i've just decided to try using a drill motor from a dewalt instead since one motor seems like it'll give plenty of power. As far as mechanical or electrical speed controllers i want to be able to brake and reverse the motor so i can stick with my 2 channel radio
i'm probably going to end up buying a victor because i know they are reliable and i can use it with a single drill motor or the 2 fischer prices and i'll be able to use it for other things.

i'm wondering what i'll need for batteries will 1 stick pack be enough for a decent runtime or should i wire 2 in parallel?

I'm doing this because 1. my engines is unreliable
2. i have some motors sitting around and want to explore the electrical side of things

so if i can find a mechanical speed controller that has breaking and reverse and smooth operation i could use that

thanks,
aren

p.s sanddrag do you think the novak rooster would work for the drill motor?
