All this talk about engines, hmmmmm! this is what I say. I'm not here to discourage anyone by limiting the boat to a mere few possibilities for engines. I say....Use what you want. I use a twelve and the boat was designed for it. But.... What the heck. One of the main purposes other than the response for making this rigger available is, getting you involved. If you want to run a .18, .15, .21, .12, Have at it. Use what you got. As for now keep the priority to getting yourself on the water. There is always time to get the engine of your dreams whenever your ready.
WADE! I figured out the anchor problem. I did this on a .45 about 5 years ago, and it work fine. Take aluminum pipe, find a fiberglass tube with the same outer diameter as the inner diameter of the aluminum pipe. Slide it into the pipe with epoxy and cut the pipe into 1" sections. Make the holes in the inner wall of the right sponson the same as the outer diameter of the aluminum pipe, roll the tubes in epoxy,push them into the holes, all the way. When the epoxy hardens use self tapping button head screws to hold the spar on.
I bet if you made some kind of jig with a band saw you could make about 150 of them in an hour, at a cost of about 5cents each.
I'm sorry that I didn't send you this as an email. I'm at work right now.
About the servo set up...
The bridges for the servos, or any kind of tray are not included in the kit. There are directions and a configuration for the RC box set up I use, but we determined that individual taste for different set ups are to various to limit the kit to one set up. You will have my set up to go by, but if you use standard size servos on their side blocked with wood and adhered with double sided tape, shoe goo, or whatever, you will have plenty of room to play with.
Hey Topfuel! What's the word? Is that a greeting, or an indication that you are waiting for a response. If it is the later, I wish that you would reiterate your questionl. I have been so busy these days, that I have lost track of a lot of things. Please forgive me for my misunderstanding.
