Custom/Hybrid Aircraftsalz 2011 Superfreak Badass Flatwater Build

[Aircraftsalz]

Thanks Tem for the Plate, Lucas said he's coming up Monday.... I think the plan is to turf them both Monday.. Chris has a shaft for me, hope to get it Saturday & install the pump, intake grate, trim, pole, & mounts, etc. Maybe drop the motor in.

I'm dropping the pipe off to have it polished today..... Gotta have that Powerfactor Pipe looking pretty

Looking good!

That paint is going to look nice while spinning through the air! and that hull/engine combo is going to spin it like crazy fast!

 

[chriselmore_1]

looks dope! Wish there was one in the wild west to test ride.... Also what's the deal with the larger bondline twards the rear? Looks good but just curious

 

[Matt_E]

Look at a Rickter sometime....very similar. They act like cornering sponsons.

I can't wait til u get ur new ski, just make sure its got some BBBBRRRAAAPPPP, lol so we can compare


Worked on the ski this afternoon & somemore tonight. Lots of grinding on the Reduction nozzle & new Thrust trim to get the most travel.... It takes a lot of work to get the same throw out of a 65V Reduction nozzle...

Pole brackets installed, Trim & Steering cables installed, Hull side hood hooks installed, built the steering set up, bars, grips, start/stop.... Few Stickers.....

Gotta have a Third water fitting welded on my pump tomorrow, should have the pump, midshaft, ebox all installed tomorrow.

Pole & hoodseal Sunday, that leaves turf, pipe, motor for Monday-Tue.....

 

[Matt_E]

Hey Josh, what steering nozzle is that?

 

[Aircraftsalz]

Matt Thats a Pro Tec GP800 nozzle thats +50mm......Just wait Tem will have a new one soon......

 

[Matt_E]

I know, been talking to him. :biggrin:
That thing looks super long. Is there a point to that?
Paint looks awesome.

 

[QJS]

Looking good Josh....Badly in need of an ATP sticker though lol.
Chris.

 

[Freakrider]

you are killing us Josh ! we are max stoked for ya !

lots of video of test rides for us please...

 

[superwetbrett]

That nozzle is sick!! My wife would love to ride it!

 

[FlightPlanDan]

Paint looks awesome.
The pump nozzle sticking out sooo far is a function of the hull, I guess. Everyone says it's the shiott. But, just to be safe, wear a cup! lol. I'm sure it will be incredible.

 

[Aircraftsalz]

Got the pole installed, Hood seal, Brap strap, Carbs on bolted on, Ported the Exhaust gasket to match the cylinder... Its coming right along..... Would have got more done today, but someone stole avionics out of one of my planes. I won't even get started with that....

Hope to finish most of the build tomorrow..
