Riva Aquarama project

Hello,
I am building a model boat and I want to install a motor and servo and to control it with RC.
Can anybody point me to right direction, please.
Does anybody knows where I can find Arduino instruction (code and scheme)?
Can anybody recommend RC and Reciever with good price?

And if anybody wants Riva Aquarama 1:10 scale plans you can leave your e-mail.

What, exactly, is the Arduino going to be doing?

I was wondering are there some arduino remote control projects where you can control servo and motor.

An Arduino can be connected to an RC Receiver and get the information being sent to the RC Receiver. But, why? The RC Receiver is capable of driving the servo(s) directly. Driving a motor with a RC Receiver requires an ESC (electronic speed controller) which acts, for all intents and purposes, a servo.

Ok, I didnt know that. As you can tell Iam pretty new to this thing :smiley:
Thanks
