Hi, I am a new member from Canada,and I have some questions.I am building the Fairmount Alpine kit, and being new to this particular hobby I am hoping somebody can help me with the propulsion/electrical. First I am using two bow thruster(Raboesch) #4108-20,4108-04.Also recommended where 2 Raboesch brushed motors #109-51 RM510 TRQ 7,2v.Could you recommend a Speed controllers for the Bow thrusters and Propeller motors? What about a Battery to power everything? Lipo or lead acid? I am upgrading my model from a list I got from the internet as follows Shaft ø4 L=236mm M4 Brass Propeller 50-R-4bl-M4 Brass Propeller 50-L-4bl-M4 Nylon Coupling 13x32 mm Brass Insert 4,0 mm for shaft Brass Insert 3,2mm for Motor Vibr. Absorbers 10x10 mm M4x10 Brushed Motor Blue RM510 TRQ 7,2V The upgrade list came from the web, and motor recommendation from Raboesch. Cheers Mike Enclosed are some pics of my process so far. Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Previously I have been involved in several different hobbies and now I have taken up boat building hobby.

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955.
