Hello, I have built a ton of big Airplanes in my life but never a boat, I bought the Happy Hunter, and I wanted to see if someone out there could help me with some info on what type of Radio I should use. This tug is going to be very scale with servos running the crane, bow thruster, Moters, smoke, speed controllers, anchor, sound, the whole thing. I guess what I am hoping is that someone could take a minute and tell me virtually everything I need for this. I am afraid of purchasing something that isn't the right voltage or something like that. So, a list of everything I need that all go together would be great, I know it's a lot to ask, but I am at a standstill on the tug until I figure this out.

Also I see that some people have used batteries form handheld drills to run their boats, Is this something I should look at? Thanks
