iv never tryed one of those bullets for the end of the prop do they hold in tight or is a fiber locknut better -
I lost a brand new 440/3 prop with that bullet nut. Never lost a prop on the fiber locknut."A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."

ye do those bullet nuts lock in or are they almost like a regular hex nut?Comment

If you absolutely HAVE to use a bullet nut, Use Loctite. They do not lock in."A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."

It looks good. You can can calm down the sensitivity of the steering a bit by grinding off that skeg on the strut. I found my Bj was easer to turn after I got rid of the skeg strut. You know ya have enough room on the motor can to add another water jacket or heat sink and fan. You may want to look into that. I got my setup from 3Racing. Other than thoude couple things it looks like you have it set up good. Thanks for the vids:).Comment
