One thing that was nice in a way with the turnigy motors was it didn't seem to wanna jump out of the water when you goose it. I think thats all about to change.....I'll keep ya posted, prolly be this weekend, so I can have my camera girl rolling film.FE BOATING: Less like a hobby and more like an addiction!Comment

What ESCs were you running? I had a HUGE difference in take off when I went from Ettis to Turnigys. I have a heck of a time getting the first take off on fresh batts in my single drive cat. I back flip it ALL THE TIME.
My twinny launches incredibly well. Doesnt go verticle off the line. Even on a hard launchComment

Same as the maiden 120a Turnigy Aquastar's. They should hopefully see less amp spikes from the high voltage set-up now. It's all a guessing game with me due to no data logger.FE BOATING: Less like a hobby and more like an addiction!Comment

Yeah Im really really loving those Turnigy 120s. If the stock PB esc is 45A and it turns the stock motors, running the 120s w/ 2 stock motors you shouldnt have any Amperage issues at all. You are going up to 6S, but the PB ESC will take 5S. I think you will be well under the 120A mark. Im pulling about 90 per motor in a bigger boat with 10Xls.. 1600 something KV. Im no electronics wizzard when it comes to this stuff, but Id bet you pull 80 or less.Comment

The only thing I've noticed with the Aquastars is on the "standard" start setting it had a noticeable delay when you get on and off the throttle. I have set it now to the "Fast" start and see how it goes. Boat is at the art shop getting some work done.If all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed!Comment

Im using the black wrapped Turnigy marine, not the blue wrapped Aquastars and dont have that problem. Its instant throttle response both on and off
ohhh, what are you getting done?Comment

Yes I know how those are. Fqdawld had a mono setup with those and it's like a fregging on and off switch. He burnt three of them, two on plug in, one of em new never seen water. I'm. Liking the aquastar so far. Only really had a few runs so far.

When you say "like an on off switch", you mean it was all out or nothing? What Im experiencing w/ them is incredible trigger response throughout the entire range and I can do very soft starts. Unlike my Ettis that on soft start will back flip my other 32" cat single drive, 1 out of 3 times on fresh batts. Extremely annoying.Comment

I like how they cover the water nippples with heat shrink on the Aquastars....Really shows off the knowledge of who is putting them together. Do you guys have to hold the throttle in during start up. Mine seem finicky like they want to go into programming mode.FE BOATING: Less like a hobby and more like an addiction!Comment

I have none of those issues w/ my Marine Turnigys... Again, Im not using the Aquastars. I couldnt read enough good about them to make the purchaseComment

Even the Castles have shrink covering the nipples no biggie. You only need to set the throttle parameters the first time. After that you just plug in as you would normally do.If all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed!Comment
