    Well hello Jason and let me say you are off to a great start. Just one thing... Give her my address when you are finished. I don't care how fugly, just send the poor little bugga my way.

      Yea does not sound rite "xtreme stock" but it has the ability to run both blinky mod (stock) dynamic timing mod and mod threw software changes.

      Paddy the track will be clay as most proper off-road tracks should are. A lot of work has gone into the place,unfortunatly i am the only welder lol.
      There is still a lot to do as we want it to be the best indoor off-road track in OZ

          It is even rougher if you wear a kilt and no underpants. Those park bench splinters must be painful.

                Took the new/old 135 cat out today for her maiden.
                She passed the flotation test with flying colors.
                I failed the driving test however.

                    Well yes you did. First thing to learn here is they go faster with the prop in the water. Flip the boat over and you will see a big improvement in the speed. Believe it or not, they corner better with the rudder in the water also. I guess you thought the rudder would act as a sail and help with speed and handling but quite the contrary.

                      Most every forum I visit, people tell me repeatedly that boats in the good ole' USA go faster than down here.
                      Hmmm
                      I thought it may be due orientation to the magnetic North pole... hull bottom side up makes it same as in USA.
                      It certainly rode higher from the water than other rotation
                      Perhaps is I had bigger props ?... 12x10 aero would be the go !
                      Will go out again today and try the other weay , just for *!***!***!***!**zbgiggles.

                        I think you are on to a winner with the aero prop. A bigger rudder might catch more wind too and that will increase speed and help it turn.
                        I remember putting an X455 on my glider and it just would not fly.

                          I *!***!***!***!** you not i was working in a hobby shop a few years ago and a guy comes in with a mono he brought rtr.
                          It would not turn so we thought servo issue. When he brought the boat in the rudder was pointing straight up.
                          the only thing he had to do to get it going out of the box was add batteries and bolt the rudder on. He thought it was a air rudder for some reason.

                          You guys see it looks like ben lost his own buisness (fightercat).

                            Lost it? I am sure it will turn up somewhere.

                                Not good. Is there a thread about it?
