I just about have everything ready to go just waiting on the weather now. It was supposed to be partly cloudy not overcast and misting!

[dirtysouth31]

Is there any life left in this group since the unfortunate dirt slinging episopde that seemed to kill this thread?

good one

[Diegoboy]

Thanks. It still wasn't as good as "beanstalk beans" but I liked it!

[Meniscus]

I hope all is well with everyone. I'm going to try to be on more often now that hunting season is over. I'm planning on running some boats cold weather or not in preparation to participate this coming year and support the local FE guys, whoever they may be.

In the meantime, I'm still working on a pond for the Old Dominion guys. We'll have to see how it goes.

If anyone needs anything I have to test with or use such as props, batts, motors, ESC's, etc, please let me know. I'm more than happy to lend out what I have to help a fellow boater. If for some reason you can't reach me, Diego and Egneg have my number.

Here's to a Happy New Year and enjoying the hobby we love.

Coming Soon

Coming soon to a pond near you!!!

Just under 16" in length, Walter Geens' Batrax Rigger, one of two ever made, only one surviving intact.

Now I know what to do with this Ammo 20-40-3500! However, it may get a B20 Hacker with appropriate KV depending on what battery will fit.

I can't wait wait. Welcome back Meniscus!!

[egneg]

Ben did it come with any hardware?

If not check on this.

Thanks egneg. It is coming with all of the hardware, but I believe it isn't coming with ESC or motor. At some point in it's life, the rudder was replaced with one that was set back further for performance reasons. For cooling, it features a propwash pickup.

They used to run the small Hackers such as the B20 series. I have a few motors and a ESC for this application. If those don't work, then I may pickup something else up down the line. My main concern is a battery to fit in the thing. I've been doing a little research, but it's hard to get too far along without having it in my hand.

I'm very excited about getting my hands on this boat.
=> BTW, egneg, I still have some of that other hardware sitting around if you need something. My offer to you stands that I have it and you need it, you're welcome to have it. Just let me know.
