Well, I picked up a new Hornet tunnel from a fellow Intlwaters member, and I am starting my FE build of it. I must say, these boats are nothing but quality. The build of the boat itself is awesome. I cannot wait to get this one out on the water. Here is the build. Its the 34" Hornet usually used for 7.5cc mod, or 11cc stock nitro engines. This hull is getting set up for 4s2p, running a lawless 7.5 lower unit, Medusa 36-70-2000kv V2 motor (R.I.P. Medusa, your motors will be missed), a Seaking 180a Marine ESC, etc. Kris Flynn is cutting me some flex cables to fit the layout as we speak. So far, I have cut out the flooring, layed a layer of carbon out, and cut out the sides of the radio box. The radio box is going to be interesting, as I am doing the sides in 1/32" plywood, with a layer of carbon fiber on the outside wall to give it rigidity. The reason for this, is I needed a very thin radio box to help fit my 5000mah 30c 4 cell Zippy packs and anything much wider would end up cutting it very close. Here are some pics!
