The Manx has been sitting dormant, but I think I finally have my motivation back. I hope to see it float soon.

Cool, you might wanna try the Nitro SV props composites x437 I think they may be small enough for those motors, they come 2 to a packSamuel Johnson - “An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.” William Cooper "listen to everything, read everything, and believe nothing unless you can prove it in your own research!"Comment

the boat ran pretty good I can't wait to get some brushless power in her

Nice! Seems to be running well. If you get those brushless I d like to know something. I will like to do a similar project ,but with a different boat some day. How do you put two brushless ESCs to run with only one reciever or perhaps a DSM reciever?Comment

I'm thinking one hydra 240 should do the trick
or two smaller controllers and tie the receiver wires together
(I have not thought it all the way through yet, but I know it is possible)
the next step for me is a counter rotating shaft for one side.
the props ride half out of the water like a true surface piercing setup.
I also loved the way it sounded.
my guess is it ran around 30mph with 12cell 3300nimhs.
all my homemade parts held nicely too.The Manx has been sitting dormant, but I think I finally have my motivation back. I hope to see it float soon.Comment

One brushless controller and 2 motors will not work, you will need 2 controllers with the reciever leads wired together.Grand River Marine Modellers

Thanks for the info Doby. I guess that a separate reciver batt. is needed right?Last edited by hex-dj; 06-29-2008, 07:13 PM.Comment

Doby you don't think you could use a hydra 240 to run twins since it has two sets of wire leads coming out of it?Comment

the double wires are for handleing the current.. With brushless to need an esc for each motor, and run a "y" cable from esc's to rx.Twin cat 9xl,... 29 titan 8xl,....37 in mono kb48 8xl.... 42 in twin elc cat project... 42 in gasser cat 260 modded zenoh''' planes and trucks....Comment

thanks for the info guys. It is good to know that I was wrong on that. I would have felt bad if Avanti had bought one controller and killed it.Comment

Well this boat will be shelved for now as I am building a DF33 keep an eye on this thread in the fallThe Manx has been sitting dormant, but I think I finally have my motivation back. I hope to see it float soon.Comment
