    What kind of motor(s) are you running?
    If you have one larger motor runny both shafts go bigger. If two small motors go smaller.

    Two motors or one, the 25A ESC will be fine. Those vac-u-fletcher motors draw very little current.

    that little one that Phil recommends handles it well and costs about $10. easy to waterproof and 3 of us used them last NATS all week.
