    SEAPLANE TENDER, CHANGE OF ESCs
    Re Dougs' comment and recommendation re the Hobbywing ESCs (and the better fwd/rev capabilities) I decided to take a punt and buy a couple to try. Fitted them with a bit of re-wiring and they work very well. The cheapo ones I was using (with fans) were fine but had the jog forward to reverse feature (safety feature for rock crawlers) which was a mild annoyance. Not sure if $18 as against $50 for 2 ESCs is really worth it just for the convenience, but it's done and working.😊 (it's only money, right?)😐 Tanks Doug!😁😊 Also I swapped the sound unit in the MTB for the newer self contained one in the ST, so the ST now has 2 the same and I don't need the extra REC any more (due to the incompatibility between the 2 types ) Another lot of re wiring, but it's much better now and all happiness filled😊. Just have to buy the later
    speaker
    which is much better, (can actually have 2
    speaker
    s on each unit, plus sirens, lights, indicators etc) (only another 20+ wires to fit) JB
