Well, I had a lot of fun last year with the faster/larger P Sport hydro class. Based on the success of that boat, I’m going to design and build another one this winter (with a few tweaks).
Most of the CAD work is done. The new version will inclde the following changes:
1. Drop nose profile for a meaner, more aggressive look.
2. Dedicated motor mount perch built into the frame for easy motor installation/removal via flat aluminum plate. (built by an FE guy…for an FE guy! Ha!)
3. Dedicated servo mount location.
4. Center location marks on all frames for easy construction.
5. Angled air bleed design to reduce pressure under the hull (air inlet smaller than air outlet = less pressure underneath). With speeds we were reaching last year, we need to start limiting the lift on these hulls (IMO). The boat seems to run and turn better with the weight at the CG rather than a ton of weight ‘up front’ to keep her down.
6. Reduced weight (reliefs added to all frame supports)
