    New DF Cyber Storm 33 need advise for hardware

    Need help with set up for DF Cyber Storm 33. First mono boat. I plan to run it P Mono 4 cell. Using Leopard 4074 2000 Kv. Going to run a wet well. Need advise on strut, distance from hull, brand? Rudder length, offset, distance from hull or align with prop? Turn fin size, cavitation plates.
    Basically need help with everything on the back end.

    My Cyber Storm arrived Monday from OSE. Very nice with excellent glass work. The bottom is pretty straight and will require very little work to blue print. I have ordered everything (I think) needed to complete it form advice on the OSE and RC Groups message boards. I will keep you posted as the build goes along. Thanks for the advise.

      Transom reinforcement

      I am going to add carbon fiber to the bottom. Should I reinforce the transom with plywood? Or just run the carbon fiber up it?

        I did mine with wood on the back. Nice boat, you will be happy with it.

          Thanks. I will ad plywood. Also if I use blind nuts it would give them something to bite into.

            I laminated 2 pieces of 1/8” plywood (not the light plywood with the soft center) with the grain at 90 degrees. After proper prep I epoxied it in. The picture is of the jig for a tight fit and let cure vertical. That way any squeeze out won’t pool in the bottom of the V.
