BTW
If you want to run fast and loose. . . if you have POWER then your pack needs to be about half way under the front of the canopy
WAY ahead of where you have it. with speed running a HUGE wheel it will just kite
I ran a 637 prop and didn't need to use tabs until i went lipo. My 4200 nimh pack when used was half way past the fron of the canopy. . .

Thanks man. That's good news cause I was worried about the weight being to far forward . I bought 2s-1p 5k packs for this boat. running a single like I plan is going to be light. I guess I may need a longer tray.

i've had this paint gun for a while now. it's awesome. bought it a while back for $10.00. i saw it again today on sale at Harbor Freight for $9.99. it is a professional mini detail spray gun model #92126.
just thought i'd share a piece of info on a great tool addition if you already have an air compressor. the paint cup holds 4 ounces of oil base or water base paint.

you can go to the site and enter the 92126 then download the manual. it offers some pretty good painting tips.

Rob I don't have a compressor but I do have a 150lb holding tank. Do you think that would store enough for a paint job?

Hey sorry to butt in here. I see they have the FINSHLINE gun by DeVilbiss which is an awesome gun. I have one that I currently use for od jobs. it is HVLP and even that gun needs a steady 45psi. and remember the MOST important thing when using a gun is VOLUME not pressure. A non hvlp gun should have a steady 60-70psi in my opinion. With that being said, SJFE I wouldnt try using a storage tank. You wouldnt have enough to spray but for about 5 seconds. One more thing though. a lesser expensive gun does NoT mean its not a good quality gun. Make sure your products are mixed correctly and you use the right size needle and you should see good results.

Remember to clean clean clean. Anything left behind will harden after you have put it away.

100% CLEAN!!!! A good air source with 8+ Gal tank and the right needles!! You should see some good results!

Note make sure aircompressor supplies more air than the tool takes, or the tank preasure will drop to lower than desired levels

all these tips everyone is chimming in will help everyone. their airbrushes are great also.

i see harbor freight has the 8 gal 3 HP air compressor #40400/95386 on sale for $89. that's what i use.

I can run my airbrush all day long with my lil comp (60$) and a 20lb tank with reg and filter. but it wont handle the detail guns, just cant supply enough.
