5s yes, 6s? Maybe for a short time, but it will eventually destroy it. Could be 30 seconds, could be 3 runs. Bad idea tho

Of course I could be totally wrong. I would go for something in the 1500 kv range

i used to run a 2200 castle in my spartan on 6s and ive seen many people use a 1800 leopard in the spartan but im still learning this kv and cell business in boats :doh:

Why higher voltage? Why not just prop up on the 4s setup? An x640 or even an m445 may really liven it up.

well i went back to test the 45x68 and did not gain a bit of speed just wanted to jump it up some and see what happened

You're using a high lift prop on a Vee hull that wants forward propulsion....................

So running an extreme voltage, on a smallish motor with a lifting prop designed for a Hydro or rigger is the answer................:doh:
