Hi Guys If you use Hobbyking 3648-1450kv 35mm brushless on a 4S 5800mah Lipo, 100Amp ESC and a 2 blade 40mm prop it will go like the clappers !!! You would have to make it from plywood to take 1600Watts(about 2HP @ 21,000 rpm(unloaded)!!! C …

Hehe, managed to find a 28mm brushless for 8 quid. Needs a wrap of ally tube as watercooling, but that's easy. But I will see if the 400 fits. Can't go wrong at 8 quid, although I need a Brushless ESC and I know nothing about them at all. M …

Doug, the outboards are made to take a 28mm brushless. There's an angled pre-drilled plate comes with it, to which I assume a 28mm brushless screws. They tend to use 2S LiPos on their boats with 23-2800KV, so about 18,5oo revs or a bit more …

Aha! THAT sort of dolly! Why does it need to be a brushless? The kV rating means 1000 rpm per volt! So, yes it do make a bit o' difference! HK do have 'smaller' motors, I bought an 1100kV version from them for my Sea Scout. Unless you want …
