Status: offline 		The servos are all installed and seem good, will post pictures, but the motor I got from Hobby King is no good.  Bad bearings and loose magnets.  I  will have to work it out with them.  In the meanwhile, I ordered a different motor from a different vendor, waiting for it to arrive.  Thanks for your patience.

What are the specs for those floats (length, nose to step and the weight they were designed to hold)?

Also, what structure is just under the flat top of the floats? Are you free to put mounts along the length of the top of the floats or only where the mounts are on that beaver?

Thanks,
