Hi

Anybody bulit one of these boats? I bought one form Nimrif models in the UK
with all the hardware suitable to it ( Nimrif Models Hardware) I am using a
Hacker B50 11XL brushless motor and 16 cells. The cells are in two packs one
on each side of the boat. The boat is very fast in a straight line but
highly unstaible on turns. It will tip over very easily on truns, the boats
has to be slowed down considerbaly for turns. It will bob up and down on
turns, does this means the centre of gravity is not right? how is the centre
of gravity determined ? Also does the distance of the rudder from the
transom make a difference? At present my strut and rudder are a equal
distance form the transom some pictures I have seen on the net boats that
have the rudders further away form the transom than the strut.
