The 2'' round patch is what I bond to hi stress corners, I just clone details found on other CRRC combat hulls.
Glue cleanup will be forth coming.
Cheers, Don

Pete I wonder if this piston damper and bits have recently been added to the prototype design?
That could be the reason for a delayed production. I really like the use of fluid dynamics to help slow down the piston energy. I cant wait to put one of these guns in my sons collection some day.

I got lucky with the rain forcast and humidity was in spec.
5 hrs of haplon speedtube and cone end prep and gluing parts from Zodiac CRRC 306 get to go to sea again.
My cone mod will lessen drag at the tail of the speedtube when sumerged to some degree along with protecting the thin end cap from speartip punctures.Cheers, Don
PS issue loading pix will try later.

Stiffness is defined as the slope of the stress-strain curve. It is not affected by strength (and therefore heat treatment) in any way. Any kind of strengthening (heat treatment, cold working, etc.) only move the plastic yield point of the material further up the stress-strain curve, they do not alter its slope.
Hardness is related to strength in the sense that hardness can be thought of as localized strength. The harder the material, the stronger it is, and vice-versa.Cheers. Don

I should have the the zodiac glue by Fri but rain is predicted for the weekend.
Removed the motor lower cowlings and motor mount covers to clean and torque bolts. Bits will be powder coated before refit. Found 2 composite/canvas covered line caddys, strapped them in a spot out of the way for now. Started sealing wiring plugs with black silicon rescue tape. Night air is getting cool. A big ass German Shep/Wolf stopped by for a look at the boat. His name is Shadow and is the biggest Shepard I have ever seen.Cheers, Don
PS sorry about the flipped pix. They are OK on my browser but get sideways when I post.

Found a dirt cheap 10.5 13p Vengeance Stainless prop with perfect hub. Installed the port and starboard trim tap fittings. More glue is on the way so I can wrap up the speedtube cones before it gets too cool.
Cheers, Don

I gave Thumper to my son Dillon for a buck to use as he see's fit. ...Yeah me back is flecked again and I've self medicated with some good whiskey...heat pack ..and ice. Wish I had a fine Cuban cigar in my mouth..sitting with the sun at my back on a warm island ...tanned brown skin, with the sent on coconut oil walks by... lighting it with a wooden storm match. Oh I wish I could write, drink and box like Papa.
Back to it in a couple days.
