    War Eagle 34

    I have been racing this boat for quite some time. It has held several titles and records. Nitro and electric. Daymon wanted one and ordered this one a few months ago. this is the start of the build. I do not know if I will be painting this one.



    This is what mine looked like done.

      Yes they do, Thanks They can be made in 36 inch and 34 inch Mine was a 36 and I like the handling so much and 4S that I have left it 34 for a long time.

          Not quite, I guess I was not clear. I liked the handling of the 34 so much it has been that for the last two years. Beside that I like 4S Sports best.

                Very nice! Are the canards actively adjustable on yours (while running), or just static adjustments?
                Light travels faster than sound, so people may appear to be bright until you hear them speak.

                  We set the canards and never move them. I like to keep it simple. Adjust on the fly is just a little too much while racing.

                    Cool.... probably a massive over complication, but it would be neat to add a gyro on a third channel to auto adjust them depending on how the hull is running. Not sure they have enough authority to bring the nose down by the time a gyro catches it about to blow over though.

                      Others have tried and it does not react fast enough. It has been tried.

                        Good to know, I had my doubts about how effective the canards would be once the nose lifts (they're pretty blocked by that point).

                          Well this boat went out the door and I did not get a finished picture so I will have to get one when Daymon finishes his part of the build. I will also be adding more War Eagle builds over time to this thread.

                            Do you sell these hulls with all hardware installed?

                              Yes, this is one I built to that point.
