can i get a smaller prop than a 35mm for a 3/16th shaft or will i need to change the shaft to 1/8th to get say a 32mm prop? as i already have a 3/16th fixed in the hull but i need a smaller prop and cant seem to find one smaller to fit the thread !!?[&o]

ok just been measuring and it is an m4 thread and ive found some props on the net, but they say L/H is this the standard prop to get for a single 480 motor or do i need R/handed prop? what does r/handed and left handed mean in prop terms?

Get whatever is standard.

The right and left are referring to the direction the prop spins while moving forward.

They make both for dual setups spinning two props opposite directions.

ok so what is standard? I don't know alot i'm new to it all!!

Let me get this right, you're using a 3/16" prop shaft and cable on a 480 motor? 37mm is the smallest in 3/16". Find someone that handles Hughey flex cables as he has them stepped up and down at the hard shaft. Fine Designs is one Hughey dealer.

left hand rotation is standard in model boating. thats as you look at it from the rear.

Yes,,, Left hand rotation is the norm, Hi Larry, nice to see you on the forums, I've been busy setting up my new house (no more renting!) haven't been around the forums, or run my boats much this summer.

hi Mike, good to see you back, a new house can take up an awful lot of your spare time. I've been in mine for 15 years and still not finished (got other priorities ). my son and I have been taking in a few races this year we made Wisconsin, Batavia and plan to make CAFE at the end of Sept. he is really into the racing and is doing very well, I'm just along for the ride lol. Haven't been on this board much I spend most on my time on RRR but am finding a lot of useful info on here also. Summer is almost over.... better get those boats wet before the lake freezes (ugh !)
