Ok-I'm preparing to build a RC Marine Designs T5 and have some questions about which materials to use for various parts of it. So here goes:
1.Radio Box Seals-Bru-line #100 or another manufacturer? I'd like some nice effective seals for the radio box, I was also told G+M Models makes them but I've been unable to find them online. Can someone suggest a nice radio box linkage seal?
2.Rudder Linkage/Throttle Linkage-SIG #SH654 or one of Dave Brown's? Would carbon fiber be better than a metal linkage? Any suggestions here would be helpful. What would be best to hook up the throttle with? Would be standard clevis be better or should I use the ball type that snap on?
Props-here is a list of props (all Octura) X455/3, X457, X457/3, X460, X462
Can someone narrow it down to maybe one or two that would be best? I'll be running a CMB 67 Greenhead engine but I'm not sure which pipe yet.
Pipes-I've asked around a bit but I like to try and get as much input as possible, so what would be your guys' suggestions?
Header-10 degree header is what I should be using, is this a seperate piece than what is on the engine itself? If so, can someone suggest where to get one? Thanks.
Stuffing Tube-Not sure how long of one I'll need but where can I get these?
