    OSRACER, what time is the D6 race?

    Wow ;D....some stiff competition out there, and some stiff minded individuals (unfortunatly). It's a sad thing when someone takes their passion / hobby so seriously that they become narrow minded.....I don't know who this guy is Grimracer but, must I remind him that he too, used to be (if not...

    props 4 newbies

    The actual shaft is 11/64" or a few scratches short of 3/16"...is this normal? The plans didn't give me an actual size so I had to use a drill bit guage. The max. prop dia can go just shy of 2". The current prop is 1 3/4"..don't know the pitch.

    props 4 newbies

    I'm runnin' a Dynamite .12SP in a Laser Line ABC Hobby SPBP outboard unit. I've read a lot of postings that mention how much more performance you can get out of a beryllium / s.steel prop and I'm looking to get more speed. I have a couple of newbie Q's: 1. Will a metal prop make much diff. in...

    Big Problem...maybe small???

    PP, I feel your pain :-. I'm new to engine break-in's as well. I have a LaserLine tunnel hull with a Dynamite .12 as well....maybe it's just me but, they seem to be a picky engine to break in. First Q: Are you using an electric starter? I had HUGE issues getting the thing to start without it...

    AAHAAHHHH!!!! <engine problems>

    Re:AAHAAHHHH!!!! Being the cheap person I am I went to Menards and bought up a 10' roll of clear vinyl tubing for $1.39, add 40 zip-ties for $1.16 and made a nice exhaust pipe that extends up about 3+ inches. Works wonderfully!! The engine doesn't heat up the exhaust head really bad cause like...

    NAKED & WET

    Re:NAKED & WET Just to add more fuel for the conversation...what lbs. line does one use for the fishing retrieval system (FRS :P ), and does anyone know of an approx. distance you can get?? I'm just curious.... As for the radio issue I agree with Jeff K. Better to be safe than sorry. 'Cause...

    NAKED & WET

    Re:NAKED & WET Thanks everyone for the input. I would have never gotten the advice anywhere else (I'm kind of a loner here in central MN for R/C boating from what I can see). I just bought the LaserLine today ($203 w/tax, not bad) and am PUMPED to get it rolling out on the water. Now i just...

    NAKED & WET

    Re:NAKED & WET That's a pretty niffty way to get a boat, never would have thought of that one (that's why I asked). About the radio...what are acceptable frequencies? (I have an Airtronics Vanguard FM 4/6 channel at 72) If I'm the only one in a mile + radius is it still not a good idea to use...
