Hi, i have bought a s/h boat which is fitted with the Graupner Z-Drive and a Graupner 700bb Turbo motor wondering if anyone has any experience/opinions on the z-drive or any advice on this setup for me as i cant seem to find much on the net about z-drives. Thanks guys!

Is this the outboard motor, or the Azimuthing Stern Drive?

The Stern Drive version like the one below, it is powered by a Graupner 700bb Turbo if that helps with any advice

Z-drives are not that common, I guess it is due to the lack of maufactures making them. If I could afford one, I have a boat that I would like to try it on.

wrote something about this in your b-24 thread, refered to the z-600, i´m not sure if it´s the same as on the picture!

As said in my other thread the mystery of this z-drive has been solved, it is in fact an MHZusa z-drive for 45 inch plus boats (which mine is certainly not, the previous owner put this on this 24 inch boat for some reason) anyways anyone with experience of z-drives feel free to comment!

You asked if anyone has experience with Z-drives. You're talking about the electro version but it might be good to pay the Gas Forum a visit as there are quite a few guys running them. If you feel adventurous, maybe give the guys at Xtreme RC Boats forum a holler.

If the electro Z-drive is anything like its larger brothers, then you'll be please with it for sure. Again, they sure are nice to look at & perform very well.
