearwheelin]

I didn't expect to get the final mock up done allready ! But I did , I think lol131687

Looks heavy duty! Still doing the rear support?

There is no possible way I can do a nice rear support so I'm going to have to recommend this. For the motor you sent me I would just run 6 motor bolts and call it good :)

Ugh. I think you can get one in there, I know you can. It would probably be more trouble than it is worth though. Thanks for trying at it!
I will let you you know where to send that motor back when your done playing with it... haha

Just let me know and I will get it to you ASAP ! The front support OSE has would be the way to go in my book :thumbup1:

[rearwheelin]

Just a update on the drop in unit. It's comming along but could be a couple weeks before one is ready . They are a lot of work ! They will have plenty of CF too !

[rearwheelin]

A real labor of love :tongue_smilie:
