Like I said I havnt dialed it in yet plus my motor came out of LHS riggerThe motor was fully modded by the owners builder. The boat apperntly calls for a 60 size motor though. Mine is a lot of motor for the boat but I never go by what they say to use I dont like tug boats. They say put .12 Im stuffin a .18 or .21 in it . The reason I didnt put an 80 or 90 in the dumas is because I got a good deal on the motor and my LHS owner assured me that the boat would scream. Dave

Flabum,
Where can I get the plans, I think Im going to go ahead and purchase the plans and get supplies ready so when im done with my cobra i can start.

birel19

Humm....just wondering, could I make the vee deeper, and freeboard higher on that Woody so it will be better in the rough. Love the line of woody but love the high freeboard deep vee of the Dumas[sm=50_50.gif]. I have to take a minute and think.[sm=confused.gif]

I think that looks close to the WT plan floating around. Birel take a look at the thread I just started on Wild thing run I have a plan for a 26in. version you could blow it up to any size you want or take I look at my thread HPI/Nova Rossi .12 If you want to see what the boat looks like . You can modify the boat any way you want if you have an imagination. I changed the deck a bit gave it a nice radious I think it makes it look mean and nasty just sitting still.

I dont trust myself to size up a plan just yet, dont have enough experience yet. Your WT looks great though, love the lines. Hope you dont paint it!!!

Flabum

I think I remember someone here blowing up those plans.....

unclecrash

I thought it was you or Martno

If you want to build a small boat 26in save some cheese I can send you this plan I have for it. Its pleanty fast. I even ran a bit of chop over it got a bit lite in the front but ate it up. The way I have iit set up not even tried to fly away and it will turn on a dime at full throttle.

Flabum

He's gonna have 7 boats by the time we are done with him

birel19

I know, probably 15... I dont think I can go that small, my pond (the ocean or a lake usually) is consistently really choppy. I was thinking from 30-45 inches at most, gas or nitro, high freeboard, deep vee.

cwaterhunter

ho does anyone have the plans for the woody thay could sent me? i have a 35 cc motor just waiting for a home... thanks

unclecrash

You could do Like Mike Toyota Truckin Tape the tiled plan together and take it to a copier shop and have it blown up I was surprized how good Mikes Tiled plans looked after he had them done.

Unclecrash,
When I printed out the plans you sent me I dont think they printed to full size (the bottom is only like 10 inches), Is there a setting I can use so they print full size and I can tape the pieces together? What kind of wood did you use or recommend? Post some pics of your finished boat!!! I saw it in the forum and it running, looks great!!!

birel19

Could I use this hardware and turn well both ways? In the build forum you guys mentioned the one farther down the page on the finedesighnrc.com site. Heres the link to the pic- http://finedesignrc.com/images/21egsrahardware.gif
Heres to the page I got it from- http://finedesignrc.com/hardware.asp

One more thing, Should I use the dynamite or OS .15 engine, Im starting to like it with its 100-13 dollar price tag!!

unclecrash

When did I send you the plans dont remember? If I did send them it might not be the tiled plan. That sounds like the one that needs to be scaled up my printer wouldnt do it either.

birel19

Is your name ron, thats who the e-mails from, how would I scale up the plans? and would the os .15 engine from tower work well in the wild thing .15?

unclecrash

No Im Dave You can try but Im not good at messing with that. Up in the corner left click on file then page set up you might be able to change the scale but you will just have to mess around with the size. I will send the one I got .

birel19

Thanks, sorry about the mix up on names, would the hardware I posted earlier work well with the boat or would you recommend something different?

unclecrash

I think so what size were you going with. Send me your email Ill send you the tiled version

birel19

My email is [email protected] , thanks for the help

unclecrash

I just sent you the plans make sure if you are going to have it blown up you tape it neat and dont wrinkle it up. Also use one piece of tape all the way across the plan for each tape joint because they have to send it through there scanner. Dave

Flabum

Hi Birel,
You should be able to put those plans I gave you onto a CD and take them to a printer/copier service and they should be able to print them out full size.

Ron

unclecrash

I tryed to do that with a set one of the guys sent me and The copier shop told me it was going to cost me about fourty bucks that he had to rework them and crop every drawing. It could have been a print that someone or too many people modified before they got to me. Matter of fact 2 different shops told me this so I know they wernt just tryin to drain my pocket.

birel19

I got them printed full scale, just need to cut them up and patch them up a bit with blank sheets of paper.

unclecrash

So you building her 26in.?
