First build... Cheap boat, lots of power

[masonis1]

About the battery trays, why cant i just put the batterys down on the floor of the boat? Would that hurt something?

[masonis1]

It seems with that start point, the cog would be way forward.

What prop is on the back there?

Looks like it is pretty good shape just needs a little TLC and whatnot.

[masonis1]

I have forgot. I dont know exactly. Anyone else know? I think its a proboat.

Ya a lot of tlc, the hatch has some damage and its just dirty, seems like its been sitting for a while. A long time. I need to get my vaccum and vaccum out the inside from all the stirafoam and stuff. Then wipe the hull down again. I might paint this... Well i might save up for a good paint job for this beast.

I would epoxy those trays back in.They work great for strapping the batteries in with velcro straps.This is important if you wipe it out.A battery can come clean through a hull at speed.

And sric can you post some pictures of your boat on here for me to see what mine will hopefully someday be!!

[masonis1]

Oh wow, well in that case, i might put those carbon fiber battery trays i got from mark and find where i will put the batterys at. Did they look fine in the pictures? And then put them in.

It is definately not a Proboat.I'm going to guess a Grimm.Pull off the nut and it should say right where the nut touches the prop.

[masonis1]

Ok. I will do that tomorrow. Hah. Wb those pictures!!?

[masonis1]

So how did you get the cf in the hull like that?

[masonis1]

Ok so why is my cog so far forward with everything so far back? Im confused? I wonder if he packed more stuff up front like he did with the lipos.
