Well guys below some pics of todays build progress. Surts, motors, shafts, water in-out and other parts already in place. Still wait for the new Spektrum low profile servo to be fitted and glue the servo and Esc mounts. Hopefully to finish by mid of next week and hopefully to start testing various setups.

Anybody knows where the CG is of the Mystic?

Well done Nick!! You don't waste anytime. Make sure you install some kind of flex safety, can just be a small 3/16 collet very high risk of loosing shaft on those boats. I lost it the first day LOL

Hi Guys

Looks very nice Nick! how about under the hood with all the tubing?? did you get the low profile servo yet?

[cyprus31]

Hi there Kent
Servo is out of stock currently from the local importer. I will order it from internet. I am fed up with the locals here. Regards the tubing inside I found locally from an electric shop special fire-profe coating which I fitted everywhere on all water tubes. Will upload pic later.

NICE!! look forward to seeing that
