Transmission / Propeller Rotation
These transmissions are full power reversing transmissions, allowing a standard (LH rota-
tion) engine to be used for both propeller rotations. Propeller rotation (output shaft rotation)
is determined by shift cable attachment at the remote control. Be sure to use correct rotation
propeller and shift cable hook up for direction desired.
