      Awesome.. what a small world. I'm sure when everything arrives I'll have a few questions for you regarding the installation.

        Hi John, I ordered a set of sharpened and balanced x447 octras and a set of x457 octras to cut down.

        From what I've read I need to cut them down to a 50mm. Do you have any experience with this?

        Thanks

                  If you are to get some reduced 457’s done detounge them and remove some blade area. Make sure to tell Chris this oryou will draw unecesary amps

                    Hi all

                    My hull finally arrived today from Switzerland :-)

                    I'll start the build in a week or two when I have a little time off.

                      Just got my C5009 hull and hardware in as well. I won't be starting my build for a while, so I'll be watching your progress for ideas.

                          So are we all going to be comparing notes on running come spring? Haha

                            How are the new HPR hulls (the new guys who took over HPR) are they of the similar or same caliber of that of Hans?

                              Mine will be rigged within an inch of its capabilities and my notes may have more to do with aerobatic properties than hydrodynamics!

                              My hull is an older, HPR layup. I have not personally seen one of the new ones up close.

                                I'm not sure how the new ones compare. I'll thake some closeup pics this evening.
