      Try to contact Rigo at RC Boat works. He has a 31"-32" FG cracker. It's not listed on his website, but he does have them. I think they are under $200, but I am unsure about the shipping charges...

        Yep, he's got 'em but no hatch available. Obviously made for nitro?

          Yes they are designed for nitro. But a lot of FE's are nitro conversions.

            I'm aware of that but hoping for something specifically made for the new 1/6th FE class. Nitro conversion may not meet the stringent specs that have been set forth.

                After reading through 8 long pages of posts I have yet to see plans posted, I'd like to build this, but without plans its a no-go for me. I don't have the plans in any scale. I see there is a kit, but I'd like to do this from scratch.
                I'm new to RC scratch building, this would be my second build, the first being a fairly simple Springer Tug. Fun to build but a bit slow.

                Perhaps someone has some line drawings for the CB templates in 1/6 scale? This looks fairly straight forward, I like the idea of sheeting the hull in thin ply as opposed to planking.

                  Good Day sir

                  I am about to build a cracker and hope I can call on you for advive
                  This is my first venture into fast electric so these may seem simple questions
                  Is 1/6 cracker still a pobular class?
                  First what rudder did you use (part number) if possible?
                  Second what strut did you use (part number) if possible?
                  Thank you and await your reply

                    There is 1/10 scale plans that you can take to be blown up to the size you need. Not sure whare they are. But I know they are available.
