Hey Mathieu !
I think your boat will look very nice when it's back from your painter.
Please send a picture when it is back .

Hope the painter will do a good job. I didn't asked for an absolute scale paint but something that's looks like the big one. Should see the result in 2 weeks...
In the mean time I'll work in my Baby SV and maybe on my 1:10 scale wood kit I started 1 and half year ago...
I'll keep you posted

Hey Mathieu !
I am also drive a Baby SV from Andy, very nice Boat. My Baby SV looks like the "Lucas Oil" design. Top Speed is actually 110km/h with 6s2p. I think there is a little more possible, but so it's enough for me. Some guys from Berlin and Andy said, that is the first good running electrified Baby SV they have seen until now.
Setup:
2x Leopard 5674/1550
2x ESC Turnigy 180A
2x MTC Strut III
1x MTC Rudder III
Props are Octura X-450/3

Hi Joerg,
No paint scheme for my Baby SV so far.
Mine is not built the same you did : single motor and long run time in mind. So I use an outrunner with 560 Kv with 10S2P 5000. The goal is to get close to the running time and speed compared with boats powered by a stock Zenoah engine.
So no 110 km/h here

Hi,
Can some of you explain how to make the fake turbine exhaust with LEDs please ?
I know Mike have one on his Tandem Wing and you can see almost all 1:6 scale electrics have it also.
I'm asking because a friend of mine just received his MPM-107 from Peter and he would like to make the fake turbine exhaust. Cherry on the cake would be this effect : https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...type=3&theater

Hello Mathieu,
I am on a business trip now, I make pictures when I come back.
Its only a carbon tube fixend a the cover, with a LED in it.

Am Anfang vom Problemen steht meist die ungeprüfte Annahme ....
Thanks you for the pics Mike.
A very good idea for the wires, very cleaver !!!
Mathieu
Hey Mathieu !
I've mounted the turnfin now. I ordered the same one like you at mini meca rc. It is adjustable from 0° to 15° degree. I read approximately 7° is a good default angle.
best regards
Joerg

Hello Joerg,
What thickness did you ordered ? 3 or 4mm ?
Where the point come from ?
Can't wait to see more of your build

Hey Mathieu !
That is the standard one with 4mm. I will see how it works and when I get any problems, I make it thinner by myself.
I 'm actually think about the positioning of the mounting bracket. I mounted the turnfin at the outer side of the mounting bracket. Is that right ? I heart, you have to mount the turnfin at the inner side of the bracket, so the water could raise up along the turnfin without any resist. Also the side length of the mounting bracket is along the whole length of the turnfin, I think, I will shorten it a little bit.
OK, that are all peanuts, but in summary it could be have an influence.
regards Joerg

Hey Mathieu !
I changed the mounting bracket. So I'm able to fix the fin at the inner side of the bracket and the water can raise up without any resist. The adjusted angle is 7° degree at the moment. This should be my default adjustment for the maiden run.

Hello Joerg,
Your second installation is better I think, but will the mount be strong enougth to not bend in turns ? Maybe you planned to fix the turn fin at his back ?
Keep up the good work !
I should get my hull from the painter next week....... Can't wait !!!
Mathieu
Hey Mathieu !
You are right, I am still waiting for the material to retain the fin against the hull. I'll use 4 rod strainer like this

Yeah !
Love that !
I may add a couple to mine, but It would be "Just for the eyes" because my mount is thick enougth.
Mathieu
Hey Mathieu !
I use a 6mm mounting bracket. That should be strong enough. But additional retaining is not bad and is an pretty eyecatcher. I put all the hardware on his desired place today and the COG is 6mm behind the sponson. I think that is a good default value.
regards Joerg

Ok your mount is definitely strong enougth but as it is shorter then the fin I was worried about the fin. With the additionnal rods, it will looks nice and be strong enougth !
For the CG you mean 6cm, no ?
Mathieu
Yes, 6cm of corse
Wer später bremst ist länger schnell
So it's good !
You didn't had to open the sponsons to place the lipos ?
If you can take a picture that show where the parts are located it would help my friend who's building one.
Greets,
Mathieu
Hallo Mathieu !
Here some pics. But the COG was without Wings and Canopy.
