First post , not sure where to turn at this point. Here's my story ......
I've been into Nitro RC for 20 years mostly trucks & buggies. The past couple I started with the brushless LiPO craze and learned my way around enough to keep things from going up in smoke (sometimes)
Well I made a call to Fine Design rc Marine and told Chris I wanted to get into the water now with a Brushless Hydro but didn't know where to start. He put a package together for me and sent it off. He told me if I had any problem setting it up to drop a line or go to his site and there are alot of good "set up" pic's there.
Needless to say the pic's on the site are useless and the bag of "hardware" looks like just another pile of stuff like the end countertop draw in any kitchen has. The hydro hull is poor (IMO) , I was told it was a "nice - no paint needed hull" the seams jump & scream look at me and the hatch won't even sit in the hull right. The day it was shipped I called to see if the wing was included or extra and Chris's wife or GF answered and would not even let me talk to him. He was just to busy. He told her to tell me "don't bother it will get ripped off anyway". I told her I didn't care & that I wanted one , to me that was what sold me on the boat to begin with. He told her to tell me I can find them on the internet and he didn't have any.
Ok now the boat came in , I was shorted the decal's I wanted along with a prop. I told him I needed everything but batt's & Radio gear. I see on his site the prop is not included but I figured since he did the package he should have known the prop is needed to move the thing and package means everything. Going on a week now trying to get him to call me back or answer an e-mail with no luck after countless tries on my end. I'm getting ready to just throw the whole box in the trash and call it a lesson learned at this point. So I figured I'de surf the net and look for help thus this post here .....LOL.
This is what I have ........
The hull ia a H&M #10791 (200$) dont even know the scale
XL9 @ 1750 kv motor -- going to run on 4s
Castle Hydra 120 ESC
Hardware set for a hydro
Anyone have any thought's better than mine ....
