Gents.
I'm progressing the build of a 90 SprintCat with CMB 1.0 and just need a few points clarified if someone can help:
Floatation wise I can't see this thing staying afloat if it takes a dunk. In the past I've found 2 part foam mixes heavy, messy, not neat in apearance and likely to soak up water and fuel.
Normally on a mono I would seal off a bulkhead or two with light ply. However with this hulls layout I can't quite see how that would work.
Any suggestions?
The other matter is I'm not sure the best way to mount the radio box. I want to design something that can be removed easily, but is still rigidly mounted.
One idea was to sit the box on a few pillows of resin to mold it to the hull (ie lube the box so it comes away but leave an imprint). But other than elastic bands to hold it into place I'm out of ideas.
Any suggestions on that would also be greatly appreciated.
Final point. Was is the best epoxy resin you guys know of?
