    Thanks Ray..

    I think.. "think" the AquaCraft website will be updated in the next day or so. I know they are building the last details on the site now.

    All the hardware can be bought just like you buy your hardware now.. rudder asse.. got it.. just a blade.. got it.. strut asse.. got it... plates asse.. fins.. got it. Pricing on those goods will be not to bad eather!

    Nice and Beefy! Just the way I like it.

    I bent a Speedmaster .21 rudder mount on my P-mono and they make that out of .125" Aluminum. This looks like 4mm or 5mm thick; very nice!

    Let me know when those turn fins are available.

    Nice looking boat... P Mono racer right outta the box ? I'm anxious to see what you decided to power it with. It would be nice to see something different in the motor dept from AQ.

    I'd imagine so, due to the name. It should be interesting seeing this one up against the Impulse 31. Love that hardware!

    The amount of value Mike and AQ keeps packing into these new boats just keeps getting better and better.

    I'd really love to build my own boat one of these years, but I have a self imposed limit of one new boat per year and AQ just keeps churning out great new boats year after year. SV27, UL-1, VS1 brushless, Motley Crew...and now this - I guess I know which boat is next. Building my own may have to have to wait for another year.

    Traxxas once came out with a new hull called the Revolt, BUT had to change the name to Spartan for some odd reason.

    Sorry about that. I think Revolt was one of the names somebody suggested on their site

    I had a chance to race one of these hulls in our April 29th Club race... I raced it in both P-Limited Offshore (4 min) and P-Limited Mono (6 Lap Sprint) just by making a prop and battery change. This hull has HUGE potential. My hull has the 1800Kv motor, and I am 99.9% sure the production boat will come the same way.

    While I have A LOT more tuning to do and props to test, the 1800Kv is the ticket in this thing! So far it’s handled any prop I have thrown at it in the 45mm range without any heat what so ever.

    Racing at our club race, the boat wasn’t the fastest in the heats, but this boat turns so well out of the box, that I was able to have good finishes with a couple of heat wins by making the other boats pass me on the outside. Lots of fun, I can’t wait to get some more testing/tuning and some eagle tree data.

    Here are a few pictures that I have. None are that great, but here you go…

    Sorry guys... I can't seem to load pictures from work all of a sudden. The picture manager pops up but nothing showing the box.. I will keep trying.

    Later,
    Mike

    Simple, clean and with spacious access. It gets better with every picture.

    One small concern, the stuffing tube looks unsupported somewhat? Supported underneath most likely?

    Ray.. Understand.. The Stuffing tube is quite short.. I did not make a support for it.. Having said this for anybody concerned let me know. And, its leaves the door open for Jan at Kintec (or other) to make a part for it! Lol

    Thanks again for liken' the layout.. I have a ton of work into this boat and our hopes is that all who join in realy enjoy it!

    If you say it is no concern I will go with you on that. I will trust you on this one.

    I have done a 29" mono the same way with no problems, still runs fine.

    I'm just anal on details sometimes. Bad habit.

    Its always good to keep asking stuff like that. The more I think I know about this stuff the more I realize how little I know!

    Thanks
