Well, since much of the dodgy RC gear supplied in Chinese toy boats is probably best suited to the bin anyway, what you now have is an opportunity to upgrade your boat with some nice reliable hobby-grade gear.

Do you know much about the motors fitted to your boat? For example, how many turns are they, and how many amps do they draw?

Perhaps a photo or two and some measurements would help us to suggest a suitable rudder?
