    If so, there's no current sharing taking place, both packs are under the full load.
    Two 3s packs. (2) 6s pack would be heeeeeavy! Look what it weighs with two 3s.....

        No problem bro, I could tell the difference just swatting the throttle on the bench! Keith's right, you'll think it was only getting 1/2 throttle when you run it next time! Night a day difference....

          ugh o.....this thing ought to move on out then! I know my prop is still too deep or the boat is riding too wet also for it to be pulling those types of amps. So far i really really like this motor/esc combo. Thats what the rivercat will be getting! I can just give my son that converted castle. I cant wait to run it again....might go out there wed. after work on the way home and run it again.

                  Actually, watching your vid, the ride looked pretty nice.
                  Raising the prop will def lower amp draw. There's a certain point where a prop really doesn't seem to gain any performance as far as depth goes. So just getting it to the point it hooks up nicely, without cavitation like crazy is a good place. Any deeper and the amps just go up.

                    Keith says it can be aired out a little more. I'm gonna try to raise the prop (gonna mark where it at right now) and go from there. I want to get the amp draw down. It kept getting faster as I raies the prop. I'm not sure why I stopped running it at the point I did. I guess I like fresh packs to do testing. Stay tuned, I'll be going back in a few days hopefully.

                      Oooooo holy sheet! I just re calibrated the throttle. I blipped it before to get an idea of the sound. Recalibrate it and did it again. Omg. It was a huge difference in sound! Huge!


                      Here's how the strut is adjust too btw.
