I decided in the fall I was going to build two Hydromites over the winter. I built one years back freehand. it turned out good but it never was finished. So here I am...

This time around I found out about Lazer Works that has "short kits" of the hydromite. Basically the woods precut except the larger sheets of square balsa/ply. Eddy got me my order in record time. http://lazer-works.com/list.html and its under $22 for the kit, well worth the $.

The power source is the same as Dr Jets small stuff. The 3000 KV small outrunner and the 30A Mystery ESC. I dont have a battery pack or rx picked out yet...

Heres some build pics:


This is the wood thats been laser cut.


Wood trimmed and sanded smooth on the edges:


The start of the skinning. Beware you need 1 right and 1 left!!!!


Next step, the small sponson former:


Small size issue. The slots not big enough for the thickness of the material. You need to sand towards the center. I used a needle file and was done quickly.


Assembled:
