            You may be disappointed with the speed, as that is a big hull. You will need a lot of battery juice and very good ESCs and the motors may not cut, it might work on lower KV motors and 8S, prop selection etc.

                        Martin was saying to make sure you have some external antenna as the hull will block the signal, some 2.4 ghz systems have a small antenna on the receiver, it would slide right up into the red tube on your boat.

                          I will also follow this build with interest! Cool rudder that. How would the servo set-up for that look? With the Hobbyking 180's and a decent servo, this would work out to be an expensive build...

                            It looks like the boat has a 115mm rudder on it...very small for a boat that size. An upgrade in rudder in probably a good idea. Do you know that you can buy just that hull there too? Sometimes it's best to buy just the hull if you plan on upgrading it anyway. The motors will likely need to be mounted in a different place if you end up upgrading the power system.

                              Keith, what rudder would you recommend for a pull / pull setup?
