Default RE: my new semi-scale micro build...UPDATED!, new picks

well the project came to an untimely end today...I moved the motor inboard and added a rudder...surface drive...but it wouldnt plane...so i gave it a shove and throttled up and it planed but then torque rolled all the way over and sank in about 5 foot deep murky water with a deep mud bottom...i went int o find it but couldnt...this sucks...so I'll just work on my 1/4 scale airboat which is in need of a more powerful weedwackeer engine, runs but is hard to keep moving fast...and I have a wooden steam tug I neew to finish and get running properly...thats only the second loss in 4 years of running...both were ones that capsized and sank...oh well...
