You after just hull/hardware? or need motor/esc too? I have a microcat hydro hull if interested.

I could let you have the microcat hydro hull for $45 plus shipping. It doesn't have the standard hatch, I am in the middle of making a new one out of foam and epoxy. I can send you pics tonight or tomorrow.

I also have a virgin BBY MTH hull with reinforcing framework from Dr. Jet I could let you have for $45 plus shipipng. This still needs to be assembled, but have the recommended stuffing tube, bearings and some other stuff that was outlined by those guys.

Let me know and I will try to get back as quick as I can,

I have a small hull for sale. I just listed it as mini hydro. check it out.

[Jesse J]

I think you would be happy with mpg43's hull, especially if you have all the hardware. looks like a good deal.

Got those pics and specs?

Got those pics and specs?

It's right here in the swap shop. it is listed as mini hydro. pics and specs are there

This current set up is a rocket, but if you are needing a hull, I could strip off the hardware. I will post up pics of the MTH in a few. I have more photos of this if you want. I will be sealing up the foam canopy - but it will need paint. The hull is clean except for minor crack along rear port that I have sealed up with CA. it has a CF motor mount that seems to be at a perfect angle.

stay tuned for MTH pics.

[Jesse J]

Here is the MTH virgin hull with custom framing (not installed) from Dr. Jet. If you want I can add the CF tube and bearing, plus the drive shaft that was recommended by his multi page thread.

either of these hulls $40 + shipping or we can call it $50 shipped.

I leave tomorrow morning for a 4 day conference, so if you want either of these, let me know by tonight so I can pack for monday shipment. Otherwise it would be Friday before I could ship.

Cheers,
J

What size motor you got in there now? What size pack do you have in it? I have a 2s 3600mah and a Turnigy 3600kv built in watercooled jacket motor

[boater76]

Is the MTH an abs hull? What would you suggest to glue it together?

Goodness, motor - its outrunner don't recall KV.... I got it off ebay as an upgrade to the mystery 3200 kv they recommended. I put in a 40amp Himodel that I water proofed and cooled which also runs on pistol radio. I ran it on a 3S flightpower 1500mah pack (I have a pair that you could run in parallel) and it wanted to fly. I kinda bent the flex shaft and loosened the motor when it flipped and landed backwards with the motor still revving. Motor still works and I was going to add a 1/8" thrust bearing (which I could include) to keep the motor from pushing out.

It has sat since then, I didn't get a chance to tune it to keep it on the water. I did play with the strut and make sure it was more adjustable than when I got it, now you could put more angle on it to keep the bow down. This thing like it is on 3S would be 40mph rascal, but needs some dialing. If you want it, I can put in a new flex (if I have some extra) and give you a price for it as an ARR (it really is set up nicely as is).

The MTH build you would want to visit the thread by Dr. Jet

Either way let me know. If you need more pics of either (please specify) I can provide.
