Twin Final Checklist

[Beau Parsons]

After months of preparation I am finally ready to drop my Twin RoadRunner rigger with CMB 91 VAC's in the water this weekend, I feel I am forgetting to do something, Radio checks out using 2 receivers Futaba 2.4 Gig, servos work great, 2 fresh batteries, 2 on/off switches, props are beautifully S/B, tanks have been checked for leakage, needles have been flowed properly, pipe length is set to proper altitude. If anyone has any help in maybe pointing out any helpful hints or something I might have overlooked, I would glady use your input or responses here.

Thanks all

Beau Parsons

make sure you locktite everything and put tie wraps on all water lines, have at least a 1/4 gap between your drive dog and rear of strut, index both props equally for the

power stroke, make sure your fuel tanks are padded in some way or use silicone as my friend Don F taught me...Now just hold on and be ready for the

ultimate power rush

Grease the shafts or fill the tanks for the oiler. I run though this every time I go run my boats. Ryon

Beau,

I double filter my fuel as well, but my twin is the only boat that I run filters on. I highly recommend it.....

What needles are you running?

I do the same and I still find crap in the Inline filter.

What they said ..filters before the needles and blow/flush them with every tankfull . Make sure tanks are strapped in as well .

Have fun with the ultimate toy boat rush !!

I really like the Du-bro with the mounted line plug.

The day got late and I was completely burned out form the sun exposure, so I was not able to test her yet. I am planning on getting out in the next few weeks to get here wet. I will let you know how see runs. I have been waiting for it to cool down here it has been hot as hell. ready for some fall weather!
