Pretty much done finally. It was a bit of a nightmare getting it converted to fe but pretty happy with the results. There is a clear lexan cover over the motor bay (pretty hard to see in the photo,s)

[siberianhusky]

When are you going to get it wet? Hoping to get out this weekend.

[kendt]

It will get wet as soon as someone with a canoe has some free time...

[eboat]

That is not very optimistic (the canoe part)

[kendt]

LOL well I cant get it wet till i have a way to chase after it. And Im pretty sure I will have to ...

[rc2266]

Sounds like you drive the way I do, all out!!!

[kendt]

Ya go fast or go home....eh eh

[johnmaclean]

Looks great Kendt. I can hardly wait to see it run but thes next couple of weeks are crazy busy for me. Let me know if you and Husky are gonna be out there Saturday morning. I might be able to swing by for a bit . . even if it just to watch you run. Back to back birthday celebrations on Saturday and Sunday means little or no time for the hobby.

[kendt]

Ya hopefully well be able to get together soon. As long as i get it in the water before the ice comes ill be happy...lol. Hopefully it should go good. Turnigy 4074 on 6s....I've got a few props ready to go. Hopefully one of them will work.

Last year Husky and I finished off the season sometime in Novemebr. . . a cold day capped off by a brief snow squall.

[siberianhusky]

I'm game for Saturday morning, want to try that castle in the MC again
Also something else

Name the time and I'll be there.

[johnmaclean]

Just picked up my 42/55 prop and a bushing from Chris this afternoon. The prop will need to be sharpened and balanced and I don't know if I'll have time before the weekend. I'll let you know for sure about Saturday morning, but with the weekend schedule I would say the earlier the better.

[kendt]

I can do earlier too. Not really a problem. Do either of you guys have a y connector I could try for running 2 packs parallel, If you dont I can still run but if you do I have more batteries to use.

[johnmaclean]

I can do 8:30 if you guys are up for it. The only "y" connectors I have are series. What connectors are you using? Mine are EC5's.

[siberianhusky]

I'm good. for 8:30. I have no spare connectors at this point, just used them all up on a new motor.
See ya'll Saturday as long as it's not pouring rain.

[slowride]

How is the lexan fasted down ?

[kendt]

The lexan is held in place by waterproof tape and one safety screw.

[johnmaclean]

8:30 it is then. I'll bring along the generator and charger. . . and maybe a 13 year old side kick.

Name the time and I'll be there.

Where is there and how long do you guys stay ?

[siberianhusky]

We'll be at lock 23, we usually run for a good length of time, 3-4 hours probably if boats don't break down!

[kendt]

Good stuff. I managed to rig up a y connector so should have lots of good running. I'll bring both my chargers as well just in case. Glad to hear your bringing a sidekick. Like to see the youngúns showing an interest.

[siberianhusky]

Cool I'll load up the canoe tonight and get everything ready to run! And some pruning clippers for the shore!
Cheers

[kendt]

Hopefully we'll get a break in the rain for the morning. Dont want the new boat getting wet

[siberianhusky]

Only supposed to be about a mm tomorrow morning. I just don't want to slide into the water again!
