I recently purchased both boats and I'm looking to modify them so I'm trying to put together a parts list on what I need and where to buy it and would appreciate some guidance and opinions.
1. What kind of 3s batteries are you running...brand ?, hard case or standard ?, mah and c rating and where to buy ? I already checked out HK for some hard case Nano's in the 5300 to 6300 MAH 50-100c range and they don't have anything. Are the hard case batteries necessary ?
2. What is a EC5 ? Where to buy ?
3. What motors are you running and how fast? I haven't decided on a motor yet but the video linked below really does impress me for a Spartan motor designed by Castle.
4. What Flex cables are you running and where to buy ? Are you removing the stuffing tube and going to a bigger cable and collet or can stock size handle the power ?
What I'm planning so far:
1. X642 to X645 props...any recommendation on where to purchase these already worked over for this particular hull ? I can sharpen and balance myself but if there is somebody that is cutting and working over props for this particular setup I would like to know about it.
2. HobbyWing SeaKing 180 ESC
3. Extra Cap strip
4. Side mount rudder for MG.
5. 5.5 bullet connectors.
6. reinforcing battery mounting bases with Carbon Fiber
Thanks in advance for any help and advice you may have...
