      RS-540 motor on 2S/1500mAh
      It does okay..... for a $50 used boat.... and it came with Tx, 2 packs and a balance charger. :)
      I might be able to squeeze a small 2S/2200mAh in it.... as soon as I get my hands on some EC3 connectors. ;)

      There are a few parks around the city with some large ponds. I'll get there soon enough.
      I'm not so sure about the 3S right off... by what I've read so far, it might cook the ESC. Further study is needed.:cool:

      Oh heck...... Don't get me started. I'll end up putting a radio and servos in a Sea-Doo or something. :p
      .... actually, I had a crazy idea of making a ski-drone out of a Sea-Doo or Waverunner by making a combination tow rope/control cable.... wouldn't that be a trip to see a guy water skiing behind a driverless watercraft! :D
