      Good run there bud!
      Havent Andy convinced you already to go to the dark side? Or is it you convincing Andy to go FE? hahahaha!

      You do know that a lot .........and I mean a lot of folks are wishing they live close to Andy, right? AC hulls are still considered as the best out there when it comes to quality, durability and race proven design.

      On other news, my 37" Cat pic album here in OSE is basically filled - I cant seem to add more to the album unless I make a another album or part 2. Molds are done except for the canopy, so its moving along.
      But we do need that Komodo logo from you before this Cat gets out you know! hehehe!

        I was looking at the bracing in the bow of the 45 Lazers and listening to the tales of battle.I'm probably going to brace the Pursuit like his as it will probably be bounced off of from time to time,but that's with the FE guys. I'm thinking of a Lazer FE myself.IO just got to cram it full of batteries for the weight it needs to run with everyone(especially Andy I'm told).These guys are running 15-16lb boats.

        Currently my 35" DF passes them and runs long enough(just) but lacks the weight to hold a choppy corner.It is going pretty good though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIyfv...=youtube_gdata

              Here's a small update on the 37" Komodo Cat:

              Something is brewing inside the molds!!

              I never got an answer to this, but do you guys still want the top air scoop to be molded as one or a separate option?
              Pls let me know what you guys think.

                    So does Tony have any logging on what the draw was with that setup. Just wondering if a CC Ice 200 would be up to the task.

                      Yeah, I was envisioning a lower profile on the canopy.

                      I dunno if Tony has logged any info but will ask him the next time.

                            I completed, run and finally gave the 1/18 xray M18 to my son who recently turned 9 last Sept 1 - its a fast one!
                            However it seems my rc car/ truck days are behind me now. There is a nice rc app that I downloaded on my ipad - absolute rc plane sim which i enjoy playing daily! Lol! No need to get into real rc planes or helis with this free app!

                            Wow! We're nearing 100 pages now - cant believe it! I actually thought the 37" Cat wouldnt make it before that! Hahaha!
