Select private messages, look to the left hand side of that page where it shows the control panel. Find the heading to "edit avatar", select it and the rest is about the same as posting pictures in a thread.
You will be able to create your own albums, as well and provide any general info about yourself as you feel comfortable listing and you can add friends to your group. Kind of a mini facebook kind of thing.

where did you order that 4"rudder from? could you provide me the part number for the Kintec racing offset brkt? not sure what your talking about removing the bottom portion brkt. Is there anyway you could mark on the picture what you did to the kintec brkt or show me what you did in a video?
Not sure what pics, rudder or even who your asking, but heres the version 2 bracket that the bottom is already cut out of. top of this page http://kintecracing.com/Miss_Geico_Upgrades.html
And the only rudders Ive seen on the last couple pages are the stock Proboat Miss Geico rudders.
Big Lebowski, I think the information you posted will be helpful for others with this boat. I agree with your insight. I ended up looking at the Kintec offset rudder system and made my own system as I saw the problem with drag by looking at the Kintec design. Mine works great and the boat handles great even at over 80mph. Boy, this boat does have a lot of potential.
Man I would love to see the video of a MG going 80mph! Where in NC are you?

This is my setup leo 4074 2000kv fits perfect supported the back and used stock mount on front.running it on 4s dont no what prop is best yet.
I live in Lenoir, NC and here is a video I had my nephew shoot of my boat with my camera. Sorry he didn't know how to use the zoom on the camera so the boat is far away making it appear not to be going as fast as a closer shot would have. The batteries died just before I was going to give it full throttle in this video. I probably got up to 80% throttle here.

That boat looks like it is hooked up really well and very fast. Thank you for the video. :)
Any time TWCFI, I need to get out again and have a better video of the boat where it's not so far away. I also need to hook up my micro cam to her for an on-board ride. Best I can figure, all I need is a cat (6) or better SD card as my micro cam only shoots in high def. You can see some of the videos I shot with the on-board camera and they skip. I'm not happy with that. Those videos were shot with a smaller motor and smaller prop. With even more speed I expect the skipping video issue will be even worse. The SD card I was using doesn't indicate speed although it's an HC card. I think all I need is a faster SD card. If you shoot HD videos have you ever had this experience?
I shoot a bunch of HD videos, but use a GoPro and a Contour camera. I primarily use it on a plane that I teach in but have no issues with skipping. I have used it on an 1/5th scale off road truck with no skipping either.
The Countor GPS camera will provide map overlay and gps readouts with the software downloaded from their website. Works really well. The camera isn't water proof but they do sell a case for it that is. If you are happy with your camera I would first try a faster card.
I hope some of this helps.
Bob
