Welcome to the world of modeling and the challenge and satisfaction of building what you run........
This is what the JAE effort was and is all about.......lookin' good.....make sure you post photos of your completed boat... B)

Tks! Now I just started the painting process and for sure I'll keep posting boat infos.Looks good Fernando! The building fever has just begun. No greater pleasure than going fast with a boat that you have built. Have a couple of almost completed JAE 12 around. Let us know how it runs with the 21.

Something to consider......
I believe you may find you may be very overpowered with the A-A .21 in your .12 size JAE.......[Just to be on the safe side pay particular attention to floatation in your boat......]
The .12 size boom tubes will be stressed with a .21 in the boat.....The JAE design team has been using solid carbon graphite boom tubes in our boats for some time now....Our .12
prototypes are now running in the low 70's and accidents are hard on boom tubes....boats without sponsons do not float as well as boats with sponsons......
The 4OZ. fuel tank in the .12 boat will not produce much run time.....Just remember that while you are planning for its maiden run.....The lower the nitro content in your fuel the longer run times that will be produced......4 OZ's of 25% will produce about the same amount of run time as 7 OZ's of 65%... .with the smaller boat,25% fuel will produce plenty of performance....
In the past putting a .21 motor in a JAE .12 boat has been done with mixed success.......that is why we offered a .21 size boat kit...... B) .
The positive is thing is you are gaining experience building and learning the techniques of doing so........If you do find that your are over-powered you sure can slip that new motor into a .21 JAE
at very little cost...... and..........the best part of this plan is you may well get to build another JAE boat.... B)

ok Rod I didnt know axe rossi made a marine engine..thought they where cars and truck engines. Joe thowing in a Thunder tiger pro.21 in my old jae.12 rigger. he had that in mind since hobart races...Tks!
