Thank you for the photos. Where to buy the PolyRC Lipo 2s? Looks like your speed control is in motor compartment too. Charger?

RCLipos.com for the PolyRC Lipos.

Perfect! Thanks for the photos and link, just what I needed to get my arse in gear.

Digging through all my old goodies I located a 3/16" Hughey flex cable and teflon tube with a stub shaft that reduces down to 1/8 prop size. I *might* be able to use my adjustable stainless Hughey strut for this off of my old school 1/16'" Dumas Miss Thriftway. The flex cable almost fits inside the Astro Flight 25 motor coupler so maybe it isn't 3/16 ??.... grrr. Time to measure it.

I'll have to craft up a solution for the adjustable rear strut behind the transom to hold this Hughey strut. Maybe Darin's build up earlier this year will inspire me somehow.

Photos soon of what I've got to start with, any coaching will surely be helpful.
