Delta Force mini Build questions

[Mikey P.]

I looked into using mini cat usa hardware but it requires a 3mm prop. Are there any other options for running hardware for this boat that will use a standard size prop?

[Steven Vaccaro]

You can also use a 1/8" prop, there will be a tad of space. A small piece of electrical tape wrapped around the shaft will work nice to take up that space. I have a boat with a 3mm shaft and dont use any spacer. 3mm is about .118" or so, its very close to 1/8" octura props.

[Dr. Jet]

I am planning on building one of these. I will use Joe Solonger's micro rudder and turn fin with a Fuller's 1/8" strut, Octura 1/8" x 1/16" propshaft and a 1/16" wire drive. Power will be an 1107/1.5Y/H motor on 2S.

Where do I get that hardware. I really don't want any slop.
I just found this Atomos hull http://www.team-lindenau.de/

Might do it instead. Will still need similar hardware though

BTW I'm going to use 6s with supervee 27 esc and motor

In the 17" DF Micro Hydro? I am not certain it will all fit in there.

[Mikey P.]

dunno, that's the plan though.

We must be thinking of different boats. All that will sink a mini delta hydro.

Not only will it not fit 6s on the esc will let the magic smoke out. Mikey you should reconsider your power options on this hull. 2s would be more along the right size 3s would be a handful of nerves to say the least. Good luck

I did 6s on the SV system by accident once. blew the ESC as well as the motor

Went like a bat-outta-hell for about 15 feet though!

Holy Krap guys!!!
Dunno, I'm new to boats. I had a "friend" who was gonna buy one with me. He's been into boats for a while. I've decided he's not much of a....well, he's an A.H. So I'm over building one. Just ordered a Mini cat racing 'Mini Hydro' model.

Thanks for the replys!
