    1/10 shovel question- motor cover installation

    Hi,
    I'm new to the world of 1/10 scale shovels. I have a newbie question on which way to install the motor cowling--

    Option 1: cutout is towards the front (perhaps to allow an angular install of the fake motor?) in which case the entire motor cowling sits higher up in the hull.

    Option 2: cutout is towards the rear (perhaps to allow clearance for the brushless motor?) which case the entire motor cowling sits lower in the hull.

    See attachments--

    I have a seaking 180 ESC and it has a rather high profile-- if Option1 is right, it will fit. If Option 2, then I need to find a shorter ESC.


    Thanks,
    Chief

      What boat is that? Wood, glass, kit, etc?
