This business of deliveries from China seem to be quite controversial. I try not to order anything if it is specified 'from China', but when I get so called UK suppliers specifying delivery dates a month or so away, I begin to wonder. I'm i …

Hi Doc. The issue might be the postal service from his location, my orders from MBB usually arrive within a couple of days if they are stock items and a extra day of so if I've ordered a 'special' prop-shaft or coupling that needs to be mac …

3 brushless motors on one channel ?
Hi Doug, probably could use just one battery on a power distribution board, that's all they do with drones which commonly have 3-8 motors/ESCs. Makes it a lot simpler and cheaper just having one decent battery. Not sure if the P40 board has …

3 brushless motors on one channel ?
Nobody notice the 'deliberate' mistake? " I also recommend the use of an UBEC to supply the ESCs, disconnect ALL red leads from the plug at the RX. You can then wire the UBEC supply to the ESCs through one switch." That is nonsense of cours …

3 brushless motors on one channel ?
Hi CB, The absolute easiest way to do this, unless you like experimenting with electrics and wiring, has to be to use the P40E motor and rudder mixer board for up to 3 motors from Action Electronics. https://www.componentshop.co.uk/p40e-mar …

There are some useful articles in the 'How to' section of this website on basic wiring for the receiver, ESC and motor. It is also worth looking in the on-site shop as it has a range of fittings for the 1/16th scale Crash Tender. Graham93

Thanks Graham. I saw the video and your boat seems to get up to quite a nice speed, not ridiculously fast and looks like it handles very well. I will see what l can source over here in Australia in terms of motor and ESC. Is there any diagr …

Hi Laurie, If you search the Gallery area of this website for Crash Tender, there is a video showing my boat in action so you can see the speed. The ESC is a Turnigy Marine50. Water cooled 50A rating. The motor draws a little under 20A but …
