That thing sounds cool! Can't wait to see her in action. Be careful that balsa is not gonna handle smacking anything.

THe motor no.. IT is mounted on a big aluminium plate that is cooled by the water passing the hull.The esc will be conected to the ruder pick up.Tn the bath tub test it didn`t get eaven warm.


Thanx for the pisitive respounse.And sorry for my bad english.

There is nothing wrong with your English. It is better than some of what I read here from folk who use it daily.

Your boat looks very nice and I commend you on building it from balsa.
I have a few balsa hulls and have grown to know the strengths and limitations of it. Done well with a bit of hardwood or thin ply it is a very nice material to build with.

Looking forward to sseing how yours goes.
3S on a 3500kv outrunner has to be good.
