I got mine last week, installed it in my 42" Cat:
A few observations:
1) Big motor thats not too heay compared to some of my big inrunners I have.
2) Very large power wires (nice)
3) Poor solderability on these wires (not nice). It took a lot of the most corrosive flux I had and cleaning of the wires with a steel brush to make a decent conection .
4) Lots of torque when powered up compared to an inrunner, my cat (on its stand) started slowly moving across my workbench when I was messing around with the throttle.
5) Probably as a result of the torque, it takes a looooong time for the prop to stop spinning when I get off the throttle.
6) No nipples installed for the water cooling, I had an old SV27 controller and canabalized the ones off of that to used on the motor, had to have the holes on the motor enlarged slightly and tapped. Would be nice if they came installed. When you buy a water jacket for your inrunner, they have them installed, but not on this motor??
I'll post some pics later,,,,water trials are still about a month off (hopefully)
Overall, a nice piece of hardware.Grand River Marine Modellers

Steven, I can't find 638 glue on your site? Found the 90's but not the glue.

Is it a type of loctite or epoxy or? Brand name? For those of us who will buy your 90 degree fittings and need a glue to hold 'em good!
