I have several, and as far as I can tell, only the prop nut looks the same.

Looks that way to me, too. I'm not sure I like it, but maybe I'm old and cynical.

4-bolt head, looks like a plastic backplate, etc. Who knows what they've done inside to cost reduce it, too.

They have to reduce cost. Or sell electric motors.

RE: New Thunder Tiger Pro 46

This sort of thing must drive Bob Davis nuts, I have the 46 with the 6 bolt head now a 4 bolt head so he will have to gear up and make the new version too for a diesel conversion
and they drop the 10 from production which is one the best out there in that size martin
