Operating instructions for the SX-4000 model boat, Order No. 2000
The model
During race events in the USA Hans Lehner's SX-4000 established two world's speed records at 149
km/hr in the 6-cell class, and 156 km/hr in the 7/8-cell class.
Straightway races are held over a 100 m course; the boat has to complete the course in both
directions from a flying start, and the average speed of the two passes is calculated.
The boat is designed for straight running only, and the primary purpose of the rudder is simply to
provide course correction.
The model features a carbon fibre hull and a GRP deck. It is supplied with the following parts factory-
installed: stern tube and propeller shaft, motor mount, rudder and steering linkage, servo mount, shaft
coupling (5.0 Ø x 1.5 mm) etc.
