    Refuse the box exists!

    I like the idea! Makes sense. I think we'll have to get a test hull going...(wondering if that is what my build rigger will become, LOL)

    Meanwhile, some calculations need to be made for scale. Are we still thinking about twin? (working along the same lines as your new purchase?) I think that may handle some of the stability woes.

        Maybe I can offer up the Graupner Silver bullet as the prototype?

          Egneg, you'll know soon, but I don't even have your phone number or email to discuss, LOL!

          Diego, it would be a shame to tear the bullet up. Especially since its going to take a lot of trial and error. Thanks for the contribution though! Maybe you could interest someone off of Hanbury.

          Where's a pic of this other rigger???

            Here is a pic of Dirtys new "chinky rigger"
            Hanbury? I was thinking the same thing, but I gotta fix her up first.

                Is that a xzess II? or copy? (haven't compared pics)

                  It is not like the Xzess II, This one is called the x-crab I doubt it is a direct copy of anything because it has some inherent design flaws.

                        They look almost exactly like my current drawings for me build/rebuild, LOL. Wouldn't that be nice. We'll have to see how much they are.
