    DIY twin motor mono build 'G-Force'

    Wow! Not taking any chances on hull strength, right? Looking good. What is the deck made of? Carbon fibre sheet, or carbon fibre laminated ply?

    You live, you learn. Now it’s time to build a better, lighter and stronger Wild Thing. And Faster, of course. 😄

    Wild Thing 26" - Tuning help needed.

    Will do. I usually wear fishing boots, but that day was in the summer and it was much too hot. Besides, that part of the river is really shallow, the rudder will hit the bottom before the boat gets near me. But that is good advice nonetheless.

    That would make it worse. I raised the strut as far as it can go and it got better, (less airborne). Now, the options are: major surgery to the hull to allow the strut to go even higher, or a smaller prop at greater rpm. I will try the second option first, as it is the easier one.

    Wild Thing 26" - Tuning help needed.

    Thank you, Mr Finch. You are an inspiration to all of us boaters. Well, I understand a bigger boat is better to handle higher speeds, but I wanted to start small. And I think I still have not maxed out this one. I have seen boats this size doing 70kph confortably, so that is my goal. From what I...

    Wild Thing 26" - Tuning help needed.

    OK, I really need help here. The boat is fast, and can go faster. I have moved the ESC from the port side to the front of the motor. That changed the CG from 28 to 30. But, It still needs help. take a look at https://www.youtube.com/user/OliveiraX. T

    Wild Thing 26" - Tuning help needed.

    Hi All, I've built a 26" Wild Thing (scaled down from the 32" original John Finch design) and I am now testing it. First, I have to say that my experience with boats is very limited. I started with one of those chinese FT009 boats and I got instantly hooked. I modified it a bit, ( added an...
