46'' Vintage RAF Crash Tender Re-do.

I bought this old Vosper Crash Tender a short while back and am hoping (time permitting) to get it as accurate as I can to the original boat. it is a fairly solid boat and had RC stuff installed when I bought it but I don't have a clue what the motor is and what battery setup to go for. Firstly, I aim to paint it and try to get some scale fittings for it as it is without. Although I have done a fair bit of plastic modelling in the past, the RC stuff is all new to me, so any help/advice that anyone can give me would be very welcome indeed.
I will post pictures as I progress.

Original RC stuff

These are pictures of the giblets that came with my boat. I will see how it runs with this stuff first but will need to know what battery to get for this. I will then see how well she runs before changing things. Help me please! 😎

Starting with the Painting.

Just starting to work on the hull painting.

Stickers are on!

Vinyl stickers went on easy and hopefully, in about the right place.

46'' Vintage RAF Crash Tender Re-do.

Just had It's first run today at Fleetwood. Initially went well then changed 7.2v 2000mAh to a 9.6 4600mAh battery then went very well but ended up blowing a fuse and had to wait 25 mins until It blew onto a lee shore. Now have a small hole In the side of the hull where It hit the Island for my troubles. Smaller prop went on 45x and things seem fine again. 3rd run tomorrow at Fleetwood with a 40 prop and speed controller adjusted. Video's to follow and I have to thank the members of Fleetwood model boat club In despatches for fantastic help and expertise, they were brilliant! 😛
