    FS: Race-ready ARTR Delta Force 33

    SOLD TO ROBERT:

    1 Delta Force (authentic) 33.5" mono with hull, hardware, motor, ESC, rudder servo, and 4 props ALL for $675 (Paypal, shipped and insured w/in Cont US). Just add radio and batteries and you are racing.

    Hull and hardware: bought here about a month ago from Adam Dreher. Since purchase, I have added 3" speed master strut and extended rudder back to match distance. I have replaced cable with brand new Jeff Wholt 0.15" cable with 3.16" stubb. I replaced the motor mount with the same kind that has an ESC plate on top for added convenience and coolness. I added all new cooling tubes. I have run this maybe a dozen times and added a few cosmetic features (a couple scratches to the bow and a chip under the stinger), which I have sealed with 30 minute Epoxy and sanded smooth. I had a misfortunate meltdown with a CC 120 which only left the inside of the hatch slightly discolored, but no odor remained in the boat. Beyond this, the is ABSOLUTELY structurally perfect. No stress cracks or other unmentioned scratches/dings. The back of the hull came to me scuffed with probably 400 gr sandpaper.

    Motor: I put a Neu 1521 1.5D (1900 KV) motor I also bought here with cooling jacket. It runs super cool (<140 F even after 2-3 minutes full throttle). Absolutely no play in the shaft, in top shape.

    ESC: This is a Hydra 240 with a little over a dozen runs. I bought this from a friend who bought it new and ran it 5 times. It has 5.5 mm bullets and has never gotten over 140F.

    Props: It has an Octura X447/3 blade, very nicely balanced, sharpened and thinned, and I am including an X450 b/s/thinned, a raw aluminum X448 and a CF 448.

    Performance: On 4S2P and the x448 prop, this will run in the mid to upper 40s (all speeds from Garmin GPS). On the same prop and 5S she ran lower to mid 50s - I only ran it for a minute on this set up on the ETTI 150 - thus the Hydra 240. The fastest I have had this was 57mph on X445 and 5S2P and she was super stable. From what I have seen, this hull can easily handle low 60s on a calm day. I will try to get some action shots and video posted - Camel? can you help me out on this?

    I have documented all the features of this boat and stand behind all I have stated, therefore expect no surprises - other than how big of a smile you will have when you are driving this! Here is a great race set up and is just too much boat for me right now.

    I will post lots of pics so buyer knows exactly what is being delivered.

    Thanks for looking.

    Note, please use thread for questions, offers etc. This will make everybody happier. If you must PM me, please post "PM sent" in the thread to time stamp it. This way EVERYBODY knows who posted when.

    Exterior Deck

    topside pics. Graphics were professionally done and have not faded or started to come off at all. Looks like a protective layer of dull coat was applied. Very sharp

        Secret to the success: hull

        Here is the best part of this deal: perfect hull. Slightly scuffed in the rear with slight chip in the base of the vee.

          whats inside

          This is set up for large packs in parallel, with super velcro and a handy strap. Motor mount is in perfect working order and rails are solid. ESC is in perfect order as well as powerful motor.

            Motor etc.

            More shots of the inside. Super clean and ready to rock! Flex shaft is new and has been lubed every run with GrimRacer blue lube. Motor is solid, no play at all. Transom is clean, no mold or scum. I sealed the two holes where the previous rudder mount was using 30 minute Epoxy.

                  I need a Zip code, but I am pretty sure it will be out of the question. It will cost probably $40-$50 to ship US, so it would have to be cheaper than this for it to work. Can't come down on price - its already a steal. Put up your zip and we can see how much more it would cost to ship.

                  thanks

                      Just a quick check on the UPS calculator came up with over $200... I can try other ways and let you know, that is if it is still available.

                        I will go with your original asking price if possible to ship to Canada.

                          I would bet that you will be near $800 when the shipping smoke clears. If you take it, I will work with you on shipping. I will do some more research and see what I come up with. Be aware that I will not eat $200 worth of shipping.

                            Great.
                            Please work it out. I have order things from other countries and shipping was not too bad. $200.00 is way too high in my opinion. I will pay what you asking for, well make it $680.00 shipped. I will be at work for next 8 hours and check posts after that. Thanks.

                              Robert, the deal can also be looked at this way: I will take $630 + actual shipping. This is a deal for Cont US since shipping will be about $50. If buyers would rather do it this way, no problem.

                              Since the least I was able to calculate on UPS with the box I will be shipping will cost about $200, that would mean this deal will cost $830 - thus why I said I would let you have it for $800.
