Hello everyone, I wasnt exactly sure where to post this thread and I figured it would probably get the most information in this section, so I hope this is an acceptable location.
I need help locating/crafting a hull for a build I am interested in starting. Honestly im not entirely set in that im going to build this for sure, mainly due to the fact that im unsure of whether or not I can find a suitable hull that fits my desires. Im mainly interested in scale hydros and have a couple 1/8 scale builds in progress, but Ive always been a big Outer Limits fan.
I absolutely love the SV29 that they have been producing much of, Pretty much everything about it would be exactly what I would love to reproduce in a scale RC boat. But I cant think of any hulls that really come close to accurately depicting the design of that hull. The hatch and top deck aren't so important as I figure I can probably make some modifications to better suit, but the stepped bottom and contour of the hull are very important to me. Also, one other thing thats a make or break on this build is the running hardware. I want to run a single Arrow Shark M8 stern drive, and these things are massive from what ive seen. Not so much in height, but mainly in length, as they seem to render even some of the biggest hulls a little odd at glance, due to the drives protruding so far from the stern. However it seems that hulls with the overhanging transom, like the Central Marine Outer limits hull would help this alot id assume.
Anyone have any ideas on how I could bring this to fruition? Ive been eyeing the central marine Outer limits and fountain hulls for a long time, and 300$ is a really good price, so I may end up just saying what the heck and getting pne of those.
heres some pictures
