Hey Guys,
Just about done with my FIRST project boat and thought I'd post some pics. Being new to the RC Boating hobby it only made sense to build a SAW boat. :doh: isn't that what all the nOObs build first.....:rockon2: And the thought of seeing a RTR boat sit on my work bench all winter and waiting for the pond to thaw just did not seem to make sense. ( I like to work on stuff) So I went with the TFL Genesis 900. It also helped there was a ton of info here at OSE for this boat. Of course it also helps to know someone in a club who is willing to spend an hour or more on the phone the first time you talk to them about bending stuffing tubes and such.:bowdown: (Names have been left out to protect the innocent). :wink: Anyway, here are some pics and specs. T180 V2 ESC, Leopard 3674 1700kv, 3/16" upgraded flex shaft w/larger stuffing tube & teflon liner, RC Boat Bitz Hardware, Extra-Large water cooling lines and fittings. Re-enforced Transom and Sponsons wth epoxy & fiberglass cloth. Just in case I go bigger with the motor one day. :buttrock: I know this boat doesn't fit into any of the P classes but hey, I can always get a Aquacraft or Proboat for that and we still have 3 more months til the pond thaws
