Default Is there a need for Gasser airboat parts

Is there a market for parts for gasser airboats, rudders, cages, engine stands, control parts, and hulls that are heaver duty than the standard hobby parts? If so, what are you looking for? If there is a need for these parts, I will tool up for them. I know for my self the parts I need for a gasser I cannot buy at the local hobby store.

The way model airboat hobby is becoming popular I believe there needs to be a support system. For example, offering right handed threaded prop hubs along with standard thread. In addition, the items listed above. Think of it this way, most everyone owns a vehicle however, without a auto parts store where would we be.

it would be nice not to have to manufacture every part by hand, even though that is half the fun. but things like prop shafts ,cages and engine mountings would be handy to make a build completion time much faster.

Prop adapters for one item.

You guys that play with the gassers need to come up with a list of different motors and their model numbers. This will allow someone interested in manufacturing the adapters to crunch numbers. With these crunched numbers they can publish a range of prices to us users. Then everyone can see if it is going to be feasible.
