    That is true! Like u said anything can happen. That would be cool if they had an unlimited capacity division for each class and just made sure no one was within a certain distance of the pond except for the driver and other essential people.

      Another thing is you could get in the T class and put your batteries in series and esc's in series! I do that all the time with brushed esc's but have not tried it with brushless.

        They do the safety stuff any way. There will never be a total Unlimited class it would have to be purposed with limit's. And there is a lot of people that want less classes and not any new classes on the NAMBA rules committee.

          Thinking of selling the boat if anyone is intrested send me a pm. Will sacrifice my labor for cost of the build plus xtra's left over. I would be intrested in keeping all of my electrics accept my motors that have only 6 passes on them. I am wanting to build a a simulare boat, maybee bigger.

              Truelly would be a great boat , but it would take up to much realestate for me and $$$$. I would build it a bit diffrent to. It would have 4 smaller motors also

                  No not yet , I was kicking the idea around though. Seems I am having an impulse to build another one.

                    No worries here ! I just had a new idea Randy. I will be doing some mods to my sponson struts and will be swaping out my center motors for a much higher KV and will only be runing 2 motors at a time, that way my motors will run right............ The plan is to run the monsters in the sponsons untill the boat gets up to speed and then hit a swich that will turn off the 1515 1y's and turn on a pair of 1518 1D's............and durring the drive swich over there will be a servo pulling the sponson drives out of the water ...............also by parelleling 2 50c 5000mah 6s packs to 4 speed controlles and while only running 2 motors at a time , what ever s 2 esc's in use will benifit from the idle esc's capaciters..........................I have a new awakening now................have my eye on a record...........competition beware !..........the quad is coming back..............in the future..........dont know when............but its coming...........................take good care of my power cord.................good times baby !..........................lol .........R. Duke

                        Turning the page !

                        Looks like I am turning the page on the Conquest ! I will be retrofitting it to run on twin 1717's for a new owner ! We will start by taking out all motor mounts and grind out all epoxy..Then I will make a speacial twin CF motor mount moved forward 1-2'' and re-do center stuffing tubes for .187 cable with liner.....................

                        I feel the twin 1717 is a great choice for sport boat application and really look forward to building this 6s 4p setup...Her are a few pics of my thrust diff wirering scheme( lol ) using no Y harnesses, couple cap cooler pics, and my linkage seal......
                        I will continue this build hear and will update as time allows...Thank you

                              Are you sure your not Charlie Sheen. Do you have Tigers milk running through your veins? You have alot of great ideas, and alot of clarity to them. It's scary! And I do mean that in a good way.
