Good morning, I need some advise on powering a 1:24 size Elco 80 Ft PT Boat.
Two driven propeller shafts, Light weight construction, hopefully under 4kg displacement. Scale top speed will be fine so long as it planes like to originals.
From your experience i would appreciate some info:
1. Propeller size 2. Required Motor size (Brushless preferred) 3. ESC size for Motor 4. Battery size 5. Anything else I should know
Appreciate your time, the knowledge in this club is amazing. Thanks, Steve
