Hello everyone, I’m a new member here in the forum, and a beginner in the model boats world, so probably I’m gonna do a lot of dumb questions.
So let’s start, currently I’m building my first boat which is the offshore tug “Alp Striker”. I didn’t used any scale, I was just looking to some pictures and doing the “job”.
I made the hull model with foam and then I finished it with fibreglass.
Boat dimensions:
Length: 1.3 meters
Width: 35 cm
Hull Weight: 15kg +/-
So I really need your help with the electric parts, I have already something in mind which is the following:
- 2 high torque motors which I planned them to work independently;
- 2 esc;
- 2 batteries for both motors and esc’s;
-1 servo for 2 rudders;
-1 bow thruster;
-1 esc for the bow thruster (if need it);
-1 battery for the bow thruster (if need it);
-Radio with receiver (I was thinking the Spektrum dx6e, I really like it, just don’t know if it fits in this build);
So what I really don’t know it’s the combination off products, could someone help me with that, which motor should i use, which esc, battery, etc.
Every kind of help is welcome. Thanks.
