    Back to the subject at hand. Jerry and Brian will be pleased to know I FINALLY started my build. Will get some pics up later today. I got a motor mount done, mounted the rudder, and started fabricating one of the stingers. Yes, Im sticking w/ the original and requested plan to go twin. Ive got to get a few things this week from the LHS to proceed forward w/ the drive line etc. My goal is to have motors mounted and connected to prop shafts by next weekend.

    Jerry, do you want me to post the build on here as you originally mentioned or start a new thread?

        hmmmmm Maybe cut them along the edge, then stick the other part back on so there would be a seem. Thats all I can think of for now. Other than maybe getting a smaller decal. Or you cold try peeling it up a bit and put some backing on it so it wont stick to itself, then fold it where it need to and put a crease in it. then remove the backing and try sticking it back on like that.

        I was thinking of starting a new thread for it anyhow since its a completely different build. I'll try and start it tonight.

          This is awesome! Can't wait to see one run. I have been busy with work and the house, so I need to get off my but and get some work done on my boat projects also. Get my next project rolling....

          I also want to hit 30mph with my scale 40" scarab before winter. I am at 28 now. Not real fast, but pushing it with a $18 36mm outrunner! That build thread got quite since video showing it planing and running. Heck, even one 3s-2200 - 20c $10 battery pushed it up on plane! I will make the effort this week to get back on track on my boating projects. Need to mail out a hatch....

              Hey Brian some of us did not give up on you and the Scarab build, just silently watching and waiting to see how yours goes and gathering ideas for our winter builds. Actually I'm waiting to build my bank account back up, and like you said too many projects and not enough time. Don't give up on it now.
