Well here she is ...Flex cable routed through stock rudder that's fixed in place and then added a pro boat turn rudder put a extra section of plastic behind the back of the hull wall to make the rear stronger... One thing now i am wondering if i should cut off the fin as show in the photo?...Or will this fin make it more stable in the turns?

Sweet bro. I've done the power up grade thing so far I'm still running stock hardware and u can tell things are off center. Are u still running a brushed motor in her?

Hi yes i am but after i did the flex shaft mod the boat is smooth as glass no vibrations at all ...the stock unit made it sound like the boat was going to vibrate apart!!

Should have used a BJ26 flexshaft with U joint PRB2812.
