To my fellow racers, I had just posted this question to a few directly, also posted on several boards. I would like to hear from the masses. Richard Konnen here of REK. After 5 plus years it is time for a new version of lower unit. So I am cutting new molds and would appreciate some feed back...

Just wanted to see if there would be an interest in my lower unit made out of a different composite material. My material supplier found some stuff in Denmark that would work for me. It is 23% lighter than what I am using now and the stiffness and strength go up dramatically. Here is the rub...

I drew up a micro rigger. It is in PDF format, when you print, set print settings to page scaling none and check box for paper source from PDF. I printed this right on some material from SIG called Rhino Hide.You could probably try 1/64 ply also. I cut a blank at 8.5 X 14 then printed it and...

OK. After seeing Speed Jr's rigger I have to ask some questions of the group. Motor wise would a 22mm brushless in the 4600 rpm/v work or not enough torque and what would be the best construction materials ( foam, balsa,etc...) Thanks, Richard
