For years now you two have laughed and my boat driving skills so I have decided to learn how to go around a corner on land and then on water. To tell you the truth I am getting tired of walking from one end of the lake to the other just to turn my boat around and send it back to where it came from

      ha ha ha
      Is it really appropriate for an old perv like you to drive something so juvenile ?
      It's just soooooo tiny &cute !

      ps.. if there was a track within 25 Id buy one !

      It is an angle grinder box almost full of spare parts. You know how people are when they want money bad... they throw all the buggered parts in a box to make the deal look good and conveniently forget to tell you they are useless

        Thank You ozzie

        Over the years I have been boating I have been given quite a few boats, parts and batteries from andym, Doc, Chuck and ozzie. Here is a little something ozzie posted to me recently...









        As you can see from the pics it is a new DF 33 clone. Thanks so much ozzie. I hope to be posting some videos of it once it is completed.
        Thanks to all you guys for your generosity

          Some of you may remember some of the pictures I posted on S&K when my sister nearly lost her house in a bush fire some time ago. Though I would post a couple of pics to show you how the trees have recovered...

                  It cleaned up to look very nice ozzie. I don't know what tape they used on it but it sure left some residue. My Turnigy wanking towel is a real mess after the cleanup.
                  I just pulled the 1515 1Y out of my DF 29 and should be in the post to you next week. One of the motors needs new bearings so I hope that's not a problem.

                    That stand has some height in it. Looks great.
                    Good luck with the sponsored drive. Nice truck.
                    Give you something to laugh at. I went flying this morning. I think my plane is in the river. I got a second hand receiver from ebay and I think I found out why the guy sold it. It was flying great and all of a sudden the plane went its own way across the rice grass and out over the river.
                    Douggie have you seen my plane?

                              Dinky little plane? The big boys at the flying field call them a Foamie because... you guessed it, they are made of foam and that is why your SAM missile made it disappear.

                                I tested my DF 29 clone this morning for the first time with a Neu 1515 0.5Y motor on a Turnigy 3s lipo and an andym x640 prop. The speed was 104 kph or 64.62 mph. I am more than happy with this speed as I consider the prop to be on the conservative side and I know I can run this on 4s if I have to. Yes I know 4s is going to places where few men fear to tread but I have done it before and got away with it. My goal is to better my personal mono record of 116 kph or 72.07 mph done by my old DF 33 clone. Things are looking good so far as the boat is riding better than any of my other DF hulls have and both props and batteries will give more speed.

                                Setup...

                                1515 0.5Y, Hydra 240lv, 3s, X640 = 104 kph or 64.62 mph
