RE: How have others hooked up water rudder?
I added a water rudder to both floats with a rod connecting the two and fishing line still goes to the rudder on either side with a spring. I'll give this a try, I think the line going to the rear gear legs and pulleys as Jim suggested would be better but i have nothing to use as pulleys right now. It should steer good on the water now anyways.
I can see that the way i have it now the line might get snagged on things.
