Default RE: Seamaster 40F

Hi Joe,
Looks and sounds like you guys are the seamaster specialist.I just bought an ACE seamaster arf and I want it to be electric, you went with a rimfire 42-60-600 motor, is that motor more than enough to pull the seamaster around? I want to make sure I have enough power (no marginal power) Also, did you have to lengthen the motor mast in order to accommate a longer prop? Also could you tell me about the rest of the set-up,where you put the esc, batteries, stuff like that.
I have flown r/c for 33yrs. now and, have been racing pylon for the last 20 yrs or so, but I am SO new to electric. I have been flying a mariner 40 for about 4yrs. and am finally convinced that it is not a good flying airplane. I'm getting the impression that the seamaster is a better flying plane, would you agree?
Thanks for any and all info
