Renegade Rigger (Price Drop)

[andym]

I have just ordered one of these can you please give me the dimensions of the battery so can order and know that they will fit. Thanks

[Diegoboy]

My battery is...
1-5/8 W
3-1/8 L
5/8 H

Mine is a tight fit because of the built in balancer. The battery recommended (on the website) fits much better. I have to put the discharge lead into the nose of the hull, because where it wants to sit naturally (on the side of the battery) will be far too tight, but it will fit. I find it easier to work with by putting that discharge lead in the nose.

Absolutely! Just keep me posted.

Here is the pic. Remember she was in a severe wreck...
Those reinforcement pieces were put there by Steve to close the breach in the tub hull.



This is one of the accident pics


Notice that the rear Carbon Fiber sponson boom is snapped apart. Had to be a big hit to break CF.

Ouch, That must have made a pretty sweet sound. Im still waiting to hear back from him on this, but I will keep you posted

I'm building mine right now, and I'm stuck. The rudder bracket, is it flush with the side of the tub and the bottom of the tub?

I'm really surprised at how easy this is so far. I cant wait to run it.

Sorry for the delay. Work had me on overnight installs.

Here's 2 pics of my transom.

i just ordered a renegade without realizing that the hardware is not avalible. Does anyone know were i can get one? Or does anyone know when thay will be in stock?Also does anyone one know what reciver and servo fits best so i can get them on order? Thanks for any advise

[Diegoboy]

The HW package is only sold by OSE & Fields. (from post #6). The reason they are both out is because the mfg is low on the "Strut". You could purchase each part individually from the list on either site, then try to find the strut somewhere else.
Just a suggestion that I'd try rather than wait.

im gonna go steal diegos when hes at work

Yeah it sucks I ordered one after reading this thread and watching the vid. A great little project. The struts are whats out of stock, emailed Steve at OSE and asked him if the minicat hardware would be good but he said he could not recomend because he doesn't know if a .98 flex is to small or not. A pitty realy as the look better.

Fine design has a 3/16ths strut, not sure if its too big though

The FDM strut $21 http://www.finedesignrc.com/hardware.asp

[Diegoboy]

that strut is the one you guys need. Be sure that he has the stock, I heard his bin qty is not accurate.

[SJFE]

I have one smaller than that
