        ED,in my reading on the new hull,the BlackJack strut assembly is the one you should grab.On the Mystic they changed the servo around a bit from the Geico.On the BJ they put it back.I haven't seen it but Darrin mentioned it.

        Holy,are we burning through pages.It is all I can do to keep up

            Dont you dare bother Jason - he's packing something for me! hahahahaha!

            Okay guys, here's an idea - since the innards of my MG is now enroute to Jason, how about if I put a Leo 4082 1600kv, T-180 and 6s (2x3s) on MG?? Stepehen recommends a lower prop like 40mm. If it goes beyond, you think its gonna come back? Lol!

            Shawn buddy - would it be hard for you to convince me to go twin in the upcoming Komodo 37" Cat? Better catch me now till I change my mind ......Lol!
            Basically, I would like to know the exact electronics and hardware needed with quotes/prices if possible. I know I may cringe, but we only live once, right? hahaha!
            Hook me up bud!

                I've got a pair of 1100 kv Castle outrunners coming for it.
                FIGHTERCATThe 240 twin ESC is perfect for you.You should only turn no more than 100 amps per motor peak on a twin.

                  The 240 twin ESC is $140,the stingers are $30 each(you will be able to find them elsewhere.And I myself would get cables from Randy at BBY.Those would be $20 a piece.

                      Skyman nice slash parts,, but keep in mind aluminum parts bend and cause more stress on the suspension of the truck!!! I built a LST all aluminum just to look cool and trust me trucks withstand more of a beating with the plastic stuff, everything can flex and not bend or brake but i do love the look of all aluminum.. I agree with Mac, do all the body work on your MG then start putting it together, it will be much easyer if you dont have gear on it and electrics inside to work around..
                      I used to get the old BoatModeler Magazine and loved it, i actauly still have a stack of them here somewhere, i cant wate for it to come out...
                      Mac sorry to here about only getting to run 1 but next time im bet youll be ready....
                      Merry X-mas Taga!!! oops not yet...

                        So around $200 without motors and rudder? 2 x 6s?

                            Looks like $240 before shipping.You might be able to find everything but the ESC elsewhere.HOR has it but not that much different in price.

                            I'm just messing around with the fonts.Didn't even realize they were there.

                                Thanks bud!
                                Just look at the damage in the pic ..............heck, it wasnt even my fault as I dont touch that part.
                                The stinger shaft unscrewed itself and binded with the prop dog - full throttle and it was like a tugboat.
                                Apparently, the threaded portion broke.

                                Im having a boating buddy make me another shafting out of stainless rather than aluminum.
