    identify this u1 model

    ok, i own a 1/8 llumar which i plan to convert to a FE. now, im a sucker for appearance. and although the PB u1 1/8's look nice, i really dont dig the rear wings. i plan to take off the top wing and mount the virtical stablizers like the one on the following link.....

    can some tell me if this is the same model as the PB u1's? (of course except the wings) i enjoy the agressive looks of the slanted wings.

    as far as performance, cmon, i know its not going to suffer that bad. (if at all)

    also, i plan to cut out the black winshield and put a clear one with the seaming bolts and rear view mirrors. some may not like the idea, as it could leak water into the hull. but thats no problem because i plan to have it sealed. i just think this is way too sexy of a model to leave it looking like the following image lol

    no thats not me. i dont know who the hell that is i hope i dint offend anyone.

        RC Boat Company and Phil Thomas both make Winshields and Driver/cockpit details for the T5.

        Just an FYI.

            yup there is a top wing not shown in the picture. When they are on the trailer the wings are not installed
