          Nice tight install. Funny how a clean install doesn't tell of all the work it took to make it look so simple.

                Looking good,
                Do you still have that boat and what setup was in it ?
                I have a stock one with two motor drive and was thinking of modding it.

                  That's what mine was.................a "Syma" twin motor. I have a Feigao 3660 1898kv in it on 4s, single drive, Fun little boat.

                    Too bad we can't find someone to make them out of fiberglass

                      If you're talking about the Villain, i agree, fiberglass would be cool, but if you are referring to the Syma "toy" conversion,
                      suprisingly its some fibrous material...............stronger than ABS, look at this pic of it sanded bare before paint.

                        Greased the shaft..........covered the front inside of hull with aluminum sheet, and sharpened and balanced the x442.

                                Well Tony....................as much as i hate to say it, lets just say "boing, boing, boing"................ran like a Kangaroo Have no idea why since i have two others that run great. The CG was a little farther back, maybe only 3/4", and i adjusted the stinger 5 times and the tabs twice. The differences I can think of are the stinger which is about 1/2" longer than my red one, and the prop has more surface area than the other two........... The stuffing tube exits the hull at the same point as the others......... got a bit of work to do as this baffles me.
