What an angry bee swarm you've got there Glenn.... Still alive and kicking up north I gather. Look forward to more and to getting a boat on the water here.

Hi there Mart,

Dizziness caused from having to do several shorter laps inside the course to try and move the wildlife before I could go around (or through!) the buouys.

Oh yes, lots of tinkering goiing on up our way, mainly by me. I do the big bore Zens like the one in the video and they go really well with little effort, the beauty being they will run a large variety of props and are not too pipe sensitive - they are VERY thirsty though, and need so much air I have had to rethink more than one models venitlation. Worth it though.

But I do still like the J&G motors, they are the much more finesse option but when you get one running nicely they are a dream.

Someone ran an Arrow on it's maiden voyage last Sunday. Went pretty well.

Yep,

we are all still well and kicking up here, or down here relative to you in HSB. Hope that you are well.

The motor is a bit buzzy, it is turning the 6719/3 in the Whiplashe to 19000 so it really needs a little more prop to drop the revs down a wee bit, but it does come off the corners well as it is.
