Hi guys, this is what i will use for the steerable system, usually used in model airplanes, it's like pull-pull. I'm going to mount one 25 kg servo and if id doesn't works, then will mount 2 of them. If someone has mounted a steerable wire system, i will be grateful if let some advice or opinion, thanks.
Regards

RE: Apache 84
 

This is the push-pull system ready for the first test. I know that is not so common to see this kind of system on a boat, but i think is the best solution steering these drives by wire.

Hi Mario
very nice build, I have a friend who is building a 80" Super Hawaii and want some dash instruments can you tell me where you got yours from please.

Bob.

RE: Apache 84
 

Specialk1, thanks and maybe some day we could see this boat running on your waters...
Bob, thats a very beautiful boat, tell your friend to put some pics. Well, the dash instruments i'm using in this apache came from another build i'm doing, an italian Riva Acquarama runaboat, here is the boat webpage http://www.amatimodel.com/index.php?...7&amp;Itemid=6 you can drop them a message asking for "Strumentazione di bordo" of Riva acquarama, then if you have problems, i can try to find it here for you. The other parts, like steering wheel, throttles etc. you can find it here http://stores.ebay.it/Balu-Racing-Speedparts but you have to check out every day until he replace all the stuff he has for sale, here you will find very interesting object and accessories, he's German but he also speak english.
I hope I've helped.
