    This is Randy on Properchoppers computer
    I did not get to run it too much at Heather farms, the pond was small and there was way too many kid around. I had to rethink the CG with the sponsons foward, the cg is about three inches back from the rear of the sponson. I ran it twice once the cg was right. I had messed up the ESC and only had 1/4 throttle but it worked good other wise. We will get some video this weekend.

    Back from the A.L. SAW's Manny thanks to Properchopper for his hospitality, What a bud. Thanks to Wilmer for all his help too. The Seismic Amigos put on a great event again!

    While getting settled back in to work again I stumbled on a cool way to cap your connectors while setting them up for parallel or sceries setups. I added a little shrink warp to the neg side of the connectors and cut it with a Exacto knife.


    I realized that it could be put back on if stretched a little with needle nose pliers. It is alos nice to have the extra shrink a little long to have a good handle on the cap.


    I am able to link the batteries in series like so. I will post more as the build goes.

    Randy screw the text updates.
    I want to see a webcam with pan and tilt. That would be very cool!

    In all seriousness, this text/blog is a cool idea, thanks for letting us in on your activities!

    Thanks Steve, I do have a Skype account it could work on the pan and scan setup, but then my my flatulence would be too apparent.

    Any back to the tip, end result of the 10S2P

    I have a 34 inch sport hydro in process. I started it a while ago. It needs a little work to get it done.

    In pictures 4 is the 36 inch version in the link below. In the fifth picture is the 30 inch sport hydro I have been procrastinating over for about 5 years.

    This is a little nitro boat Of course it started as electric, but the construction of the new wings and cowl (to be done a little later) for the all time favorite Blue Blaster is interesting so I thought I would show it. I have been working on the boat for the last two days got a bit done. It will be done in a little while, like a few more days of work and a little mold work for the new Blue blaster cowl to match the wings. This is the mock up shot.

    I took the header from AQ and cut it to fit the boat. I need to order some screws to fit this setup.

    I also have just about finished Dannys boat.

    I have been on a 3 day trip to get a car for my son. It was a 1971 Impala drop top with 130,000 miles we went up to Seattle Sunday on a plane. then rented a PT cruiser drove out and looked at the car. Had lunch to digest what we saw and made a offer that was excepted and drove to Portland Ore. that night. Then drove to Arebuckel CA. by 10;00pm We had charging trouble on the last leg of the trip. I thought it was a starter, two battery's later we made it home by 5;00PM on Tuesday night.

    It may not seem like it now, but you'll look back on that time and smile.

    Randy, did you get my email? Sorry to hear that you're sick. Hatch tape works for me! Just a little humor for the day.

    Got it. Just be sure to watch the seams!

    You know, slobber wipes off the hardware better than the hulls for the day. Try some different music, that's what I do when I have to work on a vehicle and am unmotivated. Try the band "Cake" if you have any. They're enough to be distracting and still get work done. LOL

    Work for the day, it does not seem like much. But each and every one of the shafts are perfect! Straight, and the drilling for the center hole is PERFECT! each shaft fit like a glove. They are air drying after cleaning.
