nitro only


i got a TC31 http://www.proboatmodels.com/Product...ProdID=PRB2750

i actually have taken out the stock .32 (tons of air leaks) and am looking for a new engine, probably an axial .28 for it but it has been put on the back burner while i spend all my money or cars

if you want i would sell my boat, has everything except engine, the hull has bben reinforced by me with fiberglass (yes i know fiberglass) has several props and pratically a full gallon of gas (the stock motor was an air leak king and only got about half way thru break in before i took it out and threw the engine across the concrete, but it has everything else includding pipe and all mounting gear

an axial .28 will litterally drop in the boat, all you do is cut the pilot shaft part of the crank and mount the prop coupler in it

the stock radio has never even been used.

but i will sell the boat for $100 with stock radio or $150 with the Futab 3PM FM in it

no need for water cooling head, there is airducts in the top that permit more then enough air flow for the head

you dont always need a water cooling head, the main reason is because the water is right there and the tops of most hulls are pretty low, but mine is a catamarna so a stock cooling head would have 2 ducts on each side feeding it air off of the lake or pond, which is cooler air then on ground.

here are some pics with the axial in the boat ( i didnt even have to cut the crank on this one to get the coupler to work, it was easy
