    Doesnt that mean the right sponson is the one you want planted while the left sponson slides?

          That's what I said, FULL SCALE = FULL SIZE. I know there is an r/c scale organization out in Washington State I think that races to the left also.

                The e-rcu.com is the correct link.

                Here's some shots from the scalehydro.com site of their boats turning left!

                  Now we are getting somewhere. The decals from Mike Mcknight should be here in a day or two, so the paintwork can begine. Enjoy, MIke

                      Looks really nice, but then you do REALLY nice work always... Will be interested to see how it handles... especially with the break that far forward in the tunnel...

                        The break in the tunnel is where Roger put it in the plans. It has been run like that on many builds, and on the full size hull!
