Looks great the inlay came out really nice !!! that's not easy to do nice and dry like that !

I have Apophis to thank for that. I've never done one, so I took it to Shawn for a lesson from a pro I just picked up a DF sniper I'll be attempting my first inlay on that when I get around to building it.

Got a little more work done today. i ordered an esc mount from MBP but needed a CF plate to be able to mount it, I don't have any laying around that's big enough so I decided to use a old CF battery tray. Looks like it will work well I also got the rudder mounted and water inlet installed.

That's one intimidating looking mono

I just hope it performs, it's a narrow hull with lots of power. Hoping to be able to keep her straight

Had some unexpected time today to mess around with the mono. I got the steering linkage installed, I'm using a carbon fiber rod so I need to get the servo arm aligned perfectly. Also got the water outlet and antenna mount installed.. I got the hatch bolts installed tonight as well
Next weekend I'll be working on getting the servo mounted just gotta figure out how lol

Using a carbon fiber steering rod obviously cannot be bent, and I didn't want to put a shelf in and cover up easy access to the transom hardware. I found a servo arm from an airplane website that is perfect length so I can still use the mount I have, and get perfect alignment with the linkage I'll be getting the servo mounted permanently tonight.

Excellent servo choice. My Radiopost servo is fantastic. Great looking build!

Thanks for the compliment, these radiopost servos are awesome. I like how quiet they are, can't even tell they're on

Nice job again. That stuffing tube mount is sick too the maiden is going to be a real experience.

Can't wait for the ice to melt the maiden should be interesting, I'm worried there will be to much torque roll with how narrow this hull is. May have to shim the drive a little

[gixx1k2]

Just got the hull tore down and dropped off at the paint shop, should have her back in a week or 2.

Went to my buddy's to pick up the boat today now just need to reassemble her

Hi, I read at the start of the post that you would be getting your hardware done in black. I to go with that colour and it comes up great. The only thing I wanted to let you now was that with the trim tabs you have from speed master I could not get the stainless hinge pin out?.
I tried heating it, drilling it and hammering it. Not sure how they assemble them but it seems they must have a thread machined on one end and then the screw head must wind off during manufacturing.
Has anyone else tried to pull them appart successfully?.

Thanks Shane.

I think it would look awesome black but Ive decided to leave it alone. Next time I will order the hardware which is already anodized
