New to r/c boats, just got a tunnel hull made by "Top Speed" Great Planes Marine. This is my starter boat because I got it for nothing. I got the kit (inc engine) but it came without assembly instructions. Does anyone know where I can get instructions? I have researched and came up with part # GPMZ0261 (for instructions). Went to Great Planes website with no luck. Any help woud be appreciated. The hull is white and made of plastic.

Here's a link to the Top Speed 2's instruction manual.http://www.aquacraftmodels.com/downloads/hcab5010-5011-5012-manual.pdf It's not the same boat, but it might help.

I actually located that same manual this am and had it saved in my favorites. I have located a sho that sells that articular boat, I will contact them on Tuesday to see if I can get a copy of the instructions for that particular boat.

Thats the new OB Tunnel right? Saw one in the latest TowerTalk & looks good. For less than $100, might have to buy one to my 3.5 on & compliment the shelf queens.:D
Can you show us some pics of everything as you go along? Engine, radio box etc..?

Not sure if is the new OB Tunnel, I know it came from Great Planes, and it has "Top Speed" also written on the box. I will send pics when I figure how to load them to post.

When posting pics hosted from another website... right click on the pic, get the properties & copy. Then go to the Post Reply button & click what looks like a yellow picture where the bold, underline, etc. are located & just to the left of the small blue world. Right click again & paste into the box that comes up.
Or,
Posting pics from your puter...
Look down a little below & find Manage Attachments. There you can insert from your file. If too large, it'll need resizing.
Back to the boat.............. THATS NOT IT? Man I was hoping it was as I like it & want to see more pics before committing to purchase. :)

You're welcome. I happened across it while searching for something else and remembered that I had seen a thread asking about it. The biggest challenge was remembering which of the many forums I follow had the thread.
