My opinion...the intent... 1.) Affordable 2.) Readily available specified motors 3.) Fun speeds and great competition 4.) Challenging: boat set-up and prop work required Spec and in the past (stock) are not entry level classes. To make one really sing requires considerable skill. The Spec...

Thanks to the FAST guys (Terry, Mike and Mikey) for another great time. Not terribly fond of the Michigan weather :rolleyes: but it was great to see the guys again. Gary, Wally, David, and Tyler from California! Some fast boats for sure! I'll be back in the fall to run the big water again...

Terry, If you want to see its potential to evaluate the design, regardless of cut-outs, nothing is stopping you from running it as a 'hydro' in Flint. If you want, I'll run it for ya. Steve

Terry, Terry , Terry... You kill me. Just bring the boat to Flint, I have a dremel that'll fix that thing right up! You've seen me in action thrashing in the pits before...gimme 10 minutes with that thing and it'll be legal :lol: ...and purty to boot! Seeya soon

Ron I'll take Item #3, can I pick it up next weekend in London from ya? Steve

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen. The boat in the video is 45" long; 4" inside tub width. I designed the boat specifically to carry 10S2P LiPo payload. This required a change in the design for a FE hull. The LiPo's I used were FlightPower 30C 4500's (mAh) packs. 2-4S packs, and 2-6S packs...

One of FE's colorful character's. I first met Ron at the Florida Namba FE Nats a few years ago and we last met at the Chris Harris Hydro Shootout last October in Sanford, Florida which he organized with Chris Harris. He loved FE thats for sure. He was outspoken on many issues he felt passionate...

Pierre, I agree completely with Jay. My 10S rigger was designed around the 30 series lehner motors. At 45" long and weighing 16lbs it is not a light weight boat. It does however handle heat race water extremely well. It does 80+ with the right prop on it. For heat racing high 70's is usually...

Last day to register for this race. So far we have 25 racers registered. We have B Mono, Tunnel and Sport 21, as well as Open Mono and Open Hydro. Doug Twaits Jr. will be coming with his record holding rigger (61.94 heat time with an 8S (30 Volts) Eagle SGX). We have racers coming from New...

Just over three more weeks for registrations gents. London has a great site for racing and a reminder that we have Open Mono and Open Hydro, B mono, Tunnel, Sport 21 offered as well. Some great racers will be attending and anyone who wants to learn more about fast electrics, this is the place...

Thank-you Mike for the pics, they help out tremendously... I already fubar'd the header location slighlty, but I think I can recover it. I'll post pics when I'm done. I just finished shooting the blue stripes and the cowl blue tonight. I will install the major graphics tomorrow, the fine white...

Thanks, I look forward to seeing them!

THANKS!!!!!

Looking for any photo's anyone might have for this hull. Specifically looking for any close up shots of the cowling. In the photo's I have there appears to be lettering before each flag. If anyone has built this hull, I wouldn't mind a pic ot two of your model. Thanks for any help. Steve

Mine come it at 16.5 lbs all up weight.

I'll try and answer as best I can: 1.) As far as the elctrical components are concerned, the hulls have to be made watertight. The motors are not out in the open, we use tape down hatches or subhatches depending upon the hull. The components can get wet, the motors can be flushed out with WD40...

As with any rigger design, the CG and balance point are very important. With LiPo batteries the size of the cells can dictate what you can do with any hull design (ie the avaialble space between the booms and behind the rear boom to the motor). FE motors can be quite large and heavy so this will...

I will post my set-up here with details of cost tomorrow. I will add though that Doug Twaits Jr. just set a heat racing record last weekend in Michigan with his Eagle SGX on 8S LiPo power at just shy of 62 seconds on the 1/6th mile oval. My hull will go into limited production this winter after...
