Traxxas Villain Submerged prop

[jacobo.jajati@sbcglobal.net]

Hello all

I have a traxxas villain hull totally dismantled I want to convertit to
a submerged prop

I have purchased a Graupner 700 bb motor and stright shaft and a 42mm
three blade prop. and what i believe is all the accesories.

i know this is a masive project but ihave patiance and tools. i want to
knwo if the existing traxxas xl-10 will support thi motor and if there
are any suggestions on how to set this up. Im worried abot not
purchasing a strut to hold the shaft i heas just going to epoxy as far
back as possible to keep it stiff.

i have also purchased a transome mount rudder water cooling and lots of
epoxy.

i wya be going crazy but i like the idea of what im doing. o also i was
thinking of a direct drive setup

please advise
