depending on your set up  i did post on the other thread ( spearfish requirements ) a week or two ago a full set of dimensions for fitting both the propshafts and rudders through the hull , my own models are twin shaft , & the motor/s are fitted in the same position as they would be on a full size fairey huntsman 31 / spearfish

Thats great thanks...

is the 30mm from propshaft to hull skin measured from the centre of the propshaft or the top? my proptube is 8mm in diameter so its a 4mm difference

I thought so but just wanted to double check
The precident instructions are a little sparse when it comes to the prop shaft install

note , my shafts are much shorterthan the original precedent recomendation , my motors are below the open cockpit , ive opened  the section behind the air scoops on the cabin sides and made some internal ducting which forces a small amount of air down towards the motors ,
