Thank you so much. Prop options are just what I was looking for. Got same Amazonister stage 1. Never thought the #0 or #1 would fit. Seems like not enough threats, but now I'll give it a try. Also good info on not over tightening prop. Don't want to take off that housing again.😅
skip too 1:17 and 5:52, for prop swap info. how too convert too 2blade. mud-skipper' has best deals and props.. they do haver the adapter also, but check what style prop setup you have.. The amazon and other "twister clones, have a M16X2.0 thread on the shaft. W/ a M8 for set screw. some of the larger 15hp tister setups, and the real twisters, I believe have a spline shaft prop.. Im doing alota experimenting and homebrew stuff lol. do prop mods and other mods at your own risk.. These engines will blow up if you try and run them for long periods of time ungoverneded above 4k rpm.
no, i think for some reaoson there were only a few with transom mounts.. they sold them all now ive only seen the flat mount.. mite have too fabricate something out of the flat' mount.. show a local welder what you want.. cut the bracket you got and make an transome mount out of it.. there mite be some for sale somewere.. but i noticed that when i bought myne.. I looked at pics on amazon, and made sure it was transom mount.. I got lucky i guess.. if not i was prepared too make my own.. or mount it on a pate in the back.. the further back you can get this motor, the better top speed youll get when you go too a 2 blade prop.. also, the width of the boat, and were the' water meats after the boat goes threw water, at certain speeds vs. were that prop goes can affect your speed, and performance.. Also the trim height you gotta play with and kinda set it for the boat, the weight, the prop, the power.. theres other guys that have it down too a chart/science on here...
What size shaft does the “twister” clone take ? I’m trying to find an electric start 212cc that will fit it. What I am seeing is that most of the motors out there have a 20mm (.78”) shaft with varying lengths. Will a 20mm shaft fit the twister clone ?
Hi, great video. Try to build a small boat 2,75m x 0,8m with 13kg or less (like thailand boat with plywood 4mm and foam, there is a "plan" for rc mini long tail, see pinrest The R ) . See at grabcad testandoxeon some propeller an print and reinforce with fiber or carbon an test.
if i had the time..sure lol... I did think about building a sort of boat.. Or just goin too a 15hp true- long tail.. On this little 10ft/30' wide boat. thing is.. this boat works great in the shallow rocky river, on plane I can get threw like 3" of water on the river.. long as I dont stop lol.. The flat bottom and aluminum hold up well against rocks.. and its so lite i can carry it myself over my head if i had too... but i know what you mean.
yup.. go too gopowersports, etc. any of the go-kart racing parts places.. these are popular. just send them a pic of your engine if your not sure,, but yea the engine is a non hemi gx200/212cc? lol its confusing yet simple. The guys on ebay, diyperformance1 ? sold me a cam and they knew. also a flywheel.. the other stuff like air cleaner, throttle, non gov, is off amazon.ebay. theres tons of choices.. I dont like this govener delete kit. it works put its crappy.. I got a PD22? kiehn style carb im gonna put on this month.. I hear the carb really wakes them up.. The props are kK props ? but the black ones I (thin perform best all around) got from mudskipper, 1-2 from ebay.,.
hey guys. this video was thrown together quick. check my other videos for longer versions on certain clips from this combo video.. also, dont forget too change you oil regular.. Its only like a quart.. Even if its only penzoil or quakerstate, your choice... Keep the oil clean, and newer, is more important then anything ime.. you can run amsoil, or lucas if you want.. it is worth it if you do a rod and internals. (these things make oil dirty quick) A magnetic drain plug or stick a magnet on the plug, That helps these engines.. And also hi-rpm for long times. they wont holdup... I can get this too stay at 6500 rpm on water with a smaller prop 6.5"... But, i know itll blow if i keep it there for 30mins strait.... So, I go with a bit larger prop, 7", or 6.5 hi-speed, Too bring the rpms down too around 4800 on plane.. and still hit 18mph.. and ots happy, and im content with getting too fishing spots i never could before..
its not much heavy then a air cooled 4hp outboard.. I think its 58lbs? it feels heavy and awkward when you try too lift it.. if you get the deck plat mount and mount it you would be alrite i think.. you could also just get the twister setup... and put a 80cc 3hp gx clone engine on it.. the 3-7hp honda clone engines are same patterns and shaft size im prettysure... and a 3hp is only like 99$ they only weigh like 20lbs or w,e.. I put this setup on a flatback ghanoe, and it held it no prob. but i didn't run it too far cause ghanooe had leaks all over.. lol
just look up boat motors, surface drive motors.. y our better off goin with mudskipper brand i think they now sell twisters on amazon. they are built better a bit more money but parts and support for the, is better. but they are on ther they come and go. you gotta keep looking searchin for boat motors etc till you see this design.. even better, look up google search cks longtail surface drives. ther in Thailand but the prices are awesome. but shipping can tale a bit..
Thanks for the info, yea I think I’ll save up for the mudskipper kit, I’m not that good with tools so making adaptations like you did won’t be easy to me, still your video rocks it’s very informative there aren’t people posting on this clone engines and kits, keeep it up sir
doesn't need too much.. if you use marine grease.. too much and it pushes it all out all over the place.. But the prop comes off regular threads.. then you gotta take off the tail coupler, that is left handed threads or opposite.. and yea, that stuff is tight!.. but a bit of heat from a map gas torch, and bigger pipe wrenches, make sure you go correct way.. you'll see its real simple once that tail coupler is off. I wouldn't try too pull the flex shaft out al the way.. just pull it out a bit, put some grease on it put it back together... Or while you got it there you could drill and tap the the tube add a greas fitting.. ime the upper part of the shaft needs grease more then the tail, by the prop (since the engine heat, gravitty, shaft spinning etc) - down by the prop, you can just move shaft out, pull 1x cover and bearing out and put some grease in that coupler, and put it back together.. -That tail coupler stays cool, and in water, so a bit of grease every 8-12 hours should be fine.. I was gonna drill and tap the tail coupler' and put larger zerk fitting in it.. but the grease always seem too run down from the top.. and or the grease I added, when i did prop change, was fine when I checked it 6hours later. Its pretty simple setup.. Not much too go wrong..
i think it was Gdrasuya10 Outboard, (196cc 7.5hp?) but i bought mine when there was only 4 left a year ago, that had transom mount.. so now what you see is what you get i guess..
Just ordered mine thanks for the great review and in depth info.

