RTR Class was strong last year. We had a lot of fun! I bought a Miss Vega to show my support for RTR. I won 1st place in stock that turned out real nice. This year RTR class turn out has been light. We are looking for a couple more boats so the RTR-Mod class can make a showing. Please come to...

FYI New photos available of my new A-Rigger project. I went with an OS .18 CVR -but I guess any hot .12 can be used if you want to be compliant with current max .129 displacement for A-Hydro class. Only some detail work needed on radio box covers and pushrod seals. I expect to be breaking-in...

Here is a link to my current project. https://www.intlwaters.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=159 It's my third-generation small-block rigger design. I'm still in the final stages of construction. Just need to bolt on the hardware and do the usual detail work to get it sea worthy! At my...

I finally got the good old protractor out and started mapping out my small block .12- .15 engines. Got lots of good info. Found out that the exhaust timming was WAY lower than what I've read on some of the rc boat literature that I've got. I was brushing up on some numbers and I recall John...

I have a need for some odds and ends from Octura. I need someone who has access to Octura inventory and is setup as a dealer: 3/16 square-end flex-cable (std lay) 24” 6mm smooth bore flex with a 3/16 square cable collet or insert Parts for a flex-ferule for 3/16 cable (including 3/16 stub)...

This is my much anticipated Firefighter 12 Rigger. It's going to run with MACS 2.5 pipe and Traxxas TRX 2.5 Engine, lightened Octura mount, spedmaster .21 hydro harware and a box full of props! Just have a few details that need to be address: Pipe mount Temporary Cowl on/off switch antenna...

http://www.horizonhobby.com/Explore/Articl...?ArticleID=1380 Check it out! Miss bud with a flex-shaft and a rubber dampened engine mount. Looks like they made some needed improvements and the list price is still the same. Can't wait to see the review in RCBM.

Got back from the pond yesterday tested a bunch of props on my .12 Nitro Trident Rigger... Well, I finally got to test the V937/3 and all I can say is wow this thing is fast! The engine was not even on the pipe due to the glass smooth water plus other factors. Launching was a little nerve...

Well, here we go again another weekend and more stuff gets tested. This week we go after the noise problem. I've been doing a bunch of testing with my MACS .10-.15 pipe and have grown very fond of it. It makes my boats scream -but is also the loudest pipe I own :( I can not afford to loose...

Well I finally bit the bullet and got some lifting props sized for .12 (Small Block) Rigger applications. All the props tested fit a 3/16 shaft. The first prop on the picture is the infamous V937 This prop is very popular with the fast-electric boat crowd and it is very compatible with even...

I've been trying to get to the IMPBA web site for a couple of days. Does anyone know what's the problem? Is there an alternate site? other than http://www.impba.com/ :angry:

Just a teaser shot of my new project. This is a WOF ( Wood Over Foam) Electric Rigger. This will be my test bed for a Mega Brushless AC16/15/3 and 8 AA IC3 batteries from Rayovak. These are probably some of the best "over the Walmart counter" batteries available. These cells are supposed to...
