Not any super updates. It has been running flawlessy thus far after the controller was fixed. runs 71~72 consistently back to back to back. Amp draw on the batts is on the limit when running 10S1P, but everything is very comfy on 10S2P or 8S2P.
I'll be running her this weekend in the open class at our district race. Shuold be fun as long as I don't get bumper and banged too bad.

Prop on 10S is a Octura X457
The problem with the Schulze was the cap leads. I vaporized them when I connected an external cap bank on the very first run. Once it was fixed it ran great. see earlier detail in the thread.

Aeromarine Conquest FE Open Cat 10S Build
After just finishing my Aeromarine Cycle build just today. I have to say that you did an outstanding job on the build. I think I may also up mmy prop for the maiden voyagem based on your info. My Leopard is a 1095 kv. I only through on an x450. I think I will start with an x457. I am running 8s2p. I think it should handle the speed and the prop load.
How wide in the Conquest? The Cyclone is 17" wide. I built it for Open Offshore racing.
Again you did a great job on thr build.

Jeff, Thanks for the compliments. The conquest is 16" width compared to the Cyclone. Likewise I built mine for open class racing although its difficult to make a full 6 lap offshore course with 10,000 mAh.
No other updates on the boat. I am waiting for a Castle Hydra Ice HV to power the Neu motor. The Schulze had too many issues with this Neu motor so I shelved it in till I get a Hydra Ice HV. I tested with both of the ICE esc on 8S and 10S and was very happy with the results.

It would only go partial throttle and then quit. The newer Schulzes have a problem with the low inductance of the Neu motors. I assume that with the current logging (indirect reading based on measuring the voltage drop across the FETS and knowing their resistance) on the newer controllers, the Neu's have huge currents at partial load which trips the over current protection. The Castle controllers due not have the same issue not due to older Schulze's without current detection.

Fantastic build, Tyler! I love the carbon fiber LiPo bays. What is the consensus on the strut for this hull - skeg or no skeg? I was contemplating on getting a Schulze to run 12S on a 2230/1Y with a conquest. I have a new in the box Castle 240HV, but some are saying that the Castle is not safe above 10S?...Mean Machine Cat: 9XL, 4S2P, CC120, M545 (50mph) -- DF22 Hydro: 8L, 3S1P/4500, CC120, x637 (49mph) -- M-1 SuperCat: 1521/1Y, 6S2P, CC240, x447 (61mph) -- SV27 Mono: stock setup, 14-cell/4200, x642 (42mph) -- Micro Scat Cat: 28-3600, 3S1P/2100, Turnigy 60, x430 (41mph)Comment
