    Hyper Performance Outboard

    I will start carrying the Hyper Performance 3.5 outboard leg as a complete unit and will also have the individual parts.

        I like it. The graupner units are more scale, so its nice to now have something for the performance minded.

            What took so long was that I've been waiting for one place that carried all the parts. I really didnt want to mix and match different manufacturers items to make one outboard unit.

            Someone scooped the first one. I will have more in about 1 week.

                Steven,
                Good deal! That's the unit I've been running on my VS-1. It just plain works. I'll have to post a pic of the skeg done up.

                I won '09 season high points in open tunnel at the Emerald City Model Boat club (Eugene, OR) running against the other FE and Nitro boats. It's possibly the best handling lower unit I've tried (I've had most of them).

                It's got the best shaft alignment of all the units I've tested. All assembled with motor in place it has no more drag than a really well setup inboard.

                The stub shaft is fantastic. It's standard K&B threads and fits the REK lowers as well. I've got one with over 2 seasons on it and it still doesn't wobble.

                  I plan on running the REK lower. What motor/ESC/battery/prop are you using? Is it spec?

                    Thanks for the info Brian. Darin posted that you guys were having good luck with it, so I figured I needed to take a look. When I did I liked it.

                    I'm also thinking about getting some of the 7.5 legs.

                        How do you adjust the angle of the prop with this mount that comes with it ?
                        Do you have to use a wedge under the mounting base ?

                          The mount both tilts and goes up and down.

                            Have you thought about carrying their angle drive....the black one?

                              I was told by a few different people that the Bullet Drive is the way to go. It was also the one recommended by Dave.

                              Have you used the angle drive?
