    HI Dave just a quick note the setup I am taking for my model is one single 20amp esc bec but I need a bit of advice on which size battery to use I mostly have lipo's 11.1v 2200mah and 7.2v 1800mah ni-mh are any of these suitable I'm not sure about the ni-mh because it is only 7.2v as you know I'm running 2 6v brushed motors.If you could advise which battery I would be most grateful.

    HI dave posted pic of the inside of model thats if I have done it right on the motors there is a small label on each one with
    type 6v
    J leer ca, 0.9A
    J max ca, 7.0A
    now wether these are brushed motors which proprobably they are I wouldnt of thought they are brushless it does look to be a fairly old setup. Would it be ok to install a 27mhz 2 channel receiver and also what battery would it take looking at the battery well it looks like they used a 12v square ever ready battery but I may be wrong. I took what you said about the esc did you say to give each motor its own esc and connect to a mixer to the receiver. Any how let me know if you receive the pic.

    Thanks ray.

    HI all Ive just comissioned a graupner weisel model r/c boat which I believe was built In 1975 the thing I would like to know Is which esc to use and also which receiver to use the only Items which are Installed are the 2 motors which are both rated at 6 volt each. I should Imagine there Is a 12 volt square battery to power the motors the setup does seem a little outdated I must admit I am a newby at model boats I am generally Into r/c aircraft so If anybody has any Ideas please let me know..

    Thanks flyingfox
