29" sprintkat - motor selection

I ran a CC/Neu 1518 which is 1800kv, on 4 and 5s. More than enough power for that hull.

i can run 3s or 6s. whats good motor and esc setup that is dependable

The seaking esc's are AWESOME especially the 180s, the problem is def not the esc's it your setup. Your setup needs a lot of work, if your running a kb45 (which are terrible amp sucking motors to begine with) on 6s that's the issue. If your runing the 8L which is 2300kv on 6s, that's a WHOLE lot of unloaded rpm's and add the fact the KB series motors are typically inefficient and that is what is leading to your esc failures. Until you change your setup, your gonna keep blowing esc's. There is not a motor that is gonna satisfy your needs for 3s and 6s operation, it's either one or the other and running 3s on that sprintcat may not be the best either. I would stick with 4s or 5s setup on that sprintcat. Look at the Leopard 4074 range of motors in the 1600-1800 range on 4s or 5s or 1900-2200 range on 4s... JMHO

What voltage do you want to run? The answers to your questions will depend largely on the voltage - 2S, 4S, 6S. Also, what type of running - oval racing, SAW, sport?

Where in Texas do you live?
