    Grease should be apply after every run or every other run.

    Flex shaft ends should be soldered to avoid unravelling. But if you use a flexhex, you can get away without.

    As far as the 2 pickups, I would take the one off the sponson and just use the one on the rudder. I would also gut the hull and install an adjustable motor mount. Then place the electronics on the tunnel, and tape the hatch shut.

    how do I program the himodel 200 8s version or do I even need to?

    how thick should I apply the grimracer grease on the flex shaft? and how often?

    should I solder the end of the flex shaft before crimping the flex hex on?

    please look at the pic and you can see I have two input cooler feeds...one on top of the rudder and one lower right in the picture...then you can see I have one output tube on the port side of the boat

    please give me opinions on how you would route all this add another output or use a "T" or "Y" inside the boat?

    Such doubters

    Never doubt again. That is a 12XL and a cheapo 80 amp Mystery. It will be changed to my Etti ESC.

    I will change the ESC and it will now run on 6S. Prop will go down to a x445 to begin with.

    If I were you I would rip all the other junk out of there. Don't have to but will make a cleaner build for your FE. I will try and get a pic of mine. It was built for FE so the hull is empty.

    The rest is fine. Either coupler...set screw or Octura. The set screw style is a bit harder on cables so you must solder the end...as you do with cable but it may be easier for you with cable.

    I promised you a pic but have to wait until my kid gets home since my digicam is not focusing well.

    Yes, having the motor at and angle to bring the cable in straight is preferred.

    Mount your motor mount to a 3/16" ply and then epoxy that across the tunnel. I never mount my motor until I have the driveline in and then mount my motor accordingly...I spend more time lining that part up than just about anything. I spin the prop and feel for drag etc.

    Its a mass produced motor as opposed to hand built Neu, and has a finned can.
