There used to be an OB maker or two that bolted the rudder fin on the side of the leg. It's something I haven't seen in a long time. What is the down side or up side of doing this?

It has come to my attention that the Picco 12, and possibly others, have a 6mm sg crank shaft versus the common 7mm sg. The conversion flywheels that I make are all made 7mm. I've found a solution to fitting the SG flywheel to a 6mm shaft. You can order some brass metric tubing from Mcmaster...

These fly wheels are for converting your .12 - .21 R/C car engines with SG crank shafts for marine use. The pully groove is 1/4" wide so they will except all the standard starting belts. They are $10.00 USD + shipping. Thank you for looking.

I haven't updated my website with this info yet but I will catch up soon. These are the motor mounts that are currently availlable from solingerrc.com. This is the .12 rev B mount. Fits the JAE12 along with many other boats. I have machined down the profile some so it will fit in a narrower...

:lol:

What excacly causes hooking. I'm looking for the procession of events leading up to it as well. Thank you.

What does the cavitation plate do on a model out board engine? I'm just pondering if it is needed for boat control or to spare other boats from the prop.

This is an announcement for my new Solinger Hardware web site. In it you will find information and pricing on my current line up of R/C boat hardware and some photos showing it's use. Come on in and have a look. :) Thank you solingerrc.com

I just wanted to announce that I now have a web site. In the web site you will find details about the current hardware line up and boat photos showing it's use. Thank you solingerrc.com

Anyone running one of the Thunder Tiger - Bandit 3.5 tunnel hulls? I'm just wondering if it's as good as, about the same or better than the TS2.

Will the nitro fuels melt the blue/pink foams? I would like to use some to box in my fuel tank.

What are your opinions and thoughts on rigger noses. Should they be blunt or sharp? Any theorys?

For Sale, 3 hardware sets. This is a new design for .21-.45 hydro. You will receive all that you see in this picture. The strut is bored thru 1/4" in diameter and bushed to 3/16". Instead of using lock nuts and washers on the inside of the transom I've made bolting plates for...

How consistant is the output voltage on lipo cells from cell to cell? Will there be "Magic" cells with a little higher output, or less internal resistance? My understanding is that lipo cells have proven to be consistant and won't give advantage from one pack to another like selected sub C's...

Just taking a survey. This is more for the hydro runners but any information is good. Between straight and tapered edge rudders, which type of rudder do you preffer and why?

This may seem obvious to most but it's not clear to me. Lets say I go out and buy a new .21 engine. I take care to break it in properly. Now I want to run 60% nitro fuel. Can I just poor in the nitro, adjust the pipe length, tune the needle, and go? Or, do I need to do modifications to the...

I was chewing on the idea of making a carborator for my .12 size boat engines. My question is: for the purpose of boat racing is a low speed needle worth putting in? I have an older OPS 45 engine and it doesn't have a low speed needle. It works fine. What marine engines come with single needle...
