Hi Richard welcome to the group. You need to speak with boatman, he's our resident remote control ship guy, well he's the one that springs straight to mind. Great guy and im sure he'll be able to help

Hi Richard
welcome aboard. As Mick says, look up Boatman aka Chris. He is very experienced at this sort of thing.

I would think that any two channel Radio will do the job. One for motion and one for steering. If you want more to happen, you will normally need one channel per function.

Need to ask If you wanted a 1/35 scale MTB why not buy the Italeri kit and convert that?
