3.5 Tunnel Test Video

[David Moyle]

Hi all,

I just thought I would resurrect this thread with some recent footage of my latest tunnel hull design. It's currently running a K&B on the OS lower.

The weather was quite windy as you can tell by the sound and the chop on the water. I'm happy with the way the hull handles the rough (for a .21 tunnel). Speed seems to be pretty good for a K&B too.

The weight in this configuration is around 4.8 lb ready to run (minus fuel). No weight added for balance.

Here it is:

Looks like a winner Dave!!

It has a very nice ride attitude on such choppy water and also seems to be running quickly for a stock K&B.

Looking forward to seeing it run with the Mod engine back on it B) B)

Looking great Dave. Slicing through the chop with ease.

Your design, attention detail, dedication and meticulous approach to your builds is really paying off!

A real credit to you.

Thanks for the kind words guys! I'll post more information and footage as I get to complete more testing.
