thought i would share what i did to the hood. its a very minor mod but saves time and is pretty practical. After getting caught in a monsoon once, i decided that would be the last time for me!
 the hood i have is a VIS type, with a vent and cover, i got really tired of screwing and unscrewing when i wanted to remove the cover (especially in the rain) so i visited my local hobby-R/C shop and got some o these:    then i got some good ol epoxy and threw em in the holes!     lickety split! sometimes its the little things that count  i would strongly reccomend this cheap little move for those that plan on buying or already have this type of hood.This post has been edited by easternpiro1: Jun 1, 2009 - 10:50 PM --------------------  QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM)  You want power but have no money.

it would be better if it was easily removable because in 100' weather it would definitely help to have it off
