SeaKing 120 esc

[forescott]

Im using the stock venom esc and motor in a rescue boat Im building.That way,I have a spare motor when the stocker craps out.No back-up esc though.The rescue boat should be a fun little guy to play with.

I know you guys are having good luck with the stock motors, but I'd run that rescue boat on 2s with the ekos gear in it. Or you might need a rescue boat for you're rescue boat!

dude im just using 2 regular stick packs....
not worried about the stockers just dont need to go all out
with her
but your right ...my luck it will burn up when im doing a rescue.......

[scubasteve95]

your pitch is 1.45 = 55mm....scotts is 1.4 = 56mm
your rpms are higher with less prop but your travel is almost the same
the wording mite be wrong but the idea is the same...
im going with the 10's on 42's should have no problems and
hit about 55mph...i like to just run it till my batts hit lvc......

I am really liking the sound of those 38mm props. 1.45 pitch is slightly higher than the cf-40 which is 1.4, and the slightly smaller diameter will allow the motors to rev higher with less heat. I'm thinking the 38mm might be the perfect prop for the 9xl. Now I want a set!

I'm sure they'll be fine. Just teasin.

I might have to bolt on my 442's and try her out this weekend for a quick saw run just to see if I can scrub any more speed off this thing. I just dont want to burn anything up. 60mph would be cool bragging rights though!

Thats probably true,but Im gonna give her hell on 3s.I might run my 442' this evening or in the morning.I have to make adapters still.60mph would be sweet.Id be almost as fast as my buddies Apparation.Ive got a little surprise for him though-2 Align 600XL's 1650kv on 6s.

[LarrysDrifter]

Forescott,try the 38's.Theyre awsome.I picked up 4mph.That was with them not sharpened or balanced.And theyre cheap.I think they are 12 dollars and something a piece.

[forescott]

I gotta have-em!

[LarrysDrifter]

I gotta have-em!

You have to try the 442's!I just got back from running with them.Got 64.3mph on Garmin GPS!Temps were 177 degrees with a 5 minute run.Its jumps completely out of the water.I ran out of room as the local spot is a hair short for really fast runs.I believe 66mph is very achievable.Try em,youll love the speed.I know I can beat my buddies Apparation for sure now.

[forescott]

No way! I'm impressed. That's really hot though. I already have the 442's bolted on and everything is lubed and batteries are charged. I was gonna run it tomorrow as long as I have calm water.

[LarrysDrifter]

Sorry.I meant 117 degrees.Im going to a bigger lake tomorrow to open it up.Ill post a pic of where I mount the batteries so you can get an idea for yours for tomorrow if you want.

[forescott]

I still use the battery trays. 117 is much better. You had me nervous there for a minute.

[LarrysDrifter]

You might want to take the tray out.Not telling you what to do with your stuff,but the batteries need to be moved way forward.Im going to try different settings on the stingers and batt placement tomorrow.

[LarrysDrifter]

Here is where I put the batteries and GPS for the 64.3 mph run.
