Any motor suggestions for a scale 51" x 13" displacement hull with twin 45mm handed 3 bladed props?
I don't know the all up weight, as it hasn't been in the water yet to see the amount of ballast that it needs.
I'd prefer not geared (or toothed belt etc), as I would like to try and build the motors into some scale engines (so running cool - or stone cold - would be nice).
I've got a couple of 12-18v Buhlers which are very quiet, but the wires running into them seem awfully thin, and any number of unmarked 3 pole industrial Johnsons (I'm guessing the ones with the can about 7cm in length are 700 equivalents) but again no voltage markings.
It just seems to me that 540/600 types don't seem man enough and the 900's are a bit of an overkill - but I have no evidence for this.
Any of you knowledgable people want to chip in?
Cheers
Lance
