    NEW FighterCat Cheetah Hull

    We have a Brand New FighterCat Cheetah Hull. No holes drilled. I think the pictures tell the entire story.

    The hull is $160 right now on the FighterCat Racing website. http://fightercatracing.com/index.ph...mart&Itemid=97

    I am willing to sell for $130 and the buyer will pay the actual shipping costs.

      Box is 16 X 7 X 39 and weighs 6lbs 6oz's

      I would suggest picking your preferred shipper and see what works best for you. I normally don't like choosing for others with something this big.

      Thanks
      Mike

          Sorry, I should have provided that to you in the first place... My zip code is 48017

          I really can't help you much on the set up. Technically the hull doesn't belong to me so I wasn't planning on building anything...

          Really the possibilities are wide open. Several people have done builds on here. I would do a quick search and I am sure you will get more information than you can digest in one setting.

          Later,
          Mike

            Apologies for butting in, but I've built two Cheetah's for customers and one for myself ; all three as a simple single motor setup and this boat is just plain AMAZING when set up correctly. Buy it & I'll be glad to answer your build questions if you'd like

            use USPS Parcel Post ; lowest ship rates

                  I shouldn't get involved until boat sells BUT that should work alright.

                    Montymike. ...the motor your choosing is a little on the small side for this hull....unless your ok with over taxing the motor. I definitely don't want to go against what Tony says but I think he will agree that you may not be quite satisfied with that motor choice in that hull. I had a 1717 in mine and it was about perfect for it. It did 62mph. Could have gone faster with some tweaking. There was a guy on here that put a 1518 in his and wasn't happy with the speed so I can imagine that a 1515 would be even less impressive. Don't get me wrong, the 1515 is a little mini powerhouse, it's just not suited to this hull. This is a pretty good size boat...if you haven't seen one in person, pics do no justice. If you get it, we can help you pick a power setup for it. I was going to run a 1717 in mine I'm about to build (yes I sold the first one, and regretted it so I bought another!) But I came across a neu 1527 so I'm going to use that. I have a brand new in package 1717 motor mount for the cheetah if you decide to go that route. A tp 4070 (yea I like a tad bit overkill) would be a good choice too. I think Tony has a 4060 (maybe 4050?) In his and his Cruises pretty good.

                      I built a single cheetah, leopard 4092/1480kv on 6S running a M447, when properly set up it will run 62 mph. The boat just rocks!

                          Still avail?

                          I checked and usps is $11.50 online price to vermont ... And it's $22 at the post office, do you have the ability to print off your mailing labels?

                          Lastly is montymike taking it or is she still a available? :) I've eyeballed Tonys on YouTube as well as others for awhile now... Looks like a good mid size back seat cat!

                            Listen Fells, it's a $160 (plus shipping) from FighterCat. I am not going to waste my time "shopping" around to save $5 bucks to ship something this size for someone else. Shipping for everything these days is way out of hand, that is why (in most cases) I am going to ask the buyer to pay ACTUAL shipping costs. You tell me what carrier and any additional features you want (insurance, tracking, etc...)

                            No one has stated they would take it at the asking price. I will continue to hang on to it for the asking price at this moment. It's only been on the board for a few hours.

                              Yes, it's possible for me to print mailing labels... however I would highly suggest added insurance. I can not and will not be responsible for damaged goods during shipping. the item will be shipped in the same box and "foam" that it was originally shipped in from across the pond. I can supply a picture of the box/boat before taping up.

                              I have a well respected past of selling quality goods, accurately describing them, and shipping quickly.
