Thanks for the invite Ron. I am a airplane guy. I picked the boat up on a whim. I paid under $50 for the boat and radio. There are a few guys in the airplane club that run boats also. They have a pond somewhere they use. And that is one reason I have not really been into boats, where to run them. I had a chance to pick up 18 powered hydro but after viewing a video I decided it just took up too much room. What would I do, just do a search for brushed speed controller/
