Have a look at my avatar thats a Fritz hull very nice worth every penny
Bill Fritz does all kinds of scales but only when he has time so you might wait a year or so here is the last email i have for him [email protected] Mike
Its a great boat and runs good to i got 4th 2 years in a row at the impba nats and a double in concourse.Just dont touch the sponsons leave them plain and it will rock
yep the round nose hull is gone,if he ever redid it a 5 inch wide center would help stop the cramped area but it all still fits. Good luck what paint scheme you going to do?.....Mike
Who would up with the molds?? Is Bill now completely out of building scales?? :blink:
That's a shame.
Good news from Bill Fritz all he sold was the round nose and bent wing Circus molds. If anyone is interested in a Fritz hull email me directly and i will see what i can do. Bill said he is not sure if he is going to build any new molds,he thinks the scale class is stale right now. I told him we are alive and doing well and in need of more good hulls MikeyThat's a shame.
I used to have a pattern for the Fritz roundnose for making the sidewalls that turned that bottom opening into your radio box but can't find them. That is the only real way to go as that area is already so small you'll be hard pressed to fit any kind of seperate box it there.

My Phil Thomas round nose scale was just like that but I sold it to Chris Atterberry, I think Glenn owns it now? Maybe he can send a picture to help you out.I used to have a pattern for the Fritz roundnose for making the sidewalls that turned that bottom opening into your radio box but can't find them.

One word nitemare,i tried the under the front box even made a glass one. In the end i gave up and built a wood box around 14 inches long to go in the rear with the pipe along side. I used a carbon piece to help keep heat off the box. 2 12 ounch tanks under the front for fuel, the pocket tank thing was not enough fuel and i found a leak in one of the pockets.
