    I thought about gas but I have had some people complain about my nitro boats. So electric is the way to go plus its fast in my opinion. I might just repower or build a mean machine with 2 tfl outboards.
    24 R/C vehicles and still counting...What budget?

      There is no reason this would not work just fine, and would be a good set up. You could go with the Swordfish 300 esc instead if you preferred, not much price difference.

        Thanks for the info Peter. I have had good results on the swordfish escs. I think i have had a change of plans though. If i am going to spend a large sum of money on a large boat why not make it something unique and different? I saw the twin XCAT (1400mm version) from mhz. I don't see to many of those. I think i will build that one. Do you have any suggestions for power on that hull I was thinking maybe 4092's 1400 kv on 5s2p (10000mah) 240am swordfishes each?

          gas boat with a muffler and an internal stinger in the pipe is going to be pretty quiet compared to the buzzy nature of nitro boats....but yeah, i hear you on not wanting to annoy people.

              if i brought my gas boat out and pulled the muffler off, no one would ask if yours were gas.... a professionally ported g230pum on an external stinger aluminum pipe is pretty obnoxiously loud once it gets on the pipe....LOL
