I am in the process of building a 1/10th scale 1983 Miss Renault and I am looking for a turn fin. I would like something that has a more scale appearance than some UL1 style turn fin. I found one turn fin at AccuTech, but it is designed for 1/8th scale boats and might be a bit on the large size. That turn fin has a 3 3/4" blade with a 2 3/4 inch long mounting bracket.

I guess I could make the turn fin itself if I can find a source for the bracket - but something machined like the AccuTech fin would be nice.

Was hoping someone would have some info. I just made a bracket out of a block of 1/2x1" aluminum, was a lot of hand and dremel work hollowing that out! Been making my turnfins as well, although the new one I'm trying a JAE 12 fin.
I think I see a market for someone with a milling machine.

I like the looks of this fin, but its for a larger plus 40" hydro. I wonder if it would work on my smaller Whiplash Sport 20.
