how much are you willing to spend?

you could go brushed or brushless...

for brushed...a 700SC on 12-16 cells using a jeti navy 600 or Rc-Hydros victory esc would work good....although prop size will usually depend on how many cells you use with this motor, it would be best to start with a 40mm prop and work your way up from there...

for a brushless setup, a feigao 9XL on 12-14 cells would work good....you could use a hydra 120esc, but if you dont want to spend too much, a hextronic 120 amp esc will do good as well...its just that united hobbies isnt renoun for their customer service....as with the props...40mm and work your way up until you find the right one...

props are the same as the first link i showed you

you could also use the supervee 27 motor/esc combo

as long as you build light, you could probably get good speed out of that too....

thanks, thanks for the exact specs. and sites info you are the best,thanks but its time to go do some shopping!!! the wife will be back soon.thanks again[sm=lol.gif][sm=wink_smile.gif][sm=thumbs_up.gif]

Without completely gutting the hull and reinforcing it, those set-ups simply won't fit!
