Project VooDoo mono build

[kfxguy]

What's up fellas. Little lagging on this build. Time to get back to it. Ran a boat last weekend so I'm getting excited again. Worked on voodoo a little this evening. Made the servo mount/electronics platform. I like the way it turned out I can't lie. Simple but neat and effective.





I like how the servo ended up centered.

Looks good Travis, good to see you here pal.

I assume you have been busy like myself.

Thx. Yea I've been preoccupied with things here lately. been selling off a bunch of my stuff and just making more room in my shop. I sold two fourwheelers, one of my boats and three bare hulls. I still have two Rivercat's, two mini Rivercat's, kbb34 and an hpr99. I think I'm keeping all of those except (maybe) one of them. Having all those hulls to build just distracts me so I had to let some go so I could get focused again. I'm getting caught back up finally so I'll be able to breathe soon I hope.

What kind of servo is that I like the green case

Looks like a RadioPost Servo.


Travis....looking good, bud!!

It's a radio post. Very good servo but I don't think they are around anymore. I've been switching out to spektrum here lately, if you want one, I'd trade you this one for a particular spektrum because originally I was painting the boat green but I think I changed my mind. I think I want to go with this color

Btw, this is createx water base and upol clear.....out of a rattle can! It looks like I sprayed with a gun.

[Tamelesstgr]

The createx water base comes in a rattle can as well?

[complacent_one]

Nope...just the clear...the UPOL clear

[Tamelesstgr]

I've been wanting to try that stuff

Hatch color looks great! Keep up the great work on the build, can't wait to see what you can manage with it.

See, isn't it awesome. I loves the Upol.
And speaking of, I really should get back to painting.

You are lucky to have so many good options for painting......unfortunetely I only have the trusty traditional PPG Pu painting here for my nitro boats. Gill

Couple little nice touches I did yesterday. First is I hate how the servo wire just dangles. I milled a slot in the bottom of the servo mount to run the wire through. The open space under the servo also allows me to push the excess wire in there for a even cleaner look.







I wanted to be able to keep tabs on my battery voltage. I was digging through my parts stash and found this little guy and just had to find a spot for it. Not too bad! It even lights up green to match the servo. It's also epoxy potted.

Looking nice! Gill

I like the volt meter. Does it plug in to the receiver or is it spliced in some other way? Do you recall who makes that?
