Would appreciate some help with the final setup of the MVD.32... I have pretty much worked out the basics of layout with the .32. I have had some issues, one with a starter for the Dynamite .32, I am worried about the structural integrity of the Deuce using a pull start, the flexing of the hull in particular. I am interested in a pull start, but don't exactly know how they work and don't know where the belt would tuck away after started (there is NO space between the box and the shaft). My second question: I have rolled the boat twice, on both occasions the left sponson has dug in while turning right, both occasions, I could see the turn fin out of the water. I am on my second Grim Fin, the first was sheered off at its flexing point, and the second has flex marks. I was told to try an Ul-1 CNC steel turn fin, but my worries are that it will still not hold to the water. I will post the last video I have with the shiny grim fin out of the water on a not so hard turn, hope you can help me..thanks in advance

when using a starter belt you must hold down the tpo of the motor this helps but yes
you can rip her a new one if not carefull theres a vid of mr twister on the bench
and i wached him shim up his motor to line up the shaft

Check out my 21 miss vegas thread, I used carbon fiber laid out on the floor to stiffen the boat up. You can also use a sheet of fiberglass or simply lay a coat of epoxy. Thats what most of is do. As far as your turn fin, you could use a slick stick, and make a bracket to get it deeper in the water.

I have ran the grim fin on my miss a with no problems .I had to limit how much thro the ruder has.The fin on my vagas works perfect.What prop you using might get to much lift.The Ul 1 fin is alum and not stainles i thinck.

Thanks for the help. I like the look of the carbon fiber matting. Can someone send me a link for the slick stick, cant find anything on it? I am using a M445 prop with the .32

you have to get hold of yota .If the grim wont hold it the slick stick wont.It wouldnt hold my miss A at speed.My miss a and vagas both suck the right sponson down in the corners.You might want to try the 442 2 blade.It dont lift as much.
