    That would work just as well if you can't get to the rudders.
    I see Motion has only one spare prop in stock so I hope you don' have to destroy them removing them.
    Who knows when Motion will restock boats and spare parts.

      I think that’s what I am going to do. I have two props showing up today so I’ll be good with that.
      Thanks,
      Rick

        I was able to get the props off with a little heat, they are metal once they were off the rest was easy.

          Hello, I've come across this boat, believe the scale is 1/40? I'm trying to sell, as not an RC Boat person. People keep asking what it has installed, how can I find out without undoing any packaging, all the ties etc are still in place. It's brand new in my eyes, do we know how it comes? Thanks in advance.

              What brand of Bimini top boat these boats do occupy? Do you have any idea about that?

                I do not know, but one well known manufacturer is "sunbrella". A bit expensive. The feds like American made, best quality, and expensive. Good luck. Btw every body, I love the site. All the models are very beautiful and looking forward to participating.

                    Hello: This is my first foray into RC's so I'm sure I'm using the correct lingo, but here goes. Can I use the AUX1 port on the Receiver to power LED lights I want to add? If yes, what type of connector should I use? Thank you in advance for your help.
