    Default Short course titles.

    A few pics from our clubs 2 day event.

    3 of us charging the start line at full noise.
    A few of you may recognise the 'Flame whiplash being driven by Mark Warren in lane 1.
    Peter Davidson is driving my old ML Boatworks GP400 in lane 2.
    I am driving the pink Miss Penrite (ML Boatworks 1/10th Miss Renault kit) in lane 3.
    And that's the order in which they finished too.

    My restricted rigger leading the way in a heat.
    Trevor in the boat behind me won the day, & I ended up 3rd. Some great racing.

    Some of those look like they might be great photos, shame they are so small.

    Good show. I run an Ariane 2 in our 6 cell Q class. Some day we should compare power and setup.

    Hey, did I ever mention how much we enjoyed Austrailia? Sydney, Alice Springs, Uluru, Cairns, Sidney.

    It is unfortunate Paul.
    I lifted them from our facebook site. It seems when they were uploaded there they were automatically cropped.

    I'm glad you had a good time down here Zooma.
    In my Ariane 2 there is an old TP 4060 1600kv motor, Seaking 180, & a semi de tongued X447/3.

    Those boats are purdy !

    Out of curiosity could you explain in general terms what the classes are e.g. EA , EB , Restricted Sport Hydro ?

    Thanks Paul

    No worries.

    Our EA classes are 4s. For example our EA Mono would be very similar to your P Mono.
    Our EB classes are 6s. For Example our EB mono would be similar to your Q Mono.
    Same for cats, sports hydro & riggers etc.

    Our restricted class is where all boats are restricted to the Aquacraft or Proboat 1500kv 6 pole motors & their 45A ESC's.

    Bear in mind all classes can only run 1P lipo setups. Limited to a weight of 650 grams for 4s, & 950 grams for 6s.
    So that means mainly 5800 - 6200mah 50c packs, depending on the manufacturer.
