Have you got a price for the sport 12?? That would be fun on 2S for N2 sport hydro.

Sorry, got it from the website, Cool.

Just did a few changes to the GP series hydroplanes, and it is now called the V2 hull. Below is the info added to the website. Specs for all 3 sizes are on the website as well.


GP310v2
You may be asking, what is the V2 (change made 7/10/13)? Well, the quarter round location in the center section has been moved forward 2" giving the builder even more room up front and additional height in the battery location, will help the nitro boaters have more radio box depth and will help keep the boat even more stable at speed and reduce blowoff possiblities. Also the sponson teardrop has been narrowed 1/2" to help reduce sponson "airplane" effect on nitro boats as they typically weigh less, lightening holes are added to the engine well in the battery area for more options of wire or fuel line routing and the precut servo mount location has been moved to the right side of the hull, behind the engine area for easier access and right side rudder mounting. Pictures of these changes will be up soon as the original version is what is shown below.
I will post pictures soon as I will be building one very soon for a customer.

GP335v2
You may be asking, what is the V2 (change made 7/11/13)? Well, the quarter round location in the center section has been moved forward 2 1/8" giving the builder even more room up front and additional height in the battery location, will help the nitro boaters have more radio box depth and will help keep the boat even more stable at speed and reduce blowoff possiblities. Also the sponson teardrop has been narrowed 9/16" to help reduce sponson "airplane" effect on nitro boats as they typically weigh less, lightening holes are added to the engine well in the battery area for more options of wire or fuel line routing, and the precut servo mount location has been moved to the right side of the hull, behind the engine area for easier access and right side rudder mounting. Pictures of these changes will be up soon as the original version is what is shown below.
Thanks, Mike

GP400v2
You may be asking, what is the V2 (change made 7/11/13)? Well, the quarter round location in the center section has been moved forward 2 5/8" giving the builder even more room up front and additional height in the battery location, will help the nitro boaters have more radio box depth and will help keep the boat even more stable at speed and reduce blowoff possiblities. Also the sponson teardrop has been narrowed 5/8" to help reduce sponson "airplane" effect on nitro boats as they typically weigh less, lightening holes are added to the engine well in the battery area for more options of wire or fuel line routing, and the precut servo mount location has been moved to the right side of the hull, behind the engine area for easier access and right side rudder mounting.

Another Update. Yesterday I added that the V2 version of the GP310 was complete, and today I am happy to say the V2 version of the GP335 and GP400 are both done as well! The SX400 does not require these changes as they were mostly incorporated already. See above post for more info. The GP265v2 will be finished soon. Mike

I got in a GP310V2 and GP400V2 kit for some customers builds. I will be doing some build threads on these two builds soon. Mike

Version 2 changes have now been done to the GP265 kit, so now all the GP series kits have the updates! Mike

Hey,

I am working on getting someone to do builds that has the time. We are interviewing him right now, to see how he does. If it all checks out, I will send you his way. I just don't have the time to build anymore. I have a few people on a list, but the list has gotten so old they have probably moved on from me building anything for them. The last year has been busy for sure. Shoot me a PM if you would like to be a possible list for the other guy to build a hull for you. Thanks ,Mike

Q: Right sponson ride pad overhang, how far up the tip of the sponson does the blunt edge go? I blended it flush from the tip to about 2" back. Should I blend it further back, have I gone too far?
Thanks Mike.

.....I see now in post 38, dough!!! No need to blend anymore!!
