thats i good idea but you need to plug the holes up on the rudders or youll have crappy steering
The rudders will be (have been today) covered... Aircraft covering material

I am also a little concerned about the open servos in the floats. If they get wet, they may fail on you.
Have you got them water-proofed?
How do you plan on keeping the line from getting into the prop?
I'm looking forward to seeing your first fishing trip with this. Do you have video capabilities so we can see it in action?
The open servo in the float is a Futaba 3003, and the float sits quite high in the water. If the servo starts giving me trouble, i will replace it with something better.
The line comes out from the bottom of the 'delivery box' and under a bar that runs across under the motor mount, this is below the level of the tip of the prop. The rudder mount is also below the level of the prop tip... so in theory, the prop tip shouldnt come in to contact with the line.
Will see what i can do about the video..
