Genesis Cat with 4074 leopard motor

[video200]

my orginal motor was boiling on 4s on the original motor and the orginal ESC diddent last more then 20 secconds on 3s with the original motor.

Was that the stock motor on the 180amp esc or the Leopard motor.

Sry, the Leopard 2200 on the T-180.. not the stocker.

hi there

i'm a little bit surprise with answer's a read
ok a mono hull is not same as a cat
but on my lizard , i ran a Leopard 3674 (2200 KV) with a hydra 120 and a 4S lipo pack
(turnigy 5800)

last time it was with a S225 or a X445, S225 is far better

run time ..... 7 minutes, speed ....around 40/45 mhp

every thing was cold, i mean less than 30°C

Leopard motors are really really incredible

If I remember correctly, a member of the local club ran that motor in his on a Turningy 180A speedy and I believe he was turning a X640. It ran well in race conditions (high 40s) and ran cool.

That may have been me you're thinking of, except I was running a 2000KV 4074 with a X440 and it did run cool.

My setup is
2x 4S 45C 4000 MAH turnigy Lipos,
T180 ESC,
38mm copper prop - not sure what it actually is...
the stock motor - which I want to replace and im looking at this one as well
I replaced all of the water cooling in my boat with large diameter pipe and when its running at full speed it spits out almost 1M from the side of the hull!, after a 5 Min run of almost constant full speed against a 26cc gas boat, it died on the way in because my esc solder on my deals plug had melted, the batteries and esc were cold, engine was warm

Will the 4074 bolt up to the stock mount? Do you just need to replace the 36mm O-ring clamp with a 40mm? Don't mean to hijack the thread but I am looking to upgrade my Genesis as well.

yes but you cant use the ring unless you have a realy short water jacket.

Yup, there he is. Thanks for the correction Chris. I was close.

As vid said, yes, and all you have to do is swap out the 36mm ring to the 40. OSE sells the correct jacket you will need.

Cool, thanks Vid and Tiqueman. Would this be the one? http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...-leopard-4074L

Here is a great setup for a single motor GENESIS

You can take a cheap effective approach like I did and use a zip-tie. Not glameorus, but works. I'm still a fan of the 4082 on this hull.

What prop do you use on the 4082 motor. Martin.

The motor pictured is a 4074 2200kv, I was just showing you how I did it. As far as the 4082 I suggested that motor for another member here for his genesis and he posted great results. Looks like a CF48 maybe, here's his vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJckfHpAHZo

would it be possible to run 8S with the T180 and a 1050kv 4074????

No, T180 is rated at 6s. You will need a HV esc. I don't run my T180 past 5s and the bec is dis-abled.
