I picked up a gator type deep v hull awhile ago.and am after some tips
for a surface drive unit and rudder for it, i tried making one but had
handling trouble. It's got a husky 225 b/c 2st engine and flex drive.
also would like servo box 4 it..if any if on getting one in australia
would be good .cheers jc


also could fit fs 86 stihl water cooled engine fo lower centre of
gravity.
and tips on set up,weights etc

What sort of budget do you have? I'm guessing you are after cheap
gear.

Contact Ken who is in Adelaide at http://www.retallickeng.com.au as he
can make you up a cheap strut and rudder combo for around $100. He
made this setup for me for a boat with a Talon whipper snipper engine

or you could have a look at ebay http://tinyurl.com/2xyqbg

This guy on ebay sells good radio boxes. I think he is from SA too.
