Tamoil F1 605 EP Tunnel by Dragon Hobby

A new super-cool brushless F1 RTR tunnel boat from Dragoon Hobby. The boat is painted to resemble the most famous of them all as in the F1 DAC boat that Guido Cappelini won several F1 world championships in a few years ago.


Do note, the Tamoil F1 has no outboard motor - it just looks like that - the brushless inrunner motor is mounted inside the boat and it has a flexshaft as most RC boats have today. But on the transom there is a new rudder/strut system with a good looking Merc F1 power head style cowl (even including the beefy Merc exhaust). As the "outboard" is attached to the rudder it will also turn when you turn, creating an good illusion that its actually an outboard on the transom!

  • Length: 605 mm
  • Width: 240 mm
  • Height: 130 mm
  • Weight: 1 kg RTR
  • Hull material: fiberglass
  • Motor: water cooled B2848-2185KV in-runner
  • ESC: water cooled 50A
  • Radio: 2.4GHz radio system (AA batteries not included)
  • Rec. battery: 3S (11.1V) 2200-4500 mAh (not included)

#1210025A - Retail: 4392SEK (in Sweden including 25% VAT)

Available in hobby stores all around Scandinavian countries through Minicars Hobby Distribution.

TecnoPower Activity Stop Announcement


TecnoPower Activity Stop Announcement

http://www.tecnopower-motor.com

Sad news from Rody Roem:

"Dear All,

TecnoPower is forced to stop the manufacturing of model racing engines for the simple reasons that we are not managing to generate enough sales to cover our costs and so cannot continue our existence as a real manufacturer.

TecnoPower will officially close at December 2011.

We will try to service our distributors in the best possible way until our closure and would like to apologize to any inconvenience caused with this announcement.

Me and my partners at Tecnomeccanica have put in a lot of time and financial efforts since August 2009 to get this project going, I think that the quality of our production is at the level where it should be but the economical situation dictates us differently.

Thank you again all for your trust in me and my partners during this adventure and I will try to serve you as best as I can until the closure of TecnoPower.

For who is interested, the company and engine project (molds, tooling, designs) are for sale!, you can contact us at team@tecnopower-motor.com - only serious demands will be honored.

Sincerely, Rody Roem"

Japanese RC boats revisited

Here is a batch of relatively new pics from the Japanese RC boat scene! :)

We now know that the "Jap" style of RC outriggers are here to stay for our type of heatracing also - at least in the smaller sizes. Here in Sweden we have seen the Zipp Kits JAE 21G2, the Wood R/C Boat Racing Products BlackBird .21 Generation 2 and also my own prototype KEP's T2-21 riggers that seem to work equally good in race conditions. :)

The original first post - HERE.

Do note that most of the below riggers are not heatracing riggers that are raced among other boats - they are smaller versions used for their 100 m short course 4-lap type of solo racing.

The source of most of the below pics is found HERE.
