    Cheetah hull origins

    There's been some seriously unfounded accusations... So figured I'd clear some things up for the gossip queens.

    It's an 860mm MTI style hull, scaled down from the TFL Hobby 41" "Spider" gas hull. It's original mold is a completely CAD designed cast mold from a CAD drawing. CAD Drawing.

    I have nothing to hide and let's get this straight, I've not infringed on any copyrights. The new 34" cat is made from a computer drafted design. It's not surprising that the end result is similar to another boat in the same class though.

    I'm disappointed that I was not contacted and instead was flamed on an open forum with baseless accusations from ones imagination.


    Carry on.

      It's rather ridiculous that he HAD to clear it up.

        I couldn't believe half of the things that were said in that thread lol. I was going to pipe in but felt there were too many roosters in the hen house.
        Hopefully EVERYONE will read this, thanks for all you do Ben and Steven!

          That thread was mild compared to some of the "splash" threads I've seen on Jim's (the gas forum).

                I've been called on things several times in the open and needed to clear them up. Its part of running a business that not of us likes.

                This thread isnt going to turn into another issue. It lives until the morning and gets locked up then.

                  The only reason the other thread went bad was one guy. I think an apology in open forum would be appropriate, since it's so easy to flame someone for NO reason.

                      I am entitled to my opinion, AND my opinion remains the same. IF my opinion changes, I will stand corrected, till then, get over the lynch mob mentality

                        Your "opinion" lol.
                        you are (were) stating your opinion as fact. That changes things. This thread proves it. If you don't think so, now you're calling him a liar? Why wouldn't people try to back someone like Ben who has been nothing but good for this hobby, against false and baseless accusations?
