2nd video with set-up adjustments................ B)

I just looked at the video.........you are about 98% there.......add another 1-1/2" to the sponson width .....set the turnfin about 1/4" deeper and add

5 to 10 degrees more curl.......something I forgot....stiffen the turnfin with a doubler that ends

halfway inbetween the fin attaching points on the sponson and the water line....the fin cannot flex for consistent performance..

That should make the boat set-up virtually bulletproof......

That is a COOL running baby JAE rigger...can you tell me the specs on the brushless motor,speed control & lipo battery?

Thanks,

Joel

You can find it over on OSE web page in the mini pages this is going to be a big hit just think of 6 of them at one time on a shorter race course

Just for clarification.....lets give credit where credit is due.....

Jim Bob initially came up with the 16" JAE all on his own without any input whatsoever from the JAE team......

It just happened by coincidence that the JAE team and Zippkits were working on some mini JAE FE boats at the same time.....

After seeing Jim Bobs initial video,I contacted him to offer some set-up advise.

I saw he was experiencing some handling problems that the JAE team initially faced and subsequently resolved.......

Jim Bob reduced the JAE plans and built the 16" mini-boat......I knew from experience that a 100% translation of the reduced nitro plans was not the ultimate design for a bullet proof handling FE mini JAE boat.....

The plans that we are developing now will be specifically designed for FE application....areas like weight distribution,ride surfaces,turnfins and flotation.These areas will be specifically addressed and tested and will be included in the new mini JAE plans.....

Jim Bob has done a great job.......

I can just imagine seeing 25 of these boats,going 40+ mph,showing up at a race to run on a course with 150 foot straightaways ......talk about fun.....

Thats sweet, i got plans for a 16,17 and 19" jae shrunk down from the .12, not a whole lot of room when they get smaller, may have to put that set up in the 19"!!!!!!!
