Enjoy the hobby... But I am done with RC boats. Years ago I used to get complaints about the engine sounds coming from my boats.. so I switched to electric. Last year I was inundated with so many complaints about the sounds of my electric boats that I was dumbfounded.... That, coupled with nobody coming around to watch... I used to draw crowds, but not anymore.... I only get complaints. I am hanging up my hobby... I actually threw five boats of my in a dumpster recently. As for the five I have left remaining, I think they'll sit on the shelf for many years to come. I have about $3,000 worth of batteries that I do not know what to do with. I'll probably just shoot some nails into them so I can put them in the garbage. Nobody is interested in our sport anymore. They feel it's just noise that they should not have to deal with.

Hi there, I understand exactly what your saying, the noise can annoy people.I have found a very wide shallow river to go to where there is no one . .Sorry to hear it ended like that ,you did some great boats also your not old yet so plenty of time to find another spot to run boats later on

@peteroosterhoff8850Ай бұрын
@paulcooper7162 its an idea i have for a future boat. Its a kind off inbetween motor size and not very expensive compared to for instance castle 1520/1717. Also lot less weight than 56 motor. Think it could be a 100mph boat with that 1650kv and have never seen anyone use it for that matter but believe it's way more suitable than the Blackjack motor on 8s... I was able to run the 1520 with normal 40size cooling jacket by enlarging bore on one side and glue/kit it permanent on motor (between ribs). Worked damn good, only damn castle motor blew its rotor...😡
@paulcooper7162Ай бұрын
@peteroosterhoff8850 Sounds good if you already have the motor and ESC but I already have the blackjack 42 motors and 160A escs that run 8s without breakage,it's good you've found a setup you like
@peteroosterhoff8850Ай бұрын
@paulcooper7162 well, from the castle set the X8s survived and bought a sss to replace the castle. Honestly have more trust in a hw (or sss) motor than a castle... But think that hw4990 is over limit off that 160A esc you already got. Its normally pared to a 200A in a car. I think in a boat application that same motor probably would even need/like a bigger esc... Think a simple 4092 has enough for that hull btw. Its just depends on what you want from it i guess
@paulcooper7162Ай бұрын
@peteroosterhoff8850 Yes 4092 is perfect for this boat.I do have a new Hobbywing Max4 HV 300A ESC with the marine conversion kit if I need to upgrade.I sold this boat and never changing the blackjack 42 motor and ESC combination is perfect together

If I have same rated motor but says 8s capable is it useable with 12s?? 🤔🤔 or only if spec sheet says it will do 12s? Just cos has lower kv doesn't mean it is rated to higher volts? (Which is generally the case) 🤔🤔

No definitely dont run 12s on a motor rated to 8s.This motors 790kv can run even higher voltage safely also it's a big motor
