True enough. Just keep in mind that medical grade CA is sterile and hobby grade is neither sterile or as pure, it is usually diluted a bit. But still, in an emergency, CA is great stuff!! But even still it is a short term fix. If the wound is too large for a butterfly bandage then it likely...

I ain't no Amigo, but I'm making plans as well, so add one more SOCAL boy into the mix!! FE and gas, should be a hoot!! Got the P mono nearly done and the P Spec Hydro is in the mill now as well. Now I just wish there was a tele-transport device to get me there. I've made the dirve a half a...

It's a very fast hull. My gas version is very quick and handles an offshore course nicely as well. Here's a video from a race last year. This was on a 1/8th mile course. Very small pond.

HSP79766 ANT BOAT ONLY 400MM $12.13 Must be ordered through the service center or your LHS can order it. Tower does not carry or list the antenna. Keep in mind that as Don said, this is simply a longer coaxial cable on this antenna. The antenna itself is the same length. This part allows you to...

Futaba FASST radios have two transmission modes. PPM and HRS. In PPM mode you can use either/or digital/analog servos. In HRS mode you MUST use all digital servos. The FASST radios have proven to be very robust in boats. I use both the single antenna 603FF and the dual antenna (1 external, 1...

The antenna is short because it is related to the wavelength of the frequency that is being used. Typically they are 1/4 wave(length) antennas so the 75 MHz are about a meter (39") and the 2.4 GHz are about 1.25 inches. On the FASST radios the only part that is actually the antenna is the bare...

Tin the ends of the wire first, then melt solder into the end of the plug. Stick the wire in, heat until the wire is fully seated in the plug and let it cool.

44 inch Delta Force mono called a "Sniper" http://www.deltaforce-hk.com/sniper44.html Mine is run on 10S2P with a Lehner 3080/8 (656 Kv) and a Schulze 40.160 controller. All Speedmaster hardware. All up weight of between 18 and 20 pounds depending on packs (10,000 or 12,000 mAh total on...

All FAI fuels are 0% nitromethane. At least in airplanes. I'll grant that I do not know if that extends to boats.

Well, I sent you a personal reply on that issue because your personal attack had nothing to do with the subject. But if you insist, here is a public response. And as far as intestinal fortitude goes, it would be nice if maybe the folks who feel the need to talk behind people's back like little...

Here's a set up of mine. Neu 1521/1.5D - 1,900 Kv - 14.8 volt nominal - 4 pole rotor - 12 slot stator - Rm (ohms) = 0.005 Also calculate a 1,020 Kv motor @ 37 volts nominal

Wow, so you have the knowledge to suspend the laws of physics?? Amazing. Zero resistance?? How are you super cooling the circuit? Can you whip me up a perpetual motion machine too??

Bill and others, it is clear you have your minds made up and will do what you want to regardless of the feedback you get from the FE community you are so eager to regulate, so it is fruitless to keep this discussion going. Given your intense dedication to the ultimate in safety I am certain you...

People keep missing my point, which is, the perception of the risk is not what you think it is and the current controls have proven adequate to address those risks. If we simply enhance and improve the hazard communication process the need for an engineered solution is eliminated. Fresh eyes...

Yep, that's the reason. The guys that are actually involved are clueless and are not interested in safety. That's why it is so important that people that are not active in the area of interest save us from our ignorance. Unbelievable.

See, this is the heart of the issue. Having never seen it people think that the proposed solution is a good one. In fact, I agree with the one you posted!! Now answer me this, what does the retrieve boat guy do when he comes up to a flipped boat where the motor is running?? He still has to pull...

Me three :P

Hence my second point that a loss of power failsafe should also be used. I use one. My radio handles loss of RF with its internal failsafe (and also low voltage) and I have a small loss of power failsafe that kills the engine if the receiver ever loses power completely. I also use coreless...

I saw this too. First impression is that it has little bearing on the FE issue. It was a car that ran wild when he shut off the receiver power. Somehow the ESC went wild at that point, Joe dropped the car into his lap and it literally "burned rubber" on his leg. OUCH!!! Other than pointing out...

Now that FE boats will be rendered 100% safe as long as the retrieve boat operators have been trained how to remove the boat with a running motor from the water, where to look for the plug, how to hold the boat safely while pulling the plug and stowing the plug so it can be returned to the...
