    Gonna try to make it on the 27th. Thought you might like to see some photos of my 1/8 scale. She's not completely done yet but finally got it trimmed out and painted.

          Thanks Bill. I did the graphics in the computer and then sent them to a place to 'print and cut'. They came out pretty good.

                    I'd like to have it ready for Feb 27th but don't dare tape it for about a month. Otherwise, it's gonna pull off the clearcoat! It's gonna be a real beatch to tape anyway.

                    Still have a lot of work to do on the shaft, esc, battery mounts, etc on the interior. Not sure this guy is gonna be all that watertight! I'm thinking about a radio box for the esc and receiver!

                        The hull is actually a "chisel nose". Not many of them made.

                          LOL If I had been running my 6s packs, probably would have let off a little on occasion. To add insult to injury that run was only on my 5s packs. (I wanted an excuse in case it went the other way)

                                I have a Leopard 5692, 1080KV in the big hydro. I wonder if the Swordfish 240 would handle it? Gonna run on 8S. I was planning to use a Castle 240HV but would rather spend less $$$ if possible! I already have a new in box Castle but would sell it if I thought the swordfish would hold up.
