Up scaling my first boat.

Hi all! I have recently completed my first scratch built boat. Simple balsa and fibre glass. Really happy with it but id like to scale it up. It measures around 500mm long at the moment, Id like to go to around 800mm long. Just a bit more room to work with, more room for a bigger battery etc. I am wondering if ill need a bigger motor, drive hardware etc. My little one has a 3450kv motor running 3s. Any advice on powering a bigger hull is greatly appreciated. Here's a short clip of the maiden voyage last sunday.

How to splice lights and fan together.

Pretty much as above. Id like to add lights to my son's car. Its already running a fan so I dont have any ports left on the receiver. Is there a way I can run the fan amd lights together on one plug? And tips or hints for the best way to achieve this? Have no problems driving a solder iron. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Calling tools not in the ATC

Hey all. Im running a femco BTM machining centre and try to figure out how to call tools that arent in the ATC. The ATC can hold 60 tools but I have a couple big boring tools, long drills etc that are too big to store there. So i manually load and unload them. I am currently dedicating a place in the magazine for them but id like to know how to call tools outside of the magazine storage size. Magazine holds 60 tools, the tool library has 400 places for tool info. Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry forgot to add its a fanuc controller.
