Norbert's FE Tunnel

[norbique]

Not actually a build thread, I just want to show off my newest baby.
I started the build thread on RCU forums.
Scratch built, wood over foam construction, GF cowling, OS leg, Feigao 12L on 4S. X438 prop. Modified (waterproofed, watercooled) 150A cheapo ESC. Maybe it's an overkill for the L can but this is what I have.
Still not 100% finished, but it's getting wet in a week if weather allows.

Looks great man, can't wait to see it run!

Thanks Ace, I can't wait to put it on water.
I'll take my camera for sure and ask someone to film it.

RTR weight is 2.7 kilos (almost 6 pounds), which might seem a little heavy for a 29 tunnel. But I crammed a 5.8Ah 4S lipo inside :) I want to have long run-times.

OK folks, first test run yesterday. Sorry no video as of yet. The boat run very smoothly. I still have to adjust COG and prop shaft angle. I'll do a test run in the near future, having someone to film it as well.
