Ok I'm ordering one of these in about an hour, i have dumbe question about the hull, what is on the outside? the depron or the balsa? And DiegoBoy, when i get mine up and running I'm sure I'm going to need some guidance on setting up the hardware, like settings,strut depth etc.

No prob. The balsa is on the outside. Paint as desired, or seal the balsa for the "wood" look.

ok this will be my last question until i get it, what lipo pack do you use and how do you like it?Comment

I use this Lipo. It has a built in balancer, so I don't have to worry...
I was reluctant to go Lipo, but this battery, with it's simplicity, made it easy for me."A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."

thanks for the help, now i know you need special chargers, what would be an alright charger, nothing fancy because like you I'm still wary of Lipo's, and this is my only boat running them.Comment

...always kickin' me when I'm down huh Dirty?
So I modded my charger, then blew the transformer, now I'm reduced to doing all my charging in the sun, under my car hood since I voided my warranty.
Thanks for reminding me how much it sucks to be me..."A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."

Might be a dumb question, does this thing have cooling?Comment
-
There was no cooling, and no real need as the motor never gets too hot. Steve has designed a cooling device that he put on the prototype boat (mine) and he will soon make the cooling available for those that want it. Remember that it's not needed.
Here are the pics of the cooling...
Keep in mind that it's an outrunner motor, therefore a water jacket cannot be used.Last edited by Diegoboy; 08-03-2007, 11:19 PM."A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."
