hello there all!! This is a few pics of my boat it has had a hard life ive owed it for 3months an lost interest but now ive ad rethink an gonna throw a couple of hundred pounds at it to get it back in the water i do have already the radio gear it 64in long 18in wide an 8inch deep but do any know would it be ok to run a zenoah 26cc pum engine in and i do have a pick up for water behind the propeller and comes inside the boat, will that need a pump then go to the water jacket i dont know how theses engines work weather u pump the water round or wot!!!!???? please some1 helpme :((
-
The cooling systems on these boats work by forced induction. The pickup points into the flow and as the boat moves forward it scoops the water up inside the tubing. Im afraid i personally cant help with the engine bit someone will shout up :-))
-
cheers thanks for that advise just thought maybe it would be better with a pump wasnt sure!! 8)

nope no pump, just adds more weight slower boat etc. :}

a standerd servo for the throtle is fine but your udder needs to be a 1/4 scale rudder i use thease best value for monny and they do the job well
