Upgrading plastic prop, Ripmax Carlson tug
Hi all, newbie here humbly looking for help and guidance 🙏
I recently rediscovered an old rc boat I bought quite a few years back, a plastic, RTR ripmax Carlson tug, quite a basic small boat, but still pleasing to run for an amateur like me.
However, I am now looking to upgrade it slightly if possible.. Ive read changing the plastic prop to brass is a good start, but I have no idea how to select the correct replacement, can anybody point me in the right direction please? Also, does anybody know if it's possible to fit a kort nozzle to it?
All help appreciated, and suggestions for further upgrades to, I'm hoping to paint it and add details to a more realistic finish also.
I would attach some pics, but until I get 10 posts im currently unable.
Looking forward to any replies 🙏 Jason
