    Diegoboy's Stretch Renegade rigger

    Since retiring my prototype renegade, I decided to apply Dirtysouth31's advice and stretch a renegade rigger.

    Normally 13.5" long
    Stretched to 16.25" long

    I simply placed the rear sponson boom fwd of the tub.
    This will allow for more battery room since I don't have a rear boom there.

    FYI, that is NOT carbon fiber used for the braces.
    It's merely ply, with carbon decals and a flat black painted edge. (flat was the only black I had on hand)

      Brilliant!!! I always thought you and Dirty made a great team. I haven't seen him on the forums much lately. Is he still into FE and turtle bashing?

        I agree, we were a great team. He was one he|| of a boat driver!
        Things haven't been the same without Dirty. He retired from the hobby, and I havent heard from him.

          It sure would be nice if he could post here in the future. He had alot of knowledge and experience and was always willing to help out others.

                That would look good on that rigger.

                          With some decals that thing would look slick.

                              I'm still deciding on how far apart to spread the sponsons.
