    compartment

    I saw that also. This winter I want to build a 19" - 20" mystic for single drive. The sponsons will all be solid, so everything has to fit in the middle. If I put those compartments in the sponsons, it would give a place for some batteries. That is what I am thinking they are for. Saddle tanks for electricity!

    what surprises me is the sort of compartment in the middle??? if it's a mono it would be the battery location but I doubt it is, seems too narrow for a mono unless it is a cigarette style???

            It's a bugger when alzimers starts to attack one of our talented Kiwi designers.
            Simon obviously is building another free lance balsa cat but has forgotten to make the centre section.
            Poor guy, it's rather sad.

              Do not worry Graham, he will consume a home brew and have a fag and all will make sense. This lad needs some serious help. Mind you he is a Kiwi!

                  I am guessing this has something to do with it.

                    I do the same myself, if you don't bother drawing full size plans its by far the easiest way to keep each side symmetrical.
