      I would say so, Big props though so there might be prop torque issues.

      As for watercooling, I will be making a watercooled mount.

        I've kept quiet on here about these until I recieve mine.

        Should be here this week, damn, never using airmail again... 3 weeks and counting....

        Next time its EMS!!

        I think this would fair nicely in a 39" mono on 8S1P and a large or heavily pitched prop. That is the 880KV vesion.

        I ordered both to see what they will be like, the 1100KV one I'll put in my 3.5lb (bare hull) 29" Promise cat... yeeeha!!

        I owned a Scorpion 4025 1100kv motor for a few weeks until I sold it in the winter after reading the blog on these motors, decided to wait and glad I did! Well, hope so when I see them...

          29 inch !! Whoa, I thought I was building a hotrod with it in a sprint 40..

          Hope it gets there soon Ray, mine took about 2 weeks to NZ and even Airmail normally gets here in a week or so. Ems is about 3-4 days.

            They have arrived in Canada finally, they should be here by Friday at the latest.

            I want to build a boat that is way overpowered but, just use a small amount of power so as to draw few amps.

            I don't have to prop it to pull 100 amps, 75 amps would be nice and nice long run time. I have race boats, I need a fun boat or 2.

                    All good dude but, when Turnigy comes out with a $35 880Kv & 1100Kv outrunner that is nearly the quality of a Scorpion (Weaker Shaft only 6mm, Scorp is 8mm) How can I resist.

                    I sold my Scorpion because I took a chance at waiting for these, Cool!

                    That would be a great running boat!

                        yup 4mm...

                        All things going well and If I can organise something resembling a cowl I might test run mine this weekend.

                              May 25 Ordered 1100KV from HobbyKing via EMS. , last one in stock (thanks Ray)
                              Next day account read "shipped" with a tracking number, but no email saying shipped
                              Hong Kong mail and USPS did not recognize the tracking number
                              June 3 still not here, but account changed last night to "shipped" but without a tracking number and I received an email saying shipped.
                              I will wait and see if it shows up since no trouble on 30 previous orders.

                              As for water cooling, I am going to use the simple inexpensive DWI technique described in:
