You need 8 AA alkaline batteries for the transmitter and two 7.2V Ni-MH Battery Packs with Deans Connectors (PRB3313 or PRB3314) for the boat.
No, you should not use LiPo batteries unless the speed control has been properly programmed, as it may cause serious damage to the batteries and electronics.
You should lubricate the flexshaft, propeller shaft, and all moving parts after every 2–3 hours of operation.
The auto sensing voltage cutoff will cut off power to the motor when the ESC senses that the batteries are nearing full discharge.
