Default RE: 1/2A Size Boat Club

Did some more work on the outrigger and discovered the purpose of that support for the front part with the German boat. With the reed engine the mount is so far away from the flywheel that the engine flex while starting, I'll have to make something similar for my "Hybrid" reedy. Not a problem with TD type which have a more solid arrangement for my next build! I made the radio box compartiment for the Rx ,rudder servo and bec( I'll use a small 2-Lipo in a bag up-front for radio power and just plug for on/off)the lid will just be a thin polycarbonate affair with tap since it won't need to be opened to access the battery. Kind of getting excited about that project and will start the building of more boats as soon as this one is complete, then just some warmer weather and a secluded pond with no irrate old lady around
