CT03 Freak Out
Hey Guys,
Kieran Harrison from Australia here, aka Stinky. Am having my first rc boat freak out right now..... Tomorrow I should be receiving my MHZ CT03 hull and running gear (finally) I am going to set it up with twin Zens and try to go as scale as possible. Am freaking out because I've never built one of these things before, I have a very heavy background in automotive repair and am currently working as a Bicycle Mechanic, My other great passion. Just thought that I'd give you guys a "heads up" as im sure to be asking some pretty stupid questions. Im sure that I can rely on some great feedback from you guys to make this German beast a reality.
You will here from me soon.........
Kieran

RE: CT03 Freak Out
Have just ordered clutches and mounts from Warehouse Hobbies, plus a bunch of other stuff. Expect them to arrive next week. Seemed to be the best mounts for me to adapt to my ct03. Have fitted the drives and rudder, (drilled holes anyway). will get photos up soon.
