Anyone familiar with ?

[Andy Greene]

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with the Chinese? Japanese? splash Mono -

Top deck looks like the new Solex with the cowl-

Bottom looks like a Seaducer ?

Delta Force maybe ???

Will get some pics as soon as I get my camera back.

Anyway its- 46 inches, has an OS .65 - all brand new setup .

Wondering if anyone has played with one or not ?

Where to start up prop ?

Loose the dual rudder setup and go single stand-off ?

Stinger instead of strut ?

I already have a Seaducer to heat race in C-Mono, but this came to me right , so I might as well have fun with it.

Thanks TMonk

- will shoot him a pm .

Will have pics up here in a few-

Already conceded to the fact the twin rudder/strut combo has to go/ to much slop and I dont like the stand-off, in place Im planning on using a stinger and long stand off rudder with water pick up, oh yeah, and a CMB 90

Jerry's gonna beat me with an old oak branch

Easy fella's -

IT WAS FREE ,

But I guess you woulda turned it down right - not being American made and all

 

[RodneyPierce]

boat looks OK to me!!

 

[moparbarn]

the top does have a delta force look to it.........for a pond basher & something to let the kid learn on, run the dog poo out of it !!!! saves the race boats some wear & tear .

Thanks Robin, Im thinking the same thing.

Fuel it- break in the motor bench style and go have fun. Takes play time off the race hulls and can tweak it from there.

Still not real sure about the dual rudder deal though ???

And the question still is- has anyone run one and what props work ??

Where to you buy them from could help out the nitro boating increase numbers.

Hi Andy

Hello folks. I've just joined the forum and this topic caught my eye.

This hull reminds me of the Delta Force and has similar lines from what I can see to the Prestwich Lynx that I currently run.

I'll attempt to upload a couple of pics:

As to what it runs like, here is a short clip of two of them running together:



Cheers

First off- Welcome Craig

Thanks for sharing, thats the boat. Now I just need some prop ideas for running a nitro motor in one ?

Cheers Andy.

Unfortunately I can't advise on the props with mine being gas powered.

Hopefully others will.

And he went with the OS 65 VRM . package .........

Thanks for steering me in the right place Craig,

Are you running the 4 inch or 5 inch standoff rudder bracket on yours ???

Cheers.

Hi Andy

I am running the 4 inch standoff bracket. Rudder blade length measuring the tapered section is 4.5 inches.

Nice boat. I agree with buy American, but what is made here anymore? Check your radios, engines etc. Too bad we can't supply goods at a reasonable cost.

 

[carlnoki]

you can get those hulls through offshore electrics.

It is the Delta Force Sniper 45" hull.

5" rails.
