    BudIce Trimaran

    I have a very retro Kyosho kit in great shape here. These are becoming very hard to come by in this nice of condition. I replaced the trans with an ose carbon mount & reinforced it with 2x2 twill carbon fiber cloth. Included is an ose 5mm to 4mm universal coupler. The hull measures 36x9 and is super light. I removed the battery box in order to make a battery & radio tray in the botton of the hull for low cg. It can easley be reinstalled if you choose. I was also going to glue in the sub hatch and cut a new square tapable hatch into it. The steerable OD is ballraced and has a heavy duty steel dogbone. it can be setup for 700 brushed or any brushless system. If you want to build somthing very scale & diffrent this hull is for you.

    I am looking for 75+ actual ground shipping. Paypal only. PM me for shipping quotes.

    Please wait for confirmation before making payment. Paypal is [email protected]















    Details Details...Taylor's correct. kyosho named it the BladeRunner...and it also can be considered a canard.

              Just so you know Tom and others... I know exactly where a REAL version of this boat is being stored... There is one behind a warehouse down in Kent, WA that my son and I walk past from time to time... I'll see if I can get some pics of it... Odd looking, but fun to ponder...

                I'm still thinking about it. I need another boat like I need another hole in my head.

                But,,,,,,,, I do have a 9xl sitting on my bench that needs a good home, sounds like it might be a good match on 4S.

                Is there room in the hull for 2, 4s packs??

                How much would shipping be to the Great White North ??

                  Yup you can run a battery tray longway in the bottom. they will fit side by side also I bet. I can't run ups from my phone here. When I get home Ill test 4s-2p where I was going to mount it & run shipping numbers

                    Thanks Tom; would you mind taking a pic and posting the layout with the Batteries in the hull. I'm still trying to justify this to myself, but would love first shot at the hull.

                      I have some balsa and bass I had cut for the layout. Ill set it in there & snap a couple pictures around 4 this afternoon. I guestimate about 35 to 40 shipped. 40in box and all. like I said I'd split it.

                              Yeah those boats are funny. I ran in the smaller one with twin OB's and it was a cool feeling unlike you have felt. handles water like a V but runs like car and turns like a cat.
                              very odd but awesome to get 110 mph out of a HUGE boat like that with two small OB's
