If you have uploading "issues" - send the movie file to me (through wetransfer or some other file sending service) and I'll upload it to youtube early next week -> [email protected]

Cool. Nice to hear you're happy with your KEP's T3. Would be nice with a video also.

And a NR45 (for a friend)?

Hi Charles, I'll take two NR21 and one NR45 carbs. Let me know if they are available so I can transfer the money (paypal). /Niklas

Started to building my own FE-2(3)S this weekend.

Started building my own FE-4S this weekend.

I will use flex as this a fun boat for me. Much easier (i think) to keep water out from the tub also. In my boat I will keep the ski and tub open/connected so to speak (oversized flex hole in tub bottom) with a sealed transom on the ski. Just keeping it simple.

No need, I've got it now. Parts ordered.

Bob, what brass tube size do you use with that set-up?

Note, I think Diab no longer color code the Divinycell H-series. Think they are all "natural" colored now. So its best to call them with their id instead as in H60 (green) and H80 (grey/brown). (Note, Divinycell H-series is an cross-linked closed-cell pvc foam. Its superior to any versions of...

Thanks Tommy, So you use the teflon liner all the way down to the end of the flex tube and use that as the prop shaft bushing also?

What flex and tubing would you suggest for this one? - A .150" flex with 1/8" shaft? - Does Hughey have any flex that would work? - I aim at using a Traxxas Velineon 380 motor (1/8" shaft) - what coupler? - Prop suggestion for that (4000kv) on 3S?

Your welcome.

Hi Bob, yes I remember. Thats is basically why I did it and its a cool little rigger to play around with (I hope). /Niklas

Just knocked out an extra KEP's FE-2S Mini Freebie in similar size as the JAE Mini Sprint. No, I've not built one (yet), it's just drawn to the best specs I can think of. Have fun building! http://www.ne-stuff.net/2016/03/keps-fe-2s-freebie.html /Niklas KEPs-FE2S-Mini-Freebie-A2-594x420mm.pdf

Cool! Q: On the front tub sponson tube mount: is it open inside the nose of the tub or how doeas that work? /Niklas

Ive used the inserts in sponsons with H60 Divinycell and balsa cores. Not been an issue. In sponsons with eps foam etc I would use something else. The only sponsons ive had issues with have had some sort of eps (insulation) cores. The insert solution is "copied" from CMD as that is what they...

Usually no more then 2 layers, then my tape starts to "flex". If needed to go more then that I add a layer of plywood on top of the ski and apply more epoxy to get more height. If on sponsons, yes - just make a thicker/thinner ride-pad. But normally while r&d:ing a new boat etc, most...

This 3M VHB tape seems to be similar to the Stokvis one I use - its sold on a 5 yard roll though so it will last a lifetime... http://www.mcmaster.com/#76665a81/=11jc67h http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Adhesives/Tapes/Products/~/3M-VHB-Tape-4905?N=6105+3293241546&rt=rud /Niklas
