Hey everyone, my name is Ed and the is my first Attempt at a "completed" 1/8th Scale hydroplane. It is rigged with Speedmaster hardware, Scorpion 4035 800kv and a Castle 200HV esc. Prather 235 and a 240 prop to start out with I have a few Octura three blades to play with around the same size. soon she will have a Neu 1527 1.5Y swapped in soon to.

Thanks! I'll keep you in mind if I have to sell her lol. I spent lots of time looking at other peoples scale builds and other boats to get some good ideas.
I'm thinking of doing the 92 Winston Eagle, but not sure on the hull to buy. Thinking of getting a wood kit from ML Boat works or a Phil Thomas hull.Comment

Thanks Dasboata!
yes here is what I have Can Take More Pics. I made the motor mount out of a stock sheet of 1/8" carbon and laminated it with west systems. its mde to be a quick change, four pan head Allens under the belly pan and four nut in the engine well, the the whole mount and motor comes out.
The Strut is Speedmaster 1/4" shaft with a 3/16 stub for the prop. Speedmaster rudder. No Idea on the turn fin, the mount is a chunk of aluminum angle and the skid fin is hooked and came with the hull, I run a Home made one like what was on the bud. (I didn't put on the turn buckles on but I made them)
