Hello folks, If I run my HITEC RCD Ranger II TX with 8 1.2v 2250mAh NiMH Cells, the cells should provide ample current, but the 8 cell config will be under...
Most of the guys in out club just use the 1.2 volt cells (I do). My understanding is the the lower voltage will reduce range a tiny bit, but not enough to...
... Wow, only 250? Let's see, for a 2 channel boat, only $125 a channel. What a bargain ;) Unfortunately Jim, our boats don't even cost that much and since...

... I'm sure that would make for a stronger hull, but most of us wouldn't want to add the weight...risk of being holed is really not that great after about...
More on antennas: anybody have a glitch when the antenna is inside the hull? I can't run that way. I have to have the antenna running up the mast. Using a ...
Greetings, Several boat at our pond swear by inside locations. It seems to me when the boat is going directly toward or away from you there could be a problem...
... I ... regarless ... inside ... I sent this once but I don't think it went so will try again. I sail a S1M and I tape the antenna around the inside of the...
Thanks for the input. Coming and going may be the problem. I'll keep it on the mast. By the way, my Midwest lobster boat has no problems with the antenna ...
... was ... Guess I should have looked at the calendar! Sucked me right in there, Richard....hope my reply added entertainment value to everyones' day!!...
I have fewer glitches with the antenna running up the mast than with it in the hull, but still get them. I do, however, get greater range. Also, re 1.2 v...
And just picture the damage that you can now do to all the other hulls with all that added strength and rigidity!! George Levine Currently near Ocala Florida ...
How long is your antenna wire that you can tape it around the inside of the boat? Mine was too short, only about half the length of the hull. Can the wire be...

Hi Mike! I saw your response and figured I'd take a moment to respond directly to your thought. I know the site rules prohibit direct advertising but it does...
George, You say to add 12" to the antenna. I thought that changing the length will upset the reception. We are always cautioned not to cut the lead, but...
I am building my first RC boat, a soling, and with all this talk about holing boats, sinking, making super hulls and so on.... should I be thinking about...

Your probably right. Does anyone have any idea how often boats have been holed and gone down. I bet it's so rare that the probability is near nil. But....the...

Here is another way to rig your receiver antenna. I use a Deans 6 inch aircraft whip antenna, designed for 72 MHZ. I am using it both on 27 and 75 MHZ and have...
... South Florida has had at least four Soling 1M and one US 1M holed and sunk. Mine was one of the Solings. Granted, I think all of the sinkings were on days...
