          Cobby,

          Dave mentions in the article that he sourced his items from S.H.G. Model Supplies

          **LINK**

          Download their catalogue and you will see that they offer a radio control conversion kit for Snowberry. That will have the items you need. Best to contact them first to ensure that the components are available and get the latest price.

          This is a very popular model for R/C conversion and there are various build logs etc. on the internet if you do a search.

              There is some more information here:

              and here:

              **LINK** where it mentions that the propshaft is 6 inches long.
