    I am waiting for Ben to get in the new HV ESC's and will be running 8S on the T600 then.

    I see t600 what you see? I mean he wrote it to me . It looks like he says t600 there is no t600 with 1760kv Isee what youre talking about 3 pages back but I think hes telling me that hes going to run t600's instead . Maybe im wrong. Im my adress to Keith but it was just and honest mistake and I said i wasnt telling him nothing that keith already hasnt. I know Keith is smart and i love his boats . Not trying to challenge his smarts just an honest mistake sorry guys

    They can handle 8 s but the proper loading prop
    He was talking about the 1760kv outrunners that fightercat is selling that Carl was taking about. And he was saying that the ten pole outrunners on 8s would have the esc switching as much as a leopard going 130,000 rpm.

Im not sure the outrunner will run on 8s...isnt it a 10 pole? Thats a lot of RPM...it woudl be equivetant to turning Howard's motor at about 130,000RPMs as far as the ESC is concerned. Some ESCs may be able to do that....but Im pretty sure most of them cant.

    If possible with your FDM hardware I would drill and tap strut bolt threads to 5 or 6mm and simply scuffing the clamp area with 100 grit has worked for me along with bigger bolts.

    If you put grooves in your strut you wont need another bolt. The genesis has only 1 bolt but with grooves in the strut plate and it has never moved.

    What do you mean you went from 3/16 to .187 Howard. 3/16 IS .187
    .150 to 3/16 shaft and then when to .187 to 3/16 shaft sorry about that.

I learned the hard way with my genesis when i 1st started the strut moved and broke my stuffing tube and twisted the drive shaft that broke a hole in the hull from it. It was about that time when i stop with 3/16 and went with .187 drive.
