    Looks nice and goes well for a brushed motor.

    Gregg I think you will find that weedeater motors are generally 2 stroke as used in brush cutters etc one that comes to mind is the Zenoah 26cc if I was you Mike at 72" I would go the route of one single chain saw engine of around 50cc I used a 42cc Atco in a 60" MTB and that got along a treat like nicely on the plane with a home made prop.

    πŸ™„ Must be me beeing fick but can you explain what you have done to lower the ? "casing" pics would be good. What battery have you fitted as I have mine in bits at present ready to install a proper esc "Viper Marine 15". I was going to go the route of 8 AA NiMI 3000mah in original compartment so interested in what you have done as it looks great in the video. πŸ‘

    Brilliant model very well done far better than those cheap ones you buy from shops etc at least this looks real it looks very nicely put together it also has very good performance for a model getting on the plane with ease. What's the chance of you retailing them I would be very interested and I used to build real ones.

    Looks like a nice build sure is a model to be proud of and it sounds great too,"but" there has to be a but it would have been nice to see the whole boat operating on the water just as the guy operating it looks at it not just onboard footage.
