Hi Tom

Got the prototype together now. Just sealing the hull now with Clear & Simple and sanding it smooth. Hope to be ready when hardware arrives. Thanks for giving Jimmy the help with info on hardware. Going to try to get help setting up and testing hardware. Local "Veteran Racers" to get good analysis as I'm just a newby and not even sure if I can handle the hull yet.

I'm anxious to give this a test. Hope to have hull ready by the time it arrives. Had flywheel for engine machined for bigger belt and less weight and higher RPM's

 

[WallyRC]

Is that a big hand or just a small rudder!

Kick up design

This is a picture of what Hammer used on the prototype. I’m not sure what the dimensions are, but I am pretty sure that is used a 4mm shaft (about .150). Hammer would know for sure though.

Hey Jimmy,

All I can say is WOW!! .6oz including the padded envelope!! Way to go!

Do you have a pic of the strut? Also, have you narrowed down a price for a complete running hardware package? Like I said before, I will need something for my Hammerhead12 soon. ;D
