That is the dangest servo and linkage I have seen...looks pretty good.

I also get them from ETTI in different lengths. They are neat.

Great decals! Did you print those on the inkjet?

I didn't see them on your site. Do you have a price?

I' ve got an other idea using a Graupner 3/16" drive dog, have a look and let me know what you think

I wasn' t sure about HOTR strut and Graupner drive dog assembly but that' s OK. I need to install a tube of brass on the shaft for a perfect assembly. [ right side of the picture ]. Propeller shaft will be very well guided without axial amount of play.



Here is the Graupner drive dog, with this one I can put all 3/16" sized propellers on 4mm shaft and propellers with M4 threaded



Installing a brass tube 4mm inside and 5mm outside, approx. 15mm long. Like this the shaft won' t move, only a small amount of play

If you mean the one on my Bud' Select Boat, Thanks, I had this big strong servo and it wouldn't fit under the cover so I put it there. It work is all!!!

[Jeff Wohlt]

You will see my site changing more soon. I have some goodies coming but am also losing a few...motors will probably not be there anymore and a few other items.

These come in several lengths...I use the longest I can put on for XL and that is 60mm for .

Yes they are $10.50. (sorry had to edit that)

I just had to move my site to another prider...yahoo so it will be undergoing some surgery over the next week or so.

These will be up by this evening.

What is your setup?

[KillerDave]

What is your setup?

Ok,
Feigao 12L
Etti Navy 125 ESC
2x 3S 5000mAh Li-Po's (6S)
TFL Hobby Rudder fitted with an Octura skeg
Prop Shop 40mm prop but I don't know the pitch...????

[domwilson]

Wow...You're really pushing that 12L. Boat looks good. How are your temps? How long do you run it each time?

[KillerDave]

This was the first time I have run it, I didn't time it I think about 8 min's??? Maybe???
I don't know the temp either, I have no way of measuring them??
One of the guys at the lake flies E-Heli's, He thinks the batteries are fine, Not too hot????
What motor would you have put into it?

[elvish]

r there numbers on the prop?

[KillerDave]

I was given the prop Ballanced and pollished, the numbers are all but gone...

I myself would have went with an 8XL or 9XL on 4S or a 11XL or 12XL on 6S.
But I'm a bit more cautious. But if you are doing this reliably with good temps on all your components (motor, ESC, Batteries) have fun with it. It's just not what I would run.

[elvish]

a mate i run with has one with my old 7xl and a 447/3 prop i modded

ozzie-crawl when you get online, please give us more info on the setup, thanks

It seems to run fine, I was just having a little fun this week, next week I'll go down to the lake and try to get one long run, I'' time it, get a GPS speed and see if I can get temps too...

[KillerDave]

Ok, Now I'm getting lost! This is my first FE and brushless too... Can you explain the difference against what I am running and what has been sugested?????
