    Make sure to at least, fill the rudder-mount area of the hull solid. Them 6-bolts will tear out of their poor laminate construction in that area. On mine, once the hull/deck is together again, metal tubes will go through for the bolts to crush against. Note the solidness of the rudder mount area in this pic.

    On a together hull/deck, one could pour a epoxy-resin / chopped-strand / graphite-powder sauce into it.

      What?! The transom rudder mount is hollow?! I was under the assumption those 6 bolts are in a solid mount or heavily reinforced carbon plates on the inside.. Yeah that’s a design flaw, at 100mph+ that will shear off in a flip. . Like you mentioned, in my rigger sponsons I use aluminum tube on the inside so the turn fin doesn’t crush the sponson. If I can get my hand in there, I can snug in some tube and pour epoxy in to solid mount all of that while still having the ability to remove the rudder mount.

          The smaller things

          All bond-in parts will have a foot, for greater surface area.

                  Basically the same build, mine are Leopard 4092 2080kv with XLX2’s. I had Dasboata make me some custom props. Chris sent over some custom 1.8x3.25 2 blade props.

                  Did you see OSE is going to sell a CF mounting plate for the XLX2, might save you some time.

                    Nice.

                    Does this Dasboata Chris have a website?

                    I'll look on OSE store now. I love the convenience of this forum and store.

                      Dasboata is in these forums, been around for years. Many many people use his props, do a quick search. His name is Chris Hoffman. There isn’t much on his site http://www.dasboata.com/?i=1

                      I just email him my combo and tell him I want to go fast lol. His props get them Zondas into the 115mph+.

                          Pretty'd up.

                          Finished up the mounting for the drives & trim-adjusters.

                          I was suppost to get pics of the stages, but forgot. So I made a vid showing what I do, to make the bolts thread into.

                          Bolts and items are waxed/pva'd, put in place, wrapped with uni-fiber around the threads and bits, filled with mud (resin, chopped-strand, graphite-pow, cabosil), to smooth out the shape, then capped with a layer of carbon.

                          Here's the hull with some resin, applied with a sponge for just a slight wetted look:

                          57.JPG 58.JPG

                          And the vid:

                            Spun'up some 6mm plate discs, stuck'em to some 2mm plate. Mounts for batteries and esc's done. ESC's will be stick in place with a blob of Permatex black silicone. Batteries will get foam pad under them for no slippage, and lashed down with the MHZ straps.

                            M4 holes in the plate go through all, for a painting jig to be bolted into the hull. Wanna save big time on paint jobs, help the painter out with the ability to easily move and secure the item being painted.

                            With All the composite construction of this boat, I decided to make a new pipe form myself too.

                                What’s the difference between their c-afk and cfk hulls?
