RE: Help me identify this?
Nick... best advise I can give is to take your time with this project... Over the years I've flown everything R/C from 1/2 A to 1/4 scale... Heli's... Cars... You name it. I enjoy them all, but I respect the boats the most. I don't know if I enjoy the challenge (or frustration), but I find the boats "by far" the hardest to set up. Boats are truly a different beast. Since you don't have a RTR all the setup is left to you... I almost "promise" that there will be issues to overcome as you get this up and going. You are now just finding a few... Hull type, prop height... but wait till it hits the water... Prop size, prop angle, tabs, maybe a hopper tank... and so on. Just work out one thing at a time, and move on to the next if need be. There are A LOT of good people here willing to share their advise and experience. You have my email... ask away. I may not always have the answer, but someone here will.
