Hi fellas !!

Yep new to this here forum and hope you can help.

living in Stoke on Trent I have now been informed that we cannot run any IC engines on council owned water ways. This causes an issue of either going further afield or to convert to electric.

i run an aqua craft v24 with a26cc installed. I also use love my HPI Baja and since they do an electric conversion for something of that size does anyone do an electric set up for a boat ??? Castle creations make the other conversions but can't find one for a marine version.

Can anyone help ??

Hello Gareth

Sorry but I've only just seen your posting and please accept apologies on behalf of the other forum members for not responding earlier. Unfortunately in my experience there is no decent electric conversion for engines of 26cc or larger.

Large electric motors just don't have the power to get big models up to comparable rates of performance.