yup. no prob... yea i didn't think so either, but they do..(well they did on myne lol) just only use 1 washer ime.. yea that housing is on there!

Do you have a link for that clone kit? Everything I'm finding doesn't have a transom mount.
no, i think for some reaoson there were only a few with transom mounts.. they sold them all now ive only seen the flat mount.. mite have too fabricate something out of the flat' mount.. show a local welder what you want.. cut the bracket you got and make an transome mount out of it.. there mite be some for sale somewere.. but i noticed that when i bought myne..

Do you happen to remember how long your setscrews are?

Hello, How come can your prop not be completely submerged. Mine needs to be deep before it bits, can you help me ?

Where have you been buying parts? I assume anything that fits a GX200 will fit the GB200? I have the same setup and its pretty fun
yup.. go too gopowersports, etc. any of the go-kart racing parts places.. these are popular. just send them a pic of your engine if your not sure,, but yea the engine is a non hemi gx200/212cc? lol its confusing yet simple.

hey guys. this video was thrown together quick. check my other videos for longer versions on certain clips from this combo video..
also, dont forget too change you oil regular.. Its only like a quart.. Even if its only penzoil or quakerstate, your choice... Keep the oil clean, and newer, is more important then anything ime.. you can run amsoil, or lucas if you want.. it is worth it if you do a rod and internals. (these things make oil dirty quick)
A magnetic drain plug or stick a magnet on the plug, That helps these engines..
And also hi-rpm for long times. they wont holdup... I can get this too stay at 6500 rpm on water with a smaller prop 6.5"... But, i know itll blow if i keep it there for 30mins strait....
So, I go with a bit larger prop, 7", or 6.5 hi-speed, Too bring the rpms down too around 4800 on plane.. and still hit 18mph.. and ots happy, and im content with getting too fishing spots i never could before..
What's the total weight of this thing? I've got a bigger kayak that I want to attach this too, but if it's too heavy might not work.
its not much heavy then a air cooled 4hp outboard.. I think its 58lbs? it feels heavy and awkward when you try too lift it..
if you get the deck plat mount and mount it you would be alrite i think.. you could also just get the twister setup... and put a 80cc 3hp gx clone engine on it.. the 3-7hp honda clone engines are same patterns and shaft size im prettysure... and a 3hp is only like 99$
they only weigh like 20lbs or w,e..
I put this setup on a flatback ghanoe, and it held it no prob. but i didn't run it too far cause ghanooe had leaks all over.. lol
Hi sir could you please tell me the name or brand of the clone to look it up in amazon? or do you have the link? thanks for the vid very informative
just look up boat motors, surface drive motors.. y our better off goin with mudskipper brand i think they now sell twisters on amazon. they are built better a bit more money but parts and support for the, is better. but they are on ther they come and go. you gotta keep looking searchin for boat motors etc till you see this design.. even better, look up google search cks longtail surface drives. ther in Thailand but the prices are awesome. but shipping can tale a bit..

How did you take the transom mount apart in the last pic? I want to grease mine and it doesn’t have zerks
doesn't need too much.. if you use marine grease.. too much and it pushes it all out all over the place.. But the prop comes off regular threads.. then you gotta take off the tail coupler, that is left handed threads or opposite.. and yea, that stuff is tight!.. but a bit of heat from a map gas torch, and bigger pipe wrenches, make sure you go correct way..

Or while you got it there you could drill and tap the the tube add a greas fitting..
ime the upper part of the shaft needs grease more then the tail, by the prop (since the engine heat, gravitty, shaft spinning etc)
- down by the prop, you can just move shaft out, pull 1x cover and bearing out and put some grease in that coupler, and put it back together..
-That tail coupler stays cool, and in water, so a bit of grease every 8-12 hours should be fine.. I was gonna drill and tap the tail coupler' and put larger zerk fitting in it.. but the grease always seem too run down from the top.. and or the grease I added, when i did prop change, was fine when I checked it 6hours later. Its pretty simple setup.. Not much too go wrong..
Do you have a link to where you bought the motor and kit off of Amazon?
i think it was Gdrasuya10 Outboard, (196cc 7.5hp?)
but i bought mine when there was only 4 left a year ago, that had transom mount.. so now what you see is what you get i guess..
If you don,t get a transom mount and have to mess with the props , might just be easier to get original Mudskipper kit and buy an engine.
What size boat?
10 ft.. starcraft or w.e
