I do believe that's a Sea Commander, an Aerokits model.

No sweat😉 Hope it all works out.
BTW: Canabus got me started on brushless last year. He answered my plea for help upgrading my old Sea Scout. Everything he recommended is now fitted and works a treat, with power in reserve. 😊
All the best, Doug 😎

Hi Maorkullen,
kv means rpm per volt applied.
Thus the 1100kv motor does 1100rpm / Volt OFF LOAD!
3639: These 4 digit numbers generally mean diameter and length; i.e. 36mm diameter, 39mm length.
xS means the number of cells, of nominal voltage 3.7V for LiPos.
Thus 3S is a 3 cell battery of nominal 11.1V.
25C is a theoretical measure of maximum short term current the battery can deliver in terms of a multiple of it's nominal capacity in Amp hours.
Thus in this case 5.8 x 25A = 137.5A. But not for long!! and afterwards the battery would most likely be wrecked and useless.🤔
So it's really only a marketing gimmick not to be taken very seriously.
Hope this unravels some of the mystery, cheers Doug 😎

Hello Canabus. Just looked at the motor and battery info you supplied and neither of the specs are available or have been superceded. The problem for me is that I do not understand what all the figures mean. As an old electrical engineer, 1100kv means to me that it is 1100 kilo volts!! I dont think so! Other than being a part number, does 3639 mean anything? Similarly 3S? Lipo 5800mah OK, but 25C? is there a site anywhere which will explain these number to me?

Best regards,

Maorkullen

Hi Morkullen
I suggest a Hobbyking 3639-1100kv 35mm brushless motor with a 60 Amp ESC and a 2 blade 40mm prop.
Battery a 3S Lipo 5800mah 25C will give you more than 1/2 hour.
I had his setup in my 34" Sea commander with very good performance.

I am building the Thornicroft MTB MM337 (again) I last built one many years ago and put a small diesel engine in it at that time.
However, I plan to go all electric R/C on this one and would appreciate advice as to what size, (Make /Model) type of motor could be used. Also which battery pack for the motor. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
