    Well, I've been doing some research on buying boat kit, parts, decals etc...trying to find out how much the cowl, driver, dummy engine and wing are from hydroscalecreations.us...Sent an email to Mitch a couple days ago but have yet to get a reply...anybody buy stuff from him? I'm guessing he's a one man operation...

      Update:
      Just heard back from Mitch @ hydroscalecreations...all good! Good info from him and offered a couple different variations of the scale model to choose from.

        I'm in the middle of building a 2009 U-3 Master Tire, I will be posting some pics soon. It's one of Mike's kits and some parts from Mitch as well. First attempt at FE after running nitro in WA. Lean numbers in AZ but there are a few guys. I can't wait to see the Turbinator on the water.

          Already into the build of mine, got maybe 4 hours so far. The ML kits make this easy, I think this is gonna be a seriously fun class the get going here on the east coast.

            Could be a good class for Atlanta. I'm already working our guys over to commit to traveling there.

                We've found the best motor for 10th scale is the Dynamite 1500Kv, and your choice of esc
