Hello. New here. This is my 1st post.
I just bought an old R/C Boat Kit on ebay for 40 bucks. Anyway, I want to set this up with a really, really fast motor. Any suggestions?
This is the boat. It has a "3:1 reduction transmission":

I'm not too familiar with boats. Just planes and cars with past experience. I was looking at tower and figured a high RPM Trinity or other R/C car motor might do well. Like:

Do you agree? The only "boat" engines I saw at tower are cheap 540s that don't appear to be very powerful.
Also, what ESC do you suggest?
Thanks for any input!!!
