I am installing a K&B 3.5 on a VS1. With the sponsons at the rear sitting on a table where should the center of the shaft be? I have a Hot Shot IV that likes the center to be about 1/8" above the bottom of the sponsons but have no idea for this boat. I will be able to adjust up or down about 1/4" but am looking for a good starting place so I won't have to re-drill the transom to move it. Thanks, Bret

I know this is an electric thread but I thought some of you who run electric in the VS1 could give me a heads up.Dumas Air Boat OS 25 nitro, Dumas Air Boat Brushless, Midwest Lobster Boat, AQ Lucas Oil Cat, Dumas Hot Shot IV Proboat outboard, Delta Force Cyber Storm 33

Here is the VS1 manual if you havent taken a peak at it though I believe the boat was designed around a OS Lower. If you're not already member sign up on www.intlwaters.com and I know you'll find someone who runs the VS1 with a K&B.

Thanks for the information. I have the manual and the motor mounting template is for OS. I believe the K&B is longer from the mount to the prop? I found a post by Jerry Dunlap on RC Universe (searching Google) that said C/L of prop 3/16" above the bottom of the sponsons. I guess this would be a good starting place? I would think the prop to hull depth distance would be the same whether it is OS, K&B, or electric.Originally posted by Chilli View PostHere is the VS1 manual if you havent taken a peak at it though I believe the boat was designed around a OS Lower.
