    I understand that you already managed to make the modification in MM2? Did you manage to test them with the 1515 engines in a 30 "/ 35" hull?
    I ran the MM2 with a 1515 1Y and a 445 prop in a sport hydro, 29 inch. no problem I used a old cooling plate from a old Traxxas Spartan ESC and a BBY made one. remember to use a heat transfer paste between the cooling fins and the plate. I also used the plastic fan attaching case to hold the cooling plate on the ESC.

      Stop giving me ideas, lol.
      I would not do that the fets are too delicate and do not want to damage them. Just put the plate over the fins with heat transfer paste.

        Many thanks Randy!
        Search for images on the web. I also found a driver that could serve.

                Those things are gorgeous, wish they were smaller and more affordable.

                    Look at the MGM TMM 25035-3 for Race Boats X2-SERIES LITE or MGM TMM 28026-3 for Race Boats X2-SERIES LITE

                      I picked up two MGM 28026's recently for $270 USD each, not bad for 280 amp continuous controllers, yeah not cheap but not too far out of the ballpark for top quality and service. Base price is only $240 USD.

                          Take care to use some strain relief for the leads since I've seen one fail long ago because of neglect. The wires for input frayed and caused a short cct.

                            I have seen water proof receivers with corrosion on the connectors go wild. A little CorrosionX will fix all electronics.

                              Eletronic speed controllers and brushless motors for RC models. High performance, speed and efficiency, more setup options, increased quality and reliability.

                                It seams every time I look at the price at MGM it is one thing, then I save up and it is more.
