[bigpapa]

Well guy's the ammo bit the dust , water pick clogged up on rudder, well youk now the rest, poof !!! When i bought the boat water exited the bottom of the boat, could not see water at all ,well now moved water outlet so it is in plain sight.......

Well third facelift consist of
neu 1515 1y
hydra 120
lipo servo battery
jeff wohlt beaing strut
jeff wohlt wire drive
m447 s/b
5sx2 4000 20c
18.5 volt parallel wired

[domwilson]

Now that's a good clean setup!

[bigpapa]

Tks dom !!!!!!!!

[bigpapa]

waiting on strut and wire drive from jeff, hope i can tidy up things next weet and get it in the water......

[Tom M]

Thats a sweet looking boat.

Lookin good Todd. you keep a tight ship. One comment, you have really tight bends in your ESC wires that go to the batts; dad always warned me against that - increases resistance dramatically, not to mention breaks the wires. I would like to see a smoother bend there. I like all the high flow tubature.

Tear it up Bro!

[bigpapa]

will try to redo jesse, you are correct, have a longer set of plugs made will try them, tks for the input........

[bigpapa]

ok jesse,redid with little longer wires, made the bend a more gradual one, tks for the input my friend

oh man! cannot wait to see the video of this one...

Am I understanding correctly - bending the power wires increases resistance dramatically? Where do people dream this stuff up from? That is entirely false - and straightening the wire now will cause more damage to the wire - don't do it.

What increases resistance is adding more wire - do not to that. The added resistance and impedence will increase the chances of damage to the ESC dramatically. Shorter is better, tight bends like that are invisible to electricity.

I think they are joking with each other.

[bigpapa]

tks fulid ............ shorter wires

Fluid, nothing was dreamed up. My dad has been an electrician for 30 yrs and I agree with him that tight bends in wires increase resistance; whether dramatically or not can be debated. I am not convinced that tight bends are "invisible" to electricity. Still not a good idea to have them in the first place. I don't disagree on the length and was not implying that the wires should be lengthened. I don't think you were very polite in your comment, it was bordering on disrespectful. I understand you are looking out for the FE community and maintaining true statements in these threads - where do you get your data to say this is "entirely false", I'd like to see it!

[bigpapa]

tks 4 your concern my friend, package will ship this morning, tks again.............

[bigpapa]

need some more video of the intruder ...........
