Planing to use 2 x RCM and MHZ gearbox. I think I'll use a Blata Rep or similar as motor.
There is two gearboxes from MHZ, can I use the one that makes the drives rotate in the same direction? Or will there be problem with propwalk?
If I choose the other one, then one of drives will counter rotate, would it be a problem with the propnut coming loose?
Regards,
Robban

Hello Robert. Interesting build, and in sweden no less. Have no real experiences to help you, but I can think of several reasons to go counter rotating. Guessing prop nut will be no problem or a solvable problem.

MH$ has a box with stand offs already configured for the "Z" drive and RCM drive. Use it and your task will be significantly easier.
You will need square collets for the gearbox - everything else will fit fine (I have mounted both RCM and S6 drives to the same setup - no change to mount).
