Be careful of the screw heads rubbing against the lipo's. I used button head allen screws to minimize this in the El Lobo and now my PI hull.
But it does look very neat and clean!

Thanks Jason! I definately want a clean build. I don't really like seeing wires and such scattered throughout the hull if I can get away with it....
Now having a boat with 4 2S packs is a different story....right Mike?

Very nice....You probably could sell your rail set-up to others who aren't able to make that...or those who prefer just to buy that then make themselfs."Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction."

from my two favorite FE Directors from D-12 and D-13...Chilli Mike and Doug Smock!! Thanks so much guys!! 
This is just what the Rico will need! Very nice work on the prop Doug!
You guys are the best!

Go get em!!!!
BTW Fixing you up with a prop was Mikes idea but don't feel like you have to cut him any slack on the race course.
Good luck Kent!
