Since my induction to r/c boats, I have become hooked, with my Mono project finishing up rather nicely, should be done in a week or two-Right when the weather drops to a "High Performance" temperature/air density.

Anyways, I am really starting to like Riggers. My setup I have concocted is this:

- Eagle SGX .80 Size
- CMB 1.00
- Custom Andy Brown Prop

However, I was wondering, is the Anti-Walk strut offered by CMD really effective? Also, does CMD Produce a MAC 1.00? Or is the .84 the largest? Also do they produce a 90/100 sized pipe?

Please give me your thoughts or comments.

Frankly, I want the speed, I want to Dive In. This is the class I would like to race/drive/speed run, that is why I chose the smaller 80 size.

Thanks,
Todd

If Andy uses and sells it, it's good. I just bought a MAC .45 motor and had his people do up 4 props for me.
No, his largest is the .84 .
Well Todd, I hope that you do have a lot of money and experience with boats, you'll need both. Yes, 'riggers are the coolest things on water but they take time and experience to set up properly. They can be a handful at times.
Realistically, work your way up to them, you'll be glad that you did.

Figuring that this project won't be done until spring, I hope to have gained enough knowledge to drive these types of boats. I know that they will be a hand full, and VERY Fast, but I always love a challenge.

The main reason for me wanting this setup is my love for speed. I may drop down to hte 84 mac with the 60 size hull, I'm undecided.

But I do know I want a rigger.

Maybe I am crazy, but it will be a fun project. :D :confused:
