    Is 120 esc enough?

    Putting together a boat with what I have on hand. Tartan 29 hull Feigio 540xl (75mm) and 120 esc plan on running two 2s 5000 30-40c in series. Thinking the 120 ESC will just do it as max watts of motor 1000?
    Not looking to squeese max speed just decent run times so any prop suggestions?

      6-24 NiMh or 2s to 6s Lipo cells in a medium to large sized mono or hydro.
      1000 Watts Maximum with proper cooling.
      35.8mm dia x 75mm long
      5mm Output Shaft. Use 5mm Couplers.
      372 grams
      Up to 1000 watts of power with proper cooling.
      50,000 rpm bearings!
      Aluminum Purple Anodized Casing
      2-Pole Neo Magnets & Compressed Windings.
      Mounting screw holes are 25mm apart on center.
      3mm mounting screws.

        I have run many Hackers and Feaigos (Hacker clones) and their Kvs run from under 1000 to over 3500. Without knowing the motor Kv it is not possible to safely answer the OP's questions about the ESC and prop size..

          You are correct on what I believe the motor to be right down to purple casing. The motor came with the boat originally from Fine Design. Have no idea of the kv .......in previous thread it was mentioned that FD used to scratch kv on end of motor but cannot see anything
          End cap of motor has 7xl FDM nothing else think Assan nailed the specs
