      It's not a case of how do I squeeze in batteries.. more like where would they be most accessible .. ?
      Just cut and installed 3 x 1500mm lengths of pool noodles as flotation..all inside the nose ! ( one hell of a plastic booga ! )

          Could someone send me a picture of a lake or some water. I have worked every day for 2 weeks and have not had a boat on the water all that time. It is driving me crazy

              Ages back a group of us went to water by one the city's popular spots.. eventually a squad car arrived and watch for 30+ mins until we started to pack up .. then they approached and complemented us while apologizing that we should leave !

                Hey paddy these are the two short videos i have seen of my Cheetah cat.
                this one is a twin (think first or 2nd test run in small pond) http://youtu.be/GLQ2iAtrqCo

                This one is a single in really rough water. first red cat that blows off i believe is a sprint cat,not sure what the other hull is that hits the SC. http://youtu.be/2CirDjTUH84
                Pretty rough water big winds

                  Thanks for posting the vids ozzie. Looks like you are on a winner here. Handles the rough stuff better than the other 2 for sure and a nice turn of speed.

                    Good story Doc. These things sure are infectious. I bet those cops went away talking FE boats and never wrote a ticket the rest of the day. Probably headed to the LHS.

                            ahh you give me some laughs ozzie. I am surprised that boat still goes. It had so many blow overs and as you see it is quite a good flyer. Just not good at landings as you say.
