If I use two of these motors in my twin drifter M 36", 12s 5000mah, 2x 80HV seaking and 2x 40mm props. Is my setup ok or too overkill?:help:

I have a 700-68 that i've run in a 29" sprint cat and it ran great, they match pretty close to Neu spec wise.

thats great to hear, does the leopard 40mm waterjacket fits the motor?

[oscarel]

If I remember the Neu jackets fit. Also I'm not sure where you are but here's where I bought mine http://shop.turbofanelectrics.com/product.sc?productId=251 they include shipping and that motor is $139 shippedhere. The 700-83 is equivalent to Neu 1518

Im from Brunei, the link of that motor is frm singapore, so its not far and much cheaper shipping. Could u give me the specific neu jacket that fit that motor?

[oscarel]

Well if I look at this chart (http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/neu-motor-chart.htm) the 1518 is the same length as 1521 but I'm not sure about diameter. Here is the cooler for 1521 http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/proddetail.php?prod=ham-neu1521

I just saw someone selling the 1518 @ swapshop, its similiar to leopard 4082, so it seem that I can use the leopard waterjacket

Now that's the Castle 1518 not the Neu so the sizes are different. The Castles are finned and the one you're looking at it's smooth.

yeah I see its finned, hmm..anyway the 1518 waterjacket is the one that fit the motor that Im refering to, do u happen to know the I/D of the jacket?

[oscarel]

No I don't know. Again make sure which 1518 you're looking at because there is a Castle/Neu 1518 an a Neu 1518 and the are physically different sizes. Here's the company that makes coolers, contact them and see if they can help. http://www.hrc-mfg.com/

That is not a good setup at all. The motor Kv is far too high for 12S and you will pull far too many amps. For 12S you will want a Kv between 600 and 700.
