RE: New to RC Boating

Out of those two.
The KOS would be your better choice.

He is using the stock walbro that came on the bt-24 out of the V24 One design.
Haven't a clue as to what size it is. I'm using an 813 on my mild mod Zenoah & love it!

RE: A buddies disappointment - What $3000 does not get you

Very sad indeed. That's just wrong on so many levels.

Thank you.
No. none at this point. My exit angle doesn't seem to be to drastic.

RE: Top Flite balncer help !!!

Even the slightest bend will create a false "heavy spot".
Rotate the blade on the shaft & see if the heavy spot moves.

RE: 4PK questions.

A slight radius bend is OK. Smooth arc.
Just don't kink it (sharp 90 deg. bend)

As far as your batteries are concerned Ni-MH is fine.
That is what the transmitter comes with.

RE: Rio 51 shaft problem

Just curious. If it's a square drive, wouldn't the flex shaft just silde in the drive if it were to shorten?

RE: WTC Stainless Steel Header

Bonzi uses Aluminum.

I broke One & I used http://www.alumiweld.com/to put a fillet in the next one to reinforce it.
I still have to test it.

RE: New GAS Boats from Venom!!

Canadian LoCo. Can you tell me how thick the stringers are & is it just me, or do the stringers stop just past the motor?

Oh.. forgot to ask. Are the stringers glassed on both sides?

RE: New GAS Boats from Venom!!

Being it's a Zenoah clone, I'm sure it is using a Walbro carb.
That would mean, yes. You can choke it off to shut it down.
You can do that with just about any carb.
