What speed control?

[paDDY]

I'm new to the fast electric and less then a month ago bought a bj 29 and am hooked! I just won an eBay auction for a 32" carbon fiber cat with a Neu Racing 1515 motor. What is a good speed control for this? Will the motor be ok with 5s as long as the speed control can handle it?

180a or greater speed control. Mike

What is the width? I would guess a 32" TFL cat in Carbon. Nice scoop.

[paDDY]

idk what the width is. I have not received it yet. I might have more pics.

Nice...

I see the water pickup on the rudder gets tee'd to the esc and the motor. What are your thoughts on this? Should it be ok? I know water will take travel too the least resistance path it can go.

I run on a Neu 1515 2200kv on 6S and I have used the hobbywing T180 on that setup http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...seaking-180-v3 I do suggest using a prop like a 442 or 642 and work up from there...I personally dont use the cooling line splitters, I prefer seperate lines on my hotter setups. One from rudder and one through hull pickup or use a dual pickup rudder.....that should be a fast boat even if you only go 4S...have fun... DJ

I don't like Y fittings for the very reason you stated Paddy.
The only way to see if it works properly is to have both outlets on the same side of the boat & see if the water streams out at the same rate as the boat roars past you at full noise.
I prefer the old into the ESC, then the motor & out the boat myself. Simple & Efficient.
