GRX SAW RiGGER

[urbs00007]

hi Gil, how is your straight-a-way electric rigger coming along? would like to see some more video! I have a big favor to ask. could you find out how much the fuel weighs for a .45 outrigger heat race set-up? doing some calculations on my electric 4082 set-up. by the way 1600 kv is working much better than 2000 kv. my new boat weighs 7-1/2 lbs and runs nice and cool with abc 45x68 or oct 1450. still going to cut some off the oct prop to get the revs up a little. thanks gil

45 riggers usually carry 14/15 oz tank for oval race.You can also try ABC H-7 with the 1600 motor.My saw rigger received some mods(new sponson's pads),a big ETTI cap bank and will be tested soon..weather here is misarable..lot of rain and temps around 13C (cold for a tropic guy)...and all the mess you can watch on tv. with all kind of strikes.

Today went to the lake for more prop/batts tests and just received the first vídeo.Esc's issues were definitevely solved with the extra cap bank...ran 6 packs consecutively and temps were around 45 C degrees with motor esc/batts. I really liked the A-Spec batts and can say they are in the same level with Dinogy's. Gill

Tyler this is the only lake where we all can make tests with the approval of the landlord.I do know that is short but we 've having lot of fun and the saw Fe class is growing up fast here.I would love to attend any race in the USA but job tasks do not allow me to be absent even for few days but who knows next year when things tend to settle down.Just to comment the extra cap bank IMO is the solution for the Caste esc's despite motors or batts.I will download my data and post here soon Thanks guys.Gill
