Default rigged insanity 2.1

Hey. I got some more shots. I have been building the tub today.
I just have to put done some spar varnish on the hull and the tub is done, next to tackle the sponsons.
I have a old crappy fieago XL can i use for mock up. and 2s2p or 4s1p which every way you have it. and a hydra 240 down the side of it. with your full size MG hi torque servo.

layed a small bit of carbon fiber and kevlar where the stuffing tube exists
the tub is 26,5/8th by 4 inches wide ( add the thickness of the skin) with a hull height of 2.4 inches
you can fit a XL can under there with out a bubble. But some people who runs a NEU 1521 in there with a WJ will need a bubble. So i think it will have a vacuum formed bubble.
and i haven't glued the front part of the deck on yet. so you can see just how far up the cells can go !! you CG will be very eazy to find with his hull, lots of configuration.

LOL, calling it crappy because its old and doesn't work,
Today i am going to take a stab at doing these sponsons. I think i have a way to do it, But i'm not to sure if i can complete it today. we will see.
oh and yes the sponons are the same but the right side has a doubler because of the turn fin spar.

After that BB you can send me the NEU, esc I'll supply the lipo an taylor can fedex me a kit.

Ahh well maybe not, but all seriousness it looks great, an I will definetly get one ordered when available, course I should finish my other projects first.

I love it, the graphics look great too. I do have one question though. Are you sponsored by Cadi or just a big fan?

Dude,
Where are you finding liquid water up there? I calculate you are at least 350 - 400 miles north of where I am. My favorite winter water is frozen solid. Where are you running, the runoff from a power plant?
