It looks great !!! Get some video. :mrgreen:

Is that the MHO ?

And what kind of paint did u use ?

(I'm in the process of gathering parts for one)

Awesome Chris. How much time do you have into it?

[bighands3d]

Yes it's the MHO kit.

The paint was Auto air latex. I'll try to get some video when I get a calm day to try it out.

Will you can build one in about 6hrs. It took me longer because I sanded as I went
took my time. It does build up fast though the instructions don't have any pic's to go buy but you can figure it out.

You coming to Clint's Chris? If you do please bring it!!

Chris, which type of glue worked the best ?

I think I' accumulated everything except for the prop now. Thanks for the Autoair tip, I have several of their waterbased colors, I hadn't even thought about using those. did you shoot it with any kind of clear or just leave the base colors as is ?
Thanks, and sorry for all the questions, I'm kind of excited. :D

I used the Gold foam safe ca and Kicker just go sparingly on the kicker as per instructions.

As for clear no clear I didn't have any of the Water based clear besides Weight is always a factor on a foamie. I have a different motor if I need more power the Just go fly.com 400DF. But I''ll try what i have for now.

No won't be comming to clint's I have my daughter that weekend. So I'll be staying close to home.

Just read this thread (a bit late!) - do you mean this boat thing actually flies!!!!!!! like in the air? How? is a a 'lifting body' or what. If it is an aircraft and I'm not being a thickie, does it also work on water? What about wet grass or snow. I'm intrigued :?
