    Default Renewed 1/10 Miss Cadillac Shovel

    Before Xmas last year I picked up this old wood built shovelnose hydro off of DJ(olwarbirds). It was 'in the works' of getting watercooled gear in it as it was an old brushed setup before. So I have been tinkering with it as of late and finally it is ready for the lady to toss in the lake. She likes the old school wood scale boats so this is hers . I painted up a driver, made a new brass steering wheel, and installed an SV 27 rudder that I cleaned up. So power is a 1800 kv UL-1 motor and a 60 amp ESC to match,
    Enjoy the pics:

    I added some veneer CF to the battery bay floor, also a piece with Velcro that covers the battery bay with a pull handle,




    and added watercooling via a in hull pickup off the sponson.
    Oh, and I also switched the turn fin for doing right hand corners as that is what we do at the course and we can run it with my Miss Bud.

    Thanks guys, I need to hit the sponson with paint but it is sealed. She is a great looking vintage hull.
