Default Jet stream 800 ep now nitro

Hi converted my jet stream to nitro tons of problems but most are fixed

hopefully this will be my last problem for a while lol

the universal drive at the back was great when it was electric you could stop the motor but crap with nitro as the boat just jumped out of the water and turned around and the engine stopped for a second

so going to try this got a huge prop get that a go as the standard one was way too small hopefully stop the engine over revving if not chuck the old one back one got to file down all the screws after i put stud lock on and cut off the bottom of the old plastic rudder

now i made the rudder out of aluminum brackets and the rudder out of a steel ruler i had nice and light but very strong hopefully if its not raining tomorrow give it a go lol
