for a surface drive unit and rudder for it, i tried making one but had
handling trouble. It's got a husky 225 b/c 2st engine and flex drive.
also would like servo box 4 it..if any if on getting one in australia

gravity.

What sort of budget do you have? I'm guessing you are after cheap
gear.

Contact Ken who is in Adelaide at http://www.retallickeng.com.au as he
can make you up a cheap strut and rudder combo for around $100. He
made this setup for me for a boat with a Talon whipper snipper engine

or you could have a look at ebay http://tinyurl.com/2xyqbg

This guy on ebay sells good radio boxes. I think he is from SA too.
