JAE Mini Sprint

[raptor347]

Micro riggers go mainstream. Great for clubs with limited space.

I may have to order some bits just to build a small pond rigger.

oo oo oo me want me want.

ZIPPKITS WILL BE WORKING FULL BLAST ON THIS KIT AS SOON AS WE CAN COMPLETE THE PLANS FOR PUBLICATION.....
SHOULD BE NO LONGER THAN A COUPLE OF WEEKS........

The motors stator was 170'
The battery was 150' This is a old 2200 25c pack that I got used so I have no idea how many cycles are on, it and I'm sure I was over it's C rating.
I put 1675ma back in it after the run.
The ESC was 125'
I'd look for a lower kv motor to run on 3s.

That's pretty toasty! I bet a 3500kv with cooling would be peachy on 3s, possibly even a 32mm prop as well.

Doug;
It sure does sound like a 20 rigger running on 3s.

great running little rigger.

I said the same thing Carl.
I bet we end up with a half a dozen of these things at the club.

Oh Yeah

I love the minis and this one looks great. A small tight oval with 5 of these on it would be a very fun afternoon. You could build 7 of these for the price of one 40inch double motor cat!! Sign me up!

The sprint is up on the Zippkit website, expected delivery April 20th. This could be a great boat for our club too as long as I don't have to build them all.

[wparsons]

Excellent news! And, a new site for zippkits too!

[NativePaul]

Doh, no plans on the new site though.

Does anyone know when Zippkits will have these plans? Is it still April 20th?
Thanks!

Website shows kits available 4/20. I'm guessing the easiest way to find out is send Joe and email through their website on when the plans will be posted. On another note, the website has recently been revised and I can't find any plans on it anymore.

Spoke to Joe about the release date on the kits & he said he hoped the date was good providing everything comes together ok. Re plans he hopes to release them on or before the date given. Thanks Martin.
