Message-ID: Hi All. Could anyone give me a hand with this? I'm at the stage where I need to choose motors. I am thinking I would like to go for something like 55Lb 24v. I want to make motors in proper cans. I have\had an idea to modify a minn kota or similar. However, I am thinking that it will be easier just to buy motors and make the rest. I dont really know where to start with choosing a motor. I know I need one that is: direct drive (ie no reduction gearbox) DC 24v (possibly) Produce about 55lb thrust. I know there are loads of variables on choosing the correct one. Does anyone have any pointers or links or any help to get me started?
