hi all you elec guys,
i need some advise concerning a first-time fast electric boat. one of my cousins is interested in getting a boat, and due to noise regulations FE would be better than nitro. what we're looking for is something low-maintenance [brushless right?], relatively cheap, around 450$, good for sport running [so no hydros, im sure he'll want good turning both ways] and pretty resilient.
im thinkin' maybe a Bandit El Lobo with brushless motor and Fuller hardware? would that be in the right price range? [remember, this is including a radio setup!] how do BBY scat cats handle with brushless power/speed? my only experience with FE has been 6-cell, stock motor type stuff. i can probably help him install everything the first time, but after that he's gonna be on his own....
any advice or comments would be appreciated.
Joe
