How would you pickup water?
I'm getting really close to run (next 2-3 days) with my TS3 build. I have a new REK leg (thanks Jr) with no pickup holes drilled aft of the prop. Last leg I had (stripped threads...probably my fault) had the pickup behind the prop on the leg, but I was thinking I might want to shorten the cavitation plate to accomodate a larger diameter prop than 42mm? (OK, I guess thats a question too ;)
What do you think? Pickup behind the prop on the leg and stick w/42mm (I have a GR-42/55)? or....Transom pickup w/tube? or....Fancy thru hull pickup block at the stern (as seen on OSE)?
Running 1800Kv (aka ~1500Kv)/AQ60A ESC now, but might want to move up to 2030Kv AQ motor.
Thanks all!
