    Replace motor, esc, and battery aswell, transmitter too. I'll give you a list of the items I used. My boat flies in my pool. It slides around the sharp turns. Very fun

      I did an upgrade with a ADS300xL Water cooled Brushless Outrunner 3000kv 300W motor -Part #ADS300XL, Turnigy 30A BEC Waterproof/watercooled ESC- Part #9020000031-0, Propellor--32mm dia, 3 blade 1.7 Pitch for shaft size 3.25mm, Part #D32P17D18 X3, Battery--Lipo 2200 mah, 7.4 volt (2 cell) 30-40 c, I also mounted another water intake on the other side of the sponson in the rear, opposite to the factory one for extra coolin to the esc. Never overheats. Parts from Hobby King, fyi.
      For the motor to fit, I cut away the existing plastic motor mount and glued a custom mount I made outta aluminum. I can make another if someone is interested. 15.00 does it. My charger kicks but, Wanna run for Pinks? Ill attach a few pics later on.. Dyno :)

          You cannot use the stock remote because the esc has its own receiver built in. If you don't change the factory esc, you cannot upgrade the motor because the motor is brushed. Your plans are to go to s brushless right?

            Why don't you just put a larger battery in it and have fun with it to be simpler. A 2200mah 7.4 volt. Turnigy pack is the manufacturer. The last post with all the parts I used is listed, order them and I'll help you along the way. Dynodan
