RE: NQD Hydro
[:@] I`m back!!
Well now we have a 21double car motor, car 13 turn escape, Carson rudder, Carson drive shaft and 50m.m. prop. Home made turn fin and cold water pick up.
Test drive in home pool yesterday; Cavitates off the mark {Only half of the prop in the water} Then won`t increase speed. I spat the dummy and pulled full throttle then hand LAUNCHED the tub into the water!!! Guess what????
The bloody thing jumped straight up onto the plane and took off!!!! Only just managed to pull it up b4 destroying itself into the far end of the pool! So now the first chance I get it`s down to the foreshore and hand LAUNCH it into the lake with fingers and toes crossed!!!![>:]
I will take some shots of the fun to show all who are interested.
p.s. Total cost of parts so far=
MOTOR=$24
RUDDER=$6
DRIVE SHAFT=$12
All other parts I already had. Carson parts are cheap and appear to be of good quality,eg; drive shaft has duel ball bearings and seal!!! 2 good!!
