His main claim to fame seems to be that he wants to designs and
manufacturers a motor to meet the exact requirement of hull and
propeller which means that he is going to either design and stock a
large number of different size and capacity motors or do exactly what
he complains the big companies do - have a few standard sizes and pick
the closest. A custom designed motor is going to cost several
multiples of what an off the shelf motor does.


My neighbor has a racing parts shop with a complete of NC machine
tools. He could do one custom prop as cheaply as a hundred.
