    She's so beautiful :) Could someone give me a tip with my propeller shaft in my mini mono? :) It's 32cm long and got a 3mm shaft from an AquaCraft Hammer EP :) I wonder how I make flex shafts by piano strings :) Is it just to put it in place? :P Anyway I'll try to survive with my shaft I got now and upgrade l8er, it almost broke when pulling the minimum gas with my 380-class brushless 5100kv motor, I've ordered a 2200kv Brushless motor in the same size, It may go better :p Well good work I have to say! Beautiful!

    Beast regards

      Nice paint Casey...I can't paint for beans.

      Adam,
      To get more exposure so that your question will get answered you should start a new thread with a title like "need advice on mini mono prop shaft" or something.

      Welcome to the board!

                  Casey,
                  I just read the story about your old one. Not a nice way to loose a boat. Anyway you have a good attitude and have built a very nice looking replacement. I guess the transom of that boat is going to haunt your dad after a few races.
