How is it arrogant to say one guy knows more than another? I've seen over half a dozen boats he has built, I've not seen any you've built. I can only assume some other builders know more than say you do since you say an airboat must be slow and air-rudder controlled. That's your deal, its not mine.
If I was building for the "scale" look or wanted to be the most "realistic" then I'd build differently. But I am not a scale of realistic builder. My boats are built to look good, be fast, and be fun. I think its ignorant of you to come into my thread and tell me I cannot have a wet rudder on MY boat built by ME to MY liking. A toy airboat is not a "real" airboat anyway and I don't care.
One more thing; prop cages are for wusses.
