I use two Turnigy 2830 750kv brushless 35amp car type escs 11.1v Lipo and 30mm brass props.
Glad to hear you are using a wattmeter to check the loading. ▲

Yes I will be glass clothing the hull, itโs a process I rather enjoy and something I bring over from my aircraft days.

Always good to hear of different makes of adhesive that others use. in a warm room most of these types of wood glue set very quickly to a hold state, developing full strength over 12 hours.
A far cry from the days of Cascamite! which I recall seemed to take 24hrs, a lifetime when you are 5 years old. ▲

So far so good ๐ I admire your patience.
Thinks! if you are on nights again you can carry on planking (sounds vaguely familiar! Sid James & Kenneth Williams & co? ๐) while twiddling your thumbs waiting for the Russkies to attack๐ Cheers Doug ๐ ▲

Hi Gerry, Iโm possibly not the right person to ask, especially if youโre considering 3 motors? My best advice is to make your own post asking other more experienced boat builders to advise. Iโm fairly new to boats moving over from aircraft.
