Thanks to kevin I have finally put in mine seaking 180 and tacon 3674 1700 motor.
I went ahead and installed a 2075 traxxas servo to see how it does.I will be testing out on the water soon and posting my results.

Here is a pic of the tray.As you can see I have new tubing on the esc(OSE medium7/32" outside diameter with 3/32" inside diameter high flow Silicon tubing)(btw medium tubing was a lil tough to get on the 180 barbs.) but kept the original on the ends for the first run until I check everything.Then will use the new tubing.
Kevin everything look ok to you?
Thanks again.

Yup,

Looks good to me. :thumbup1:

I got a chance to run mine a fair bit the past few days, need to find the time to post up some Eagle Tree data etc.

This setup up runs good on S215 or S220 prop. Amp draw and all temps good on either prop (or similar).

But I did snap two drive cables this weekend on the 220 prop, one on each Spartan, so you might want to go easy on propping up too much.

Best top speed was 76 kph (47mph) with batteries mid point. So far I have found this battery placement the best compromise for speed vs stability. Still get some chine walk at WOT, but not too serious

With the batts further back, it is quicker, but I get serious death wobble before I can reach WOT.

Still playing with set up, so maybe I can eventually steady it out a bit more.

Kevin
