RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

Note that there is a plastic backing plate that goes between the pick-up tube and the transom. This is so that you don't have to bend the tube but it is close.

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

If it's the bearing that is sliding out, you can flare one end to help keep it in place, both ends if you need to.
If it is the bushing sliding around if it is worn, it can be replaced with another...

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

Are you talking about flex cable wind-up or do you have a problem with the drive dog or something else moving on you?

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

That's an old Warehouse Hobbies SPD-E strut and rudder. I modified the strut to take a 3/16" propshaft. I think that I made it too long but I can shorten it easily. That hardware kit originally was...

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

Steve at OSE also has a prop sharpening and balancing service but my first recommendation is to try to di it yourself. It's really not that difficult to do.

If you're going to use a 447, try the M version as it has less tongue area.

Hey, I know Mason also! I used to go through the town on the way to King's Island. Man, have you guys got some radio antennas there! To the others, it's the home of Radio Free America.

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

The problem that has been with the radios in the 2.4 Ghz band has been that the signal bounces off the water, reflecting it. I saw two boats last year that lost signal, one was lucky enough that the...

ProBoat puts decent radios in their gas boats also, about the only good thing about them!:D

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

The problem is that in keeping prices low on the package they went with a low cost radio system. This is not only from Aquacraft but any manufacturer of RTR boats or trucks. I'm personally not a fan...

Add a little flare at the prop end, that will help to hold it in place.
