Hello Guys,

I hope you enjoy the visit,

Very nice Manuel.I've been back and forth on the sites getting ready to choose a hull.And I think it is going to be HPR.Quick Question:are the drives adjustable?MHZ's are not.Apparently.
Oh yeah,looking for a 115.

@ srislash:

Sure they are adjustable, the question is what you want to adjust? The HPR drives are adjustable in their "inclination" or maybe "angle of attack", hope I found the right translation. But not sideways, so they have to be aligned parallel to driving direction already during building. Correction is hardly possible afterwards.

You might see it a bit in this photo on the upper drive:

On the top support bracket of the upper drive you can see a little grub screw on the right. Release these a little as well as the M3 or M4 scew below and you can move the stainless steel or brass part up/down to adjust the height and therefore inclination. Then fix the screws again. I'd say something between plus/minus 5° is possible, way enough for all applications. And its the same principle for all HPR drives.

Taken from the picture gallery from a HPR06, also a good view on the grub screw:

Hope that answers your question?

Best regards,
Manuel
