The funny thing is this has been up on ebay off and on for the past 5 years with no bites :-) I'm not sure what my father was asking though. 

Thanks for the advice, One of the things I'm trying to understand is if I have 4 motors, can I run them off of 1 speed control and 1 large battery? or do I need 4 ESC's and 4 batteries... There is certainly room for the latter since the gas tank compartments would be empty.
