anyone interested in a mean machine

[ozzie-crawl]

i would like to do another tunnel hull and contemplating selling my mean machine
just thought i would see if there is any interest
would be hull and hardware,8xl,servo
no esc,batts or rx
this is the hull steve sells,electric layup.
as it looks like by the time i sell then get parts for a tunnel i will loose to many $$$$ so going to try for a swap on electric buggy/truck

How about 1/2 a packet of smokes and a warm beer ??

[ozzie-crawl]

i knew you would be first in for a stir andy, but the way smokes have gone up its a tempting offer

What kind of speed were you getting and with what setup? Prop? Batts? etc.?

[ozzie-crawl]

dom i was running 2x 2s 30c 5000 turnigy batts
speeds were prop dependent, from memory
x637 43 mph
s215 45 mph
x642 high 40s short run time 1.5 minutes

I have been real close to getting one of the flood hulls for a project as I have a mm already and love it..... Don't want to insult so maybe you should add a selling price..... There's always gonna be interest in these:) mine handles almost like a rigger and it's my favorite, most reliable boat.

jmscard, problem is in Australia they are a lot more to build than in the u.s
the hull alone was $250 aus shipped
and people can buy the Chinese hull for $60
dont want to rip anyone of or sell to cheap
postage to the us will be around $80 aus by the looks of it, would need to take to po to get correct price

like the custom hatch, how much shipped to Pukekohe, New Zealand ?

[ozzie-crawl]

it has both hatchs, shipping is around $55 to n.z
still not sure one what price i should ask yet
i know its second hand but there is around $350 u.s in parts
its in perfect condition and its the electric hull

[crabstick]

55 usd or Aud?

[ozzie-crawl]

Aus dollars

[crabstick]

thats pretty good, lemme know when you know your price. would make a good P offshore.

A hint for you when posting, If you put it in a cubed box, they charge by the size of the box, but if you tape another smaller box to it to alter the shape they have to charge by weight which often ends up being cheaper.

thanks heath,thats the problem shipping internationally to or from oz its expensive

[Heath M]

No probs, it's the same within OZ, i sent my 29 cat down to sydney for painting and it cost me $35 and took a week to get there. My brother taped a smaller box to it and shipped it back express overnight and it cost $30 lol thats something Aus post won't tell you
