Hi again
I'm starting to build what I call "mini azipod".
Technically it's made of lower part of 8hp outboard leg (the gearbox part) and vertically mounted inboard electric motor.
I have 3pcs if Russain made "Veterok 8M" outboard motors in parts, with set of new props.
All I have to do, is to fabricate vertical carrier tube with motor flange at the end, and new, longer motor shaft with spline at end.
Any suggestions for motor choice? I was eyeballing Turnigy "100cc" RC motors, but those seem to be quite ineficcient...
