    Running with sheer pin instead of the clutch assembly calls for a minor change to pin
    in drive hub…a shorter pin and a spring that will fit into groove in drive hub to retain pin.
    There is a second hole in prop shaft to accept a sheer pin to engage notches in prop/
    Prop shaft is a hold over from models before adoption of clutch.
    I would keep an eye open for another propeller and a clutch as having a spare prop is
    always a good idea. Clutch mostly avoids having to do on the water repairs.

    to engage slot in prop hub.
    I suggest a brass sheer pin instead of steel,
