I like what you're doing with it.
Seeing as this is a bitsa and it doesn't have to conform to any strict rules you can do you're own thing with it. As for a tell tale you can make it as big as you like. It's a bitsa after all.....no rules.
How will you mount a fuel tank onto this creation?
Might i make a small suggestion before you get carried away with a custom made prop.
Why don't you use a conventional 102 gearbox and pumphousing on the bottom of this. The gear ratios might be a bit more up your street for what you want to do with this, coupled with a 102 prop of your choice it's all tried and tested components so there's less guess work involved.
Although i applaud your work so far with a steel prop i feel you might be flogging a dead horse, BUT if you can get it all to work well enough than i think we should applaud you further still.
I admire anybody that can fabricate anything for a specific purpose, even if the materials being used aren't quite what we're all used to.
Give the guy a chance and see what happens eh.
