The prop will still be facing backwards just like your suspention hit a bump. but the air cyl will pull it up higher than that. Your drive shaft with the universal joints and the sliding splined shaft will all move to accomodate any position. Now the prop can turn from right to left just as the tire does for steering while the drive shaft powers it. What do you think? I should be able to build this fairly easy.
