BH Hanson aluminum pipe with a water cooled coupler.

Merry Christmas to you as well! I've been thinking of building a gas scale also.

Whatcha building Don??

Regardless of hull type (epoxy or gel coated polyester), I always prep the hulls for paint using a grey Scotch-Brite pad, old school Tide detergent, and the hottest water you can tolerate. Scuff the hull rinsing the pad often and rinse the hull when finished. I use Plaster of Paris to fill the...

Leighton, pleasure to meet you! Hope to see you at future events. Regardless of the race sanctioning body.

Awesome race site !! More importantly, Mark, Kim, and Chris have set the bar for the NAMBA NATS venue. Great job!!

Awesome race site!!! More importantly, Mark, Kim, and Chris W have set the bar for future Nats venues.

Not sure if this will help. This is Wendell's first version. I have the new version now and its slightly different.

The Sky units are pretty nice. They are APP based. They won't transmit to your phone while testing but once you complete a run, bring the boat close to your phone to transmit the DATA. The Futaba units will transmit real time to the TX.

I've had several Y-6s. IMHO the PPW 7016 LL Bar Cut is the best prop for most monos. Even in good air I generally will run a 7016 LL 395 on the large engines. You may be able to use a 405 for the offshore course in Dallas but if it bogs on the tight left hand turns you'll have to prop down.

Less air less fuel, however heat is in the mixture equation.

I used to race nitro in District 7. You had to have a selection of high altitude props when racing in Lubbock, Amarillo, and Carlsbad. I would bet your seeing adjusted altitudes near 8000' on most summer days. Gas is not as bad but performance definitely suffers there. As Wally stated, download...

I built this boat in 2014 and it sat in my closet sealed and ready for paint until I got off my lazy butt and finished it last weekend. Pane 26cc, Tyndall turn fin, and a SFD by Brent Byer.

I still have a Lonestar Scat Cat Q 500 and a Prather .40 Little Toni new in the box.

Sig Kougar, Wow that brings back memories. I think that I built 5 (2 for myself) the others for club members in the early 80's.

Where/how to purchase the 400mm antenna?

Evercoat catalyzed metal glazing putty is superior to Bondo's version. I've had issues with non catalyzed putty blistering but I always use white epoxy primer.

Richard is still making table covers. The diamond plate material that I have on my covers is no longer available.

Richard Hallet, I'll text you the number.

Roger, I have been using Torco for several years and it's a very good fuel. I will add castor to a gallon for engine break-in. In my honest opinion the VP fuel is overpriced. Torco is only 14 miles from my home. If you need fuel for the Nats, I can pick up several gallons and bring it with.
