1.Engine position - Zenoah 26.
2.Drive system,I'm using M-Boat Rudder & Prop Shaft - Distance between transom and prop.

I think the best person to ask would be Dave Marles at Prestwich Models.

I can check mine at work tomorrow but here's a start:-
1. Engine position; you will move it around until you get the balance point where you want after everything else is mounted in the hull. If I remember correctly I had a balance point at 34% for a full mod 260.
2. Stuffing tube as low as you can get it and offset 4-6mm to starboard, distance transom - drive dog I can't remember off hand but Dave supplied a Marine Specialties strut. Rudder off set 2.5" to starboard.
3. Props, nothing special here, x470, 7016/2, 7016/3, best I had on my Lynx was a 6717/3.

Thank you for the info!

Hi Azli, I have 55mm from the transom to the back of the strut.
The boat is stripped down and I can't check the balance physically but if I read my marks correctly it is balanced at 32%.
Dave did have the setup sheet on his webpage but I see it is now a dead link

Hi Ian,
You mean the CG approx. 32% from transom? Anyway thank you for your good info.

Yes, CG at 32% from the transom ;D

Good luck and enjoy the boat.
