RC equipment query

Hi Allen, I use a Fly Sky FS-TH9X 8 channel 2.4 GHz transmitter. And by purchasing a few receivers you can program different boats and functions so you can use the one Transmitter for several boats. So as you say you will be using 2 channels but with this system you can grow to using more channels. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-9x-9ch-transmitter-w-module-ia8-receiver-mode-1-afdhs-2a-system.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google_gb_shopping&countrycode=GB&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIuYLm443R8AIVgQsGAB3xZg-MEAQYAyABEgIgpvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&___store=en_us You can purchase this system from other places just look around.

Battery issues

Thanks I have two but both use twin 8 channel receivers and fully independent port and starboard control. The Speedline model shown has modified speed line jet drives so they don't leak and can be lubricated 😂 My other which is in my Harbour and is a MBD semi scratch build that uses jet drives developed by OceanWorks in Hong Kong with my help. Far superior product 😎

any body recognise this boat.

Well Jim, I searched as many places I can think of but the boat is still a mystery to me. Although it looks like a ready to run boat as opposed to being a kit, I have a couple in my collection but they are from the 60's and 70's, yours looks to be probably late nineties onwards. Are there any makers marks, logos or numbers anywhere inside. It's a lovely looking boat whatever it is, cheers Colin.
