I icked up a mean machine 18 on E-bay awhile ago. I'm thinking of converting it to fast electric. This project is budgeted at aout $300. I would like to use the original running gear. Is this feasable? If so what size brushless motor and batteries would I need. It would have to be NIMH batteries because using Li-poly on a boat this size would go way over budget. would I need to do such a conversion?
Thanx
