Thread: Kintec offset rudder v2 pics

    Default Kintec offset rudder v2 pics

    If anyone has the kintec offset rudder v2, may I have a couple pics of it installed so I can see what it looks like?
    I ordered one for my MG and want to see if need to do some trimming to make sure larger props clear the mounts.

    I have the one that he is selling on the netshop now is that the v2? I have pics I can upload.

    Edit: Here´s the pics anyway, that´s a x642 installed. with 3-4mm of clearance from the bracket.

    I would suggest using a plastic bolt on the lowest mounting point on the rudder so the bolt breaks instead of the bracket. you can see it in my pics it worked for me when i hit some drift wood in the ocean :)

    Got mine today installed and trimmed the back off the bracket that hangs over the prop. So I don't have to worry about it hitting with adjustments and larger props.

    What do you guys think about using those plastic bolts for both rudder slots?

    That looks like a real clean trim job, and i'd like to do the same. Would you let me know what you used, and/or how you did it? Thanks!

    Its partly homemade. The alu mount I bought at OSE, I put a alu spacer underneath it for added support. The tube is evergreen plastics that i painted black.

    I just used the metal cut off wheel on my dremel. Then filed the end and edges a bit.
