Hi, I have kept safely and replaced the old IC set up in my 1960's Aerokit Sea Commander with a modern electric system. Unfortunately, Iโm not sure that I was given the right advice and although the boat runs ok, it is slow, only reaching what I would call a scale โriver-cruisingโ speed. I would like it to be capable of a bit more (without reaching โracingโ speed) and wondered if anybody can advise me on a more suitable engine/battery/controller configuration?
I am currently using an MFA Torpedo 500 motor powered by a VP 3700 7.2v 3700mAh battery pack through a Fusion Aquapower 128 (128A max continuous current) controller.
Any pointers will be gratefully welcomed.
