    Pinstripes

    GOOD JOB MAN I ALSO ADDED PINSTRIPES ON MY DF29.5" I ADDED A STRIPE ALL THE WAY AROUNG THE HULL AT THE SEAM WHERE THE DECK IS JOINED. STILL UNDECIDED ON A POWERPLANT THO. I AM LEANING TOWARDS AN 8XL OR 9XL UNTIL I CAN GO BLACK. SORRY THE PIC IS SO LARGE I'M HAVING TROUBLE ON PHOTOBUCKET EDITING MY IMAGES SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY ACTIVE-X.

      Well here is the update.
      I am getting the 7xl back from obrien
      my hydra 240 and evo25 should be in Wed.
      I just ordered my speedmaster hardware and 5.5mm bullet connectors from OSE
      (he was low on 6mm, so I will upgrade later)

      I got a bruline antenna from the local shop
      the through hull power switch came out of my TC31
      I have a water cooler from another boat
      tabs are here
      motor mount is here
      turn fins are coming
      motor is around the corner

      Am I missing anything here
      The Manx has been sitting dormant, but I think I finally have my motivation back. I hope to see it float soon.

              one other possible problem I forgot to mention.
              the stringers are too short for both motor mount screws.
              I have a couple ideas to remedy this, but would like to know what you guys think.

              1. backing plates with spacer in between for the top bolt.
              2. add to the stringer and glass it in.

              any other thoughts?

                Im not sure what to suggest.


                but i would say which ever one is going to be the lightest, but strong enough to handle what your wanting to do.

                  well after speaking with Joe Solinger I was worried about frying my new lipos from amp draw, so I just ordered a second one so I can run 4s2p for a total of 250amps

                  4s1p 5000mah 25c = 5amp x 25c = 125 amps x (2p, second battery) = 250 amps

                  I would hate to wreck something that cost so much money.
                  All my stuff should be here just in time for next club meet.

                    crap I forgot the thrust bearing.
                    anybody in our club have an extra that will fit a 5mm shaft .150 flex that I can buy on the 20th

                        I personally don't know what all the worry is about 1p setups are fine. That is all our national rules will allow and i haven't heard of anyone blowing a set of lipos yet..
                        We just had a major electric race meeting and the 3 top P mono's were 33 DF's
                        1st place ran a 1521 not sure on the wind
                        2nd ran a 1515 1Y
                        and 3rd (me ) ran a 1515 2D

                          thanks for the input Heath, I am just being over cautious I'm sure.

                            John,

                            So you are going to run the 7xl on 4s2p?

                            I'm so confused..............

                            Just want to make sure the only thing you are going to cook at the next meet are the dogs.
