Post subject:  ?? ST Fin Adjustments ??

I have done a few searches and didn't find what I was looking for. Could someone point me to a thread or explain the looser or tighter adjustments on the adjusting screw? What is the goal when making that adjustment?
Thanks, Roger

Hi NHE,

I will be in your neck of the woods with my Revo in approx 3 weeks. Will know more when witee returns home with the cast in mud schedule. :D

As to the fin adjustment, tight for speed, loose for power. Thats all there is to it. I keep mine as tight as they go. Assures even leach tension on both fins. As to peddling them, it takes a fet pushes to get going but the cruising speed and effort are noticably good.

My friend with the Big A has his set loose for power. At the same prf my boat is just a bit faster. lol

Val

I have a couple really nice places to show you when you are up here and more to suggest.

Thanks for the info, the parts catalogue said adjust for speed or torque but I wasn't sure which way is which. I think would rather have the speed. I'm not real concerned with hole shots but long runs (like Jamaica Bay) into the wind.

Thanks again, Roger
