RE: 1/8TH SCALE HYDRO BUILD QUESTIONS
Thanks again. I bet you are getting tired of all my questions. I was looking at installing my rudder on the left transom as well. But it seems to be the opposite of what a lot of people do. Also, I was thinking 2.25 inches off the transom would be ok for me. Or should I go shorter? Here are some more questions.
1) What about the tapered or the straight rudders? Is there a difference and is there a better performing one of a hydro?
2) What about length of the rudder. I see them ranging from four inches to a little over five inches. Any suggestions on this?
3) Are the holes on the CMB 67 engine a certain distance? Because it is impossible to find a 4" engine mount for the CMB 67. I was looking at the CMDi motor mounting system for their 67 and it looks like it would work, but I don't know if the rail distance for that mount is for a 5 inch or 4 inch.
