Esc recomendation

[GatorsFan]

Was wondering what esc's would be recomended for a dual motor setup with 1800kv motors in a 36" catamaran

[SpeedFreak_86]

a set of speaking 180's and a program card would be a great step in the right direction. I've got three now, one in everyone of my fe boats. There reliable and water proof, had one of the under three times now...

Measure them

Is there a brand name?

[dana]

Also what packs are you running?

Take some pictures of them if you can and post them,
They may be the cheap 2 pole motors that come in the HK boats.
And they run hot some times and eat the amps up to.

36mm diameter 57 mm long was looking to run 4oc 5000mah 4s gens ace packs no name on the motors cant remember what brand they are

The 120 should be fine. 180 is always great to have more headroom, but not nessecary in your case

ok thanks this is what i found on the motor XYH-B3656 KV1800 Brushless Inrunner Motor For 1/8 Scale RC cars And RC Boats i may look into the 180's just to be safe

Ok,
This is the motors that you bought ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/XYH-B3656-KV...p2047675.l2557
If so there good to 5s but I would say with 4s and check temps at 1 minute and then 3 minutes.

[GatorsFan]
