    Default Carbon Fiber Brushless Edition

    Been messing around with a couple Impulse 26s the last few weeks. Upgrading them to brushless made these things a real blast. The design of the hull really shines at greater speeds than stock. However the plastic material of the hull began to be the weakest link when approaching 40mph as evident by a nice crack and splitting apart of the top and bottom of one of the hulls after running in the gulf with some rolling waves causing for some fun air time but hard landings. So it was time to gut them and apply some carbon fiber down the sides for strength and elsewhere just for looks. Hoping to run them (and get video) in the test pond tomorrow if the wifey doesn't go into labor before then. Here is a quick teaser shot....
