Chucky GT ONE

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

flat bottom strut on a mono.. would have never even tried it.. cool!

I cant tell you if its any diffrent than a round bottom one as its my first boat with a strut but it does work

I got it to run! it did 126 kph after crashing. broke the batterytray loose but its an easy fix so it will be out again soon!

Looks good Peter.
Glad you got it running correctly.

 

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

Thank you Liberty!
I thought it was just the batterytray that broke, turns out it lifted the inlay(so i guess my prep was bad) so its a full rebuild now

I started pulling out the old mount and some of the carbon lifted so its all coming out
It will be back stronger than before

 

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

I got the old inlay out, and everything sanded. I added a strip of 200g fiberglass in the keel and over the seams. I glassed the motormounts and added them after the inlay with 200g carbon


Im really pleased with the result so far, now to get the other hardpoints in

Nice job! It seems you used quite some epoxy this time. Please note that more epoxy doesn't necessarily make it stronger, but it does make your boat heavier. It's meant as a friendly advice . Oh, I even like your wall paper. We have exactly the same

 

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

yes! i went heavy to get the smooth finish so its easy to wipe off grease and water

 

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

New mounts are in, its a 2mm strip of carbon with brass inserts i printed a new and stronger batterytray and esc mounts aswell

 

[Peter Wibe Enevoldsen]

It is all back together, now to see if i cant get it over 80 mph

 

[Dirk Jan Cozy]

It looks awesome again! Good luck with the speed goal

I was doing some filler work on the wavefigther and figured id give the GT one the same treatment. It sure looks like it was needed i added about 2mm of filler along rear edge. Now to get it sanded and the trailing edge sharp again
