    By sheer coincidence almost three years to the day and this toy boat is finally completed. Leopard 3674 2075kv running 4s with 150 amp Turnigy Marine ESC. Prop is merely what I had. The worst part of this build was converting a very old, but sound, ABS toy hull with a submerged drive, fitting a carbon fibre inlay, building a new superstructure and adjusting the rudder and stinger to cope with an approximate 60 degree sloping transom.

            Yes, that turned out great! Now we need to see video.

            I hope you get the ESC issue sorted, by this time you may have to bite the bullet and order a new, non-Turnigy model like Steven’s Raider 150.

              Many thanks. Yes, I am thinking that a Raider may be on the cards, although I just tested it now and it actually worked without having to jog its memory (it has been almost 24 hours since last tested). Simple enough to set the throttle range but a little annoying. I have purchased a 1/10 scale representation of the upper half of a supercharged V8 motor so that will be added to the hatch to finish this boat off (finally).
