            With the watt meter in line you're measuring watts going in, not Watts coming out. You measure the energy used/consumed by the motor and not the energy converted into rotary motion. The output power can't be measured with a watt meter.

            A watt meter lets us know how much power we have in our boats

                  European champion? Where does it say that? Definately not in oval racing as the cornering is terrible!

                            David (who posted that video) said this in one of his posted comments

                            "Sorry , I don't speak German. Don't buy FSD motor , no good ! Buy Feigao or Kontronic or Lehner or ...
                            FSD is s*&^T. "

                              i could make a 380 motor in that mono go just as fast if not faster for 30 seconds
                              a short video is no proof of a good setup, even cheap and nasty motors will go hard given enough volts/amps, just not for very long
