I built a Vintage RC PBY Catalina. I made it the earlier PBY 5 version which doesn’t have landing gear, so it a flying boat only. I used 2 OS 61 engines for power. This made it really top heavy. I don’t want to put a ton of led in the fuselage or hull in this case, so I thought electric motors and big battery’s in the hull would be a better option. My question is what electric motors and speed controls should I use in place of the OS 61’s. I’m old school and haven’t done much with electric motors. Any Thoughts?

Thanks that helps a lot.👍

I just thought of another question. How long of a wire extension can you use from the esc to the motor?
