Hi How often do you take your engines apart? Not completly, but just carburator and head! I find myself, having to do it every time I have been boating. Not a biggi, but there might be a better way of doing things, than I have been doing them. Especially my needle (assembly) gets rusty if I...

Straight fuel?? Is that Methanol and oil but no nitro? I'm guessing it is.. That's the stuff, the guys from Sweden, has been using the past few years. They modify their engines to run without nitro(don't know how!)and it seems to work out just fine. On a swedish forum, I once saw, they had...

I think I have that model ;) Mine is just from Graupner/JR and is called xs6 race.. It's a nice radio, good range, nice feel, and it has all the features I can think of for rc-boating.. And it is light weight too. The 3'rd channel is divided into 150 small "steps" in each direction. I...

What would have been a perfect Sunday, turned bad :'( Perfect water, no wind. My brother and I had set up a nice circut. Everything were ready, so were we.. We started my brothers .100 Sprintcat. He took it out todo a few warm up laps. In the meantime I stood talking to some old guy, who...

Infact Locktight 648(red) holds up just fine ;) Just make sure your flex and endshaft are nice and clean.. Rince with alcohol, apply locktight and put the parts together. Let it dry for 24 hours. Now you have a nealy unbreakeble joint. And the good part! If/when your flex gets old and out...

Very smart... Have to try that out! Hate I diden't come up with such a simble, but effective way to install the tube ;) Morten

Offcause MikeP has a good point. And I try to do the same, but as insurence I like to throw in a couple of tampons. I have found a water absorbant mineral(salt). this I put in a small package made of a stocking. This absorbs any water vapor in the box-air. Morten

That would be Denmark. The prices are good this month only :-* thereafter, there will be a 25% increase in price > :( You guys have got to remember the shipping cost to the US. Moreover the only way this can be done! You have to transfer the funds to my account in Denmark. When I recieve...

Oh Have to say that the prices follows the Euro/ Dollar development. :'(

Hi boys and girls ;) I just got my hands on the CMB lineup. The prices are very respectable. Say a .21 greenhead will cost you no more than 160$ 8) And nitro pipe and header is just another 35$ 8) I don't know what this engine normally goes for, in the us. But this is very cheap overhere...

I'm thinking buggy engine with clutchbell and spur, to get the RPM right. Cooling should not be problem ;) I guess you guys are more racers than tras and bashers. Me beeing just me, I think I would have lot of fun throwing the boat around a tight course. ;D

Have any of you guys ever made a sprintboat? Not with a big gas engine but with one or two .21 nitro engines. The jet drive makes it easy, for the engine, to turn the impreller.(i'm told) Therefore it should be possible to use nitro engines, making the hull smaller/lighter and thus faster...

Hi Tom Could you send the boat to Denmark? I have an OS .15 buggy engine that might fit the tub. (have to say that it has the same size as .21) Don't know if this will effect the actual boat size : :) Mail me a price!! Morten
