Maybe cheaper to buy a new mast than the long drill bit😳
Indeed, and the hassle of trying to drill a 24inch hole straight down.
Anyone have suggestions for something hollow?
My fuselage has two 6mm bolt holes 55mm apart. Trying to be around 85cm tall.
My two cents for what it’s worth😀
If you go back to your original approach you can get out on the water rather than being in your workshop.
External wiring isn’t ideal but that doesn’t mean you can’t foil.
Either cut down your existing 7.25” prop or buy a Flite prop or alternative and get out foiling.
Spend some time looking at all the incredible builds here on the forum and decide from there what your next rig will be.
Thanks for your help. I did order a flite prop as I don’t believe in myself to shave down the prop.
Certainly I’ll give it a go and see what the results are first!
The manufacture did confirm it’s solid 3k carbon fiber, so I guess that’s that.

You will still have to mod the Flite prop a little.
See this thread
I did see that, enlarging hole to 12mm and printing sleeves should be light work I think.
