Default RE: New project boat

I tried something different for me in doing the water pickups. I mounted them through the bottom of the hull using some old scraps of brass tubing that I angled slightly with a dremel. I then drilled holes on either side of the servo just large enough for the tubing to slide into and shoe goo'd them into place. I then ran silicon tubing from the pickups to the esc's and then towards the left back to a tee. I brought both lines together to one exhaust hole out the back. Will have to see if this works or not. I also mounted the rx on the inside left wall ahead of the esc on that side. Ran the wires and did a radio test and everything worked. Just have to take it out and see how she runs. I'll get video of it too.
