CONTRAROTATING PROPS DIRECTIONS
Just a quick question, which is the best rotations to have on a cat with Contrarotation props? Both rotation outwards or inwards? I know one is best for straight out speed and the other for turns/stability just can't remember what one is what?
Thanks
Mick

All i can speak from is what customers have told me on the Apaches,inward is a tad faster but squirely whereas outward is smoother and more stable thus faster round a circuit etc.This might not be the same for a cat as the props are further apart so the oposite might be true

No unfortunately, it puts the carby's on the inside of the boat, aw well just as well that i was buying the header pipes to help me do this, may have to do a little trimming on the inside lip for the plugs. I prefer to have a stable boat anyday.
