Do you do this kinda like outdoor with driver and spotter

Yes, although in the pool it's easier to keep track for some reason. Normally if a counter is needed we grab volunteers, for the most part there is normally enough folks to go around. And if we do miss count/loose count/etc, the CD use's his special powers to determine a placement.

Do the pool opens at noon and you race at 1:30 2:30 and 3:30? Do the scale guys run in between heats?

The pool is located inside the high school, it will be open before noon, however there will be people using it. At noon our time slot starts, the scale guys will have 30 mins first, then a whistle will blow and we will run for 30 mins, and so on until 3pm. (12.30, 1,30, 2.30).

Thanks for the clarification. There are 3 or 4 of us coming from the kankakee area. Are you opposed of us trying to run a tunnel in the offshore race on 2 cell?

I'm not personally opposed to it, the pool is really tight, so it will need to turn well. The CD (Mike) will get to make that call. Again, bring it, and let's just see. (Unless Mike chimes here of course.....)

just got the ruling from Mike via phone, "so long as it looks offshore and has a stock motor, its cool"

That said, if it falls outside this, there still might be chance to play time permitting.

Does someone have Mikes email? Or I am looking for an ose parts list on how he upgraded that mini mono shaft. We dug thru the basement and found the old mini mono. Also trigger what diameter prop was on your revolt.

Mike is H&YRacing, I'll tell you now there is no parts list......But feel free to ask him. Mike is a fabricator and enjoys custom stuff. (he's in this thread)

Not sure on the prop size, there are no numbers on it, looks about 45mm. Doesn't look like a lot of pitch though. (I have no pitch measurement tools)

No doubt you'll have it figured out soon enough

Dan,
The shaft is an Octura .098 flex cable. OSE sells it either unassembled or assembled. I'm trying to figure out how to attach the link, but don't see how. The OSE part number for the assembled shaft is OSE-098L. Under Home, Hardware, Flex Cable Assemblies.

Thanks. Did you replace motor coupler too ? Does ose recommend the stuffing tube size?

I made my own coupler. I wanted one longer with good fits.

I used a piece of brass tubing for the stuffing tube. The size is the one with 1/8" ID.

[dan pralle]

Thanks for the info

[Captain Spaulding]

I'm looking forward to it also.I picked up a Joysway Mad Shark tunnel hull, the white brushless version with a flood chamber.It should be a nice little boat for the mini class
