your going to want to reinforce that bulkhead. the edge is pretty weak behind the shock mounts. check the diy watercraft thread

ya im actually going to do that and build a tower like on the pro rmk.

we stuck a rx1 motor in a dragon already too

What did you build the boards out of? They turned out pretty cool. Looks like an interesting build.

boards are 1in aluminum on the outside tube and the inside runners are 3/4


the powder coat is a silver vein and when baked it cause the chemicals to react and split
