? on what to replace my Turnigy 180 ESC

I'm sorry I couldn't have saved you the trouble before you bought cells. They are o.k. for smaller stock motors but, not for a 4082 let alone a 5694 I was running in my mono. They are just fine in RC cars but, rc cars are very easy on lipos compared to boats running a 4082 motor.

You won't here it on the other side if the lake but will do when you pass near or bring it in without taking the hatch off

You know what would be a neat little gizmo... one of these alarms that would work with say Spektrum telemetry. Would be so handy, set it once and swap around boats.

The new ESC will not help, you puchased pretty much bottom of the barrel lipos, you switced to a more powerful motor in your boat and your revo clmbing a 60' incline with a 10lb rock chained to it will not pull as many amps as a boat! also running higher mah doesnt just give you longer run times it increases the amount of amps you can draw from the pack, a lot of people don't get this? so if you're running 25C 5000's you can theoretically draw 125 continuous amps, now if you parallel 2 sets you now have 10,000 mah and can draw 250 amps, get it? now you can run harder and longer and you wont be stressing the batteries as much, now look at a set of 50C batts and you can now pull 500 amps from the parallel setup!!! get sum new batteries I use the t180's in lots of hi amp setups with good batteries and have never had 1 single problem with any of them.

I know I need new lipos. I just want the data log features that everyone seems to like. I cant remember my numbers now but when I had my erevo doing 100+ MPH speed runs with very tall gearing with the nanos. I was able to pull some high amps out of them for a short period of time. Which kinda equates to the amount of time when my LVC would kick in when I first put my boat in the water. Does anyone think theres a difference between the gold a spec nanaos to the standard a spec's?

I will shoot you a pm later to a guy who does a lot of electric work for my RC stuff... He is smart with the electrics on land vehicles, he also built me a lipo Discharger. Just ask Him if he could work something out with that, there has to be a way. Keep in mind I don't guarantee he will but it's worth a try.

EDIT--- Here is a page he made, his email is toward the bottom:
