        I was actually looking at the speedmaster stingers also.
        I may use them as they are quite a bit cheaper than my other alternative which are the MTC Powertrimm V's which are @ $127 each.

        The speedmaster also look a lot more realistic to me. I'd love a set of real looking arnesons... Maybe we can get LoneWolf to hook us up with some scale arnesons.

          How were your hulls for straightness ?
          warped at all ?
          Any other quality issues ?

          I was thinking about building one of these, I need a smaller, more portable cat !

            My hull is straight and unwarped... The only thing I can say is, its thin and will need a little CF for support.. Just my opinion...

              I think that we are on the same page! But, it might be more $$ for Lonewolf to make something from scratch vs. the speedmaster stingers...

                Skidoo used them on his apache. I asked him to get me some measurements.

                  I think $80 for 2/speedmaster stingers is the ticket! The MTC's come in a PKG deal for $204... For that kind of bread, I will pass...

                  What rudder are you going with?

                    Keep in mind the speedmaster struts are ajusted from the top. Do you have room under the over hang for that? You maybe better off with custom or supervee struts. The SV struts will need mods also. Speedmaster stingers are always my first choice. It's nice to have the custom option as well. I will vouch for his work 100%. The product can always be sent back for more mods or ajustments.

                      Ahh what the heck, I've been looking at this thing for days !
                      I bought the bud select knock off.

                      Now to try to be sane with the power setup for once !

                      There are quite a few struts that look like they'll work, but how about a rudder that isn't the typical (ugly) L bracket style mounting ?
                      One that looks a little more scale with a "T" type mounting bracket ?

                        The toysport stand off rudder looks like a nice option here.

                          Rocket City Racing sells a T mount for speed master rudders.

                                Hopf has some nice stuff for very reasonable prices. I believe they make the toysport hardware ?
