still waiting on C.C. for esc REPAIRS and decided to try out the himodels 200 amp i use them in my hydro drag boats and love em..i water sealed them with electrical epoxy and am waiting on the cooling plates. i also block sanded the fetts as flat as i could get them without compromising them, still not perfect.. but im using arctic silver 5 compound to bond the plates so it might be fine..i also cut a piece of hose and ca glued it to the heat shrink covering my stuffing tubes and a piece of .... you guessed it C.F. ( my buddy) over the tops for looks...this helped my mono from greasing the inside of the hull and water sealing as well...

Wolf , I tried the cnc 3860/3 , It took a long time for them to hook up but when they did the top speed wasn't to bad. the props where cavitating for about 10 sec .I tried to apply the power real slow but it didn't make any difference, I also tried a pair of CF-45,s , The acceleration from the get go was very good but the top end speed was a little slow. So back to the x442's and jump out of the hole acceleration with a much faster top end speed. I have 1 more set of props to try out ( cnc 4569/3) I will try these in the next couple of days. I'm a little pissed about those cnc props being for a tunnel / hydro 1.1m and not preforming , make very expensive show props!!!!! Had the loggers setup in the boat but i forgot to update the software on them so they didn't give me any readings.(f*^$%#k) I'll try that one again soon . Also went down the butcher shop and weighed the boat with everything on board, total weight 4.6kg , Sorry bro no vid wife had to work. so next update I'll have a bit more info for you. BONEWAR

dude, 10 lbs... thats lite!!!!im at 14 but thats with a crappy scale i have in our bathroomill get a better reading later... im not stoked either as none of my "cnc" props worked either....i bought 3 .... looking good is only cool for a little while.. wish i could use them!!442's it is!!wife had to work? what kinda lame excuse is that? j/k looking forward to seeing it run again!!!

Hey Captain CF, you continue to amaze me with your handiwork, could you explain with more pics your anti-grease-all-over-the-inside-of-the-boat trick? I have grease inside ALLLL my boats and would rather not have the truder join in on that fun.
Thanks

I take a piece of high quality fuel line and cut one side down the middle to fit over the brass but not touching the flex. I then use thick gap filling ca glue to glue it inplace as i squeeze the ends of the hose back together with needle nose pliers. Use kicker or let it set up[... This time i had shrink tube around the brass so the o.d on the shaft was larger and the hose didnt fit all the way around so i used a c.f tube and cut it entirely in half and glued it ontop.. All of this just deflects the grease from spinning off ,.. Worked wonders on my mono you saw on youtube.. Plus looks a little cleaner ..helps with water too..
