Wow 30mph to 40mph with a little adjustment and a prather 220 very nice... this is a great thread especially since I awaiting my mg any day now. Pdr what batteries were you using to hit 40mph? I know proboat recomends 25c plus. I haven't even got mine yet and I already got a prather 220 on the way a x642 on the way offset rudder leopard 4074 and 150a seaking esc all should be here about the same time and just got my zippy 40c 5000mah 2s lipos in so I can't wait to see what I can hit if your getting 40mph just wish I could find a water jacket for my 4074
Is my MG "special"? 30mph stock?

What esc do you have? I do not believe Seaking makes a 150 amp esc.Originally posted by bbosncali View PostWow 30mph to 40mph with a little adjustment and a prather 220 very nice... this is a great thread especially since I awaiting my mg any day now.

Seaking is the boat series of esc's made by Hobbywing, they are one in the same.Originally posted by bbosncali View PostSorry hobbywing
I see now. They are not hobbywing seaking boat esc's, they are hobbywing platnuim esc's water cooled and waterproofed. That's why it through me off. Very nice, should work well. Hobbywing are great esc's. I never tried the platnium series but the seaking series works great. I may have to try those out sometime.

Is the platinum series supposed to be better or worse? The seaking 180s look exactly like the turnigy 180s and those get awsome reviews also I got the 150 for a great price with card so I hope I won't be disapointedmiss gieco cc 1518 62.1mph [/COLOR][/B] Delta Force 33" cc 1717

Hobbycity actually makes nothing they just rebrand everything. So the turnigy 180 is a seaking esc. If BC26 was using them I am sure they will work just fine. That guy builds some FAST stuff.Originally posted by bbosncali View PostIs the platinum series supposed to be better or worse?

Completely seperate things. No BEC means you will need to run a external rx pack to power the servo and the receiver. BEC means the esc takes power from the main battery supply to supply power to the receiver and the servo.Originally posted by bbosncali View Post1 more quick question since it has no bec does it have lipo cut off mode?
You will need a rx pack. I used these in my MG just fine: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNRJ9&P=ML

Yup will have a LVC.Originally posted by bbosncali View PostOk so then it should have lipo cutoff?? I ordered a castle bec just incase
CC bec will take care of the need for a rx pack. I run cc bec that in my MG because I dis-connected the bec on my stock esc. I like it ok, I still kinda like the rx packs better though, especially on higher voltage setups. I am kinda scarred to run the cc bec at higher then 4s. God forbid you poof that thing then your really
