    Hello everyone , i've been into rcing for a while , wanted to try something new so bought a Proboat Formula from a friend for cheap , it was collecting dust in the box for a while . i was scooting around the pond and musta hit something and broke the flex shaft where it couples to the prop shaft , they don't make that part anymore and i can't find one . is there anything i can do ?

    Do you see this cable offert from OSE , https://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pr...ex+Cable+Parts , there are 0,150 the lengh you have to cut , best with a dremel and cutting disc but a grinder will do the same job . Look around , is there no maschine shop where you can aske for help ?
