I have been into r/c boats for 12 years, back then it was big neo motors as brushless was £££££££ now you can pick up fairly decent boat with brushless for the same price I could get a motor when I first started. I am 29 years old. I like electric as much as nitro I have a top speed 2 with the OS 21xm outboard. run that on 25% nitro duraglow MT fuel
