What esc/ motor / prop combo would handle handle the 3 lipos? Had mine out yesterdat for the first time. It was cold!! As soon as i figure this out ill download vid and pics.

stock these boats are fairly fast on 3s.
what is your goal on 3s?

[bill1473]

Dont have a goal yet. I just ordered x442 & x447 props. I just have an xtra set of lipos. And instead of goin to spend 300+$ on a set of new 4s lipos , may as well use three 3s i have. I found a small gps i had layin around. Still friggin cold out, but i found a spot thats not frozen. Ill start testin mph with my gps thurs morn. Im just really havin a hard time understandin this stuff and find it easier to use others knowledge and experiance. Ill try it and tell you if it works.

try it stock and get your struts set correctly and have a blast with it, then start upgrading as you go..

Your motors will burn up on the 447. way too big. I burnt up a motor running the 442's everything was really hot!

[bill1473]

No way! I already ordered them. Oh well , guess im gettin new motors next. Anyone have any sugestions? Were u runnin 3s lipos when they burned up? Im gonna play around with the struts.

Another guy ran the 442's with good luck. I ran mine for about 2-minutes on 3s with the 442's and it got super hot. Took it home and one of the motors stopped working. Your call. Short run times and check the temps!

I run the ammo 2700's with good luck. They will take 4s and get you into the mid 40's with a good prop. Another motor I want to try is the ARC 380 sized 2800kv 4-pole motors. Also fiegao has a long can 380xl motors in several kv ratings, and OSE has water jackets for them.
