Thanks guys for the compliments. When I started this project I knew very little about a real electric RC boat. This brushless thing is new to me and didn't even know it existed until I got into RC helicopters a few months back. I have learned a lot from you guys.
I chucked the boxes already but I think they were 2400 kv? Does that sound right? Whatever they are they run like a stuck pig. The props are Venom 32mm counter rotating. They are plastic. I have the aluminum ones on order but they have no idea when they will be in. I am going to try the 36mm props too. I have them in plastic just like these.Originally posted by Make-a-Wake View PostNice work!!! BTW, what kv motors did you end up with?.................went back over the thread and didnt see it. I see you have those slick 3 blades on it!
I don't know about sanding them flush, I thought about it but as it is there is just a dribble coming out of each thru hull discharge. I'll have to run it a few more times in a more wide open space to see.Originally posted by Darin Jordan View PostNice work... Just so you know... you can sand those intakes down flush with the bottom and you'll have less drag, and PLENTY of water pressure for the cooling. Flush is how most people do this type of intake.
Drag or not this boat runs way faster than I need it to. 3/4 throttle is fast enough. Full throttle is just silly.
But at full throttle this little hull is super stable, never once did I think it was going to get squirrely, even in hard turns it stays hooked in the water.
Great running hull this little Challenger is. I'm going to shoot some pictures to Remy at Aeromarine once its all done. When I was explaining what I wanted to do I'm not sure he was on the same page.

I can't compete with those dudes but here is the video of the Scarab running on the brushless system. The video doesn't do it justice, this little thing screams for the type of setup. This is running the counter rotating 32mm 3 blade Venom props. Today I'm going to try the 36mm props and see what happens.Originally posted by BILL OXIDEAN View PostThis project is insane and I want to see it do wheelies like no other TURN ME ON!!!!
