Re:Project 'Hydro-therapy' ;D It was not a stock engine at all was a full race as you could build on the old 12mm crank engines, @ 176 degrees of exaust and a pipe at @8 1/4" and running at @ 25 to 26K. the little booger went in the mid to high 50's then it would stuff like the pond monster...

: :) Prather 215 for heatracing and when wanting go REALLY fast a Octura 1640 texas cut and spoon cupped. It has run on my sport 21 a time of 1:28.88 for a 6 lap 1 mile course. I missed the national record by 8/100ths of a second the last race of this year set up with the 1640 and a mac 21...

Re:Project 'Hydro-therapy' :o Now that little boat brings back some memories. It's a dumas Little rascal ! ! Built one @ 12 years ago and widened the front sponson supports and put in an K&B 21 front intake engine with exaust throttle and tuned pipe, Damm little water rocket would pull a...

;D Yes I am running one of brads titan rods in my Mac 21 and there quality is first rate, a little pricey at $75.00 but as they say speed is not cheep and in the case of his rods you DO get what you pay for. 8) Scott

: :) If I see the picture right that is the smallest three blade octura mades, X437/3 and is way too much prop for a .15 motor. You would be best to go to the stepped down 3/16 to 1/8 prop shaft and try a X432 or so . I run X437/3 props on .21 powered monos and they require a lot of torque to...

:'( Toy boats should be run as they come, don't fool with it, learn to drive / maintain / repair as so forth and when you feel comfortable buy a quality race worthy hull and engine. For the prop you should run a octura bronze prop but not a tuned pipe or any other hop up parts you will just...

: :) I have one radio and three receivers in all my gas boats, FM is the only way to go ! ! ! as a Three channel radio it sucks because the third channel that would be used as mixure control move so damm slow and with out a good feel for time virses movement you would have to watch the...

:P Small .12 size engines have so little rotating mass that with out a brass flywheel you will not be able to get a good launch off beach. Scott

All for fun and fun for some, But slow compaired to prop drive and requires lot's of power. Safe to operate compaired to exposed props and allows use in shallow waters ( creeks / frog ponds and such ) Bandit boats had built one that made it into RC boat modeler about 2/3 years ago. See the...

:'( O' what a tragity for sure, But as we all know sooner or latter @#$R% happens. In other words, Experience is what we get when we did not get what we wanted ! So keep that head held high, dont make that mistake again and keep on plugging ahead. Good luck ! Scott

O'please don't waist our time with this #$%%$#@@ If you are a gentleman / sportsman you would get off your high horse better that all attitude and give these guys a helping hand ! ! ! ;D That is not what this sport needs ( attitude ) Go play in the bathtub and ***** all you want. ;)...
