I picked up a used TS2 and setup from a friend, after I mounted the leg on my brand spanking new TS3 hull I noticed the prop assy was loose. It appears that all but 1-1/2 to 2 threads are missing from inside the lower leg.
I've had an ad posted on the WTB for a few days, but it doesn't seem to be helping me pick up a new leg.
I've read quite a bit on the downfalls of the REK leg, but I've got 3 new shafts for this setup, the holes are already drilled for the mount, and the steering is already sorted out for this.
I don't plan on running anything hotter than a stock 1800Kv, I'm not a racer, and I'm fairly meticulous with my
If I have to buy a whole new setup I'll probably end up filling holes and buying the more recommended mounts when funding allows.
...but until then:
Has anybody ever successfully repaired the threads on this? Helicoil? Epoxy? etc... :pray:
Here are some pictures:
