I have one in a Sprintcat 40 with a 1527/1Y. Haven't run it yet but the guys around here say it should be OK.

I had a 580 in the boat first. The motor puked after about 5 minutes and took the esc with it. Do NOT prop the 580 on 6S over about a 445!

whatwould be a safe voltage to run it on if i did decide to try it? im assuming a 1y over a 1.5d? the hard part is trying to find a used one with a 5mm shaft

There's a guy in Australia on ebay that sells an 8mm to 4mm hex adapter. Jeff can make one too.



I just bought a 1527/1.5d that was for sale here a couple weeks ago. They are out there. Might try a WTB thread?

HTH

[TwzteD]

so what kinda voltage>? 4 5 0r 6s? ill try a wtb thread but if anyone sees one forsale lemme know

[6S HYDRO]

we all would just like to see this thing run! try it out and post a vid.. i doubt anyone else will be buying one until theyve seen yours run.

[FighterCat57]

I would still like to see what a stock one will do.

I would still like to see what a stock one will do.

strange that no one has run this boat yet.........

[BakedMopar]

Its funny that most thinks they need a Neu to run a boat. Granted they are great motors ohers will be perfectly fine in a sport boat.

[JMSCARD]

Yeh just run the boat..... I wanna see what the leopard can do.... with the small 40mm prop it will be fine on 4s with the 120amp esc..... just run her!!! VIDEO PLEASE:)

[ray schrauwen]

Why not the Turnigy T600 4030 outrunner?

You could use the 880 KV on 8S1P 40C cells and use a Monster 2000 ESC

$220 upgrade depending on your level.

Bet you can get a good 50 out of her...


Heck, I'm buying the empty hull to try one in....

[TwzteD]

only reason i havent tried it yes is because i dont have any batteries i got rid of all my rc stuff a little wile ago and now im getting back into it, only thing i have left is my charger and radios, i dont wanna buy a 2 4s packs and then it be slow and have to sell them to get 5s packs if u know what i mean, hobby city sold like 15 of these im honestly surprised myself why no one put a video up.

[TwzteD]

oh and the stock prop is 44 i guess im just gonna sell the esc and the the t180 and see how it runs with this motor if its too slow ill get a better motor.4s or 5s?

4s at 2000Kv = 29600
5s at 2000Kv = 37000

5s might be a good way to go. Using the stock prop or possibly smaller to accommodate the higher RPM.

One of the guys on here with more experience should be able to say which is better for that hull/motor and recommend a good starting prop. I'm assuming that's a type-o above and you're planning on using the T180a ESC with the stock 2000kv Leopard motor.

I'm guessing that on 5s with that combo that 50's are attainable. Just guessing as I'm still learning about FE.

[TwzteD]

Yea I plan on buying the turnigy 180 esc but the motor I have is 2200 not 2000 so 5s is prob too much for that motor
