    ammo motor

    people have had good luck with the sv esc and the ammo motor......... the sv esc is 45 amp so it would be safe to say i could use a pulso 60amp esc with this motor and a 45cf prop on my cat
    60% of the time... it works every time!

    Dirtysouth31 has been running that ammo motor in his SV27 for months now. He had this to say...

    He has since put that motor/esc in his Miss Vegas and still has no problems.

    I recently bought the Ammo motor and installed it in my Miss Bud with the SV27 ESC. She used to run approx 20Mph on the stock SV27 motor. Now with the ammo, she runs 37.2 Mph. No problems to report.

      A friend of mine from Australia, or should I say my mate from Australia ran his Electro vee with the SV27 ESC and the stock SV27 motor. It ran 59.8km/h (37.2mph) with an M447 prop.
      He put the Ammo motor in the same boat, same ESC, same batteries, SMALLER prop (k45) and it ran 66.6km/h (41.4mph)

        At the Nationals this year, the P-Sport Hydro record was set using an AMMO motor on 4S1P lipos in a one-of-a-kind vaccuum bagged 25" DH Shovel...

        Not sure if that shows how "good" the motor is, or how important it is to have an excellent hull and setup...

        The motors do seem to work well... We did burn up a couple of SV27 motors over that week, however, one of them under perfectly mild stock SV27 use...... so we'll just have to see how the longevity of these similiar style "cheapy" motors pans out...

          Records! LOL Those guys can set records in some classes running toy wind up motors. Brian is a serious asset to the fe boating world. We just need to start a fund to get him to write a book on hardware and prop tricks!

            The Ammo motors work perfectly on the SV27 ESC. Grimracer runs it too. Ammo motors are available at OSE for a mere $67.99. while supplies last! LOL
            I know there will be more of them on their way to Australia soon!

                I don't have that ESC, and I haven't read the stats on it, so I can't answer that one accurately, Sorry
