    Talking Apache journey to 5s

    First i cut the bowl out of the hull to allow more room to work.
    Then i had to make my own motor mount and replace the stuffing box for a .150 flex cable and make a support for the end.
    Mounted the BJ26SS prop strut and dry lined everything up.
    Mounted BJ26SS turn fin. finding good mount for servo.
    Also added another water pickup for separate cooling of the motor and esc. (pick up came off stock bj26 brushless prop strut)
    Going to mount copper tubing in the bottom of the hull about half way leaving a 1inch gap at the rear with epoxy to allow water to flow at the very bottom if any gets inside and allows it to drain. also makes flat for lipos and adds a little weight to a very light hull.
    Enjoy! ill update the pictures the further i go along.
