    first cobra 2 FE build

    well i finally got all the parts to build my own FE boat. most people that know me, know im a nitro guy but here goes
    cobra 2 with the larger radio box already cut for FE
    OS lower
    hyperformance adapter
    ul-1 motor
    ul-1 speedcontroller
    hitec hs645mg servo
    4S 5000 turnigy nana tech battery (ordered and waiting on delivery)
    all went well on the build was real easy drilled 3 holes for large brass tubing (motor wires)
    cables for stering
    and large tubing for water cooling.
    i paid extra attention to how it went together, because i wanted to be able to remove the whole radio box if nessasary. any comments or opinions are welcome. also what prop to start with, i dont want to fry the speedcontroller.

    Looks good Dan. You might want to start with an 42x55. I have been using M445 on my PS295 with the UL1 motor and UL1 esc with the OS lower.

              Use the 42x55 prop to start with. Never had any problems with it.
