Unsure of what C rating lipo to get

[eboat]

Just make sure the lipo you are looking at will fit the space you have
Some are long and narrow and others are shorter length and wider

The highest you can afford.

Yeah I measured the area where it would be going. I just got a 2s for now. I also ordered my motor a Turnigy 28-45 3600kv Brushless Inrunner (WaterCooled). I just have find a decent esc I can afford.

hi

how many Amp is 60C?

[domwilson]

At what mah rating?

[Mel279]

Its actually 6s 30C 2650mah, and I've decide to connect in parallel with the same battery, which gives a total of 60C 5300mah. Can my seaking 60A(burst 120A)handle this?Im actually going to setup on my drifter s using feigao 12xl with x437/3 prop, and it will be 55 amp draw with that prop.

[domwilson]

I would go with a higher amp ESC. Your packs are capable of delivering over 300 amps.

60 X 5.3 = 318 amps. However, your continuous draw will be only 55 amps. You will get longer run times. But your peaks could be much higher. You really don't want to run an ESC more than 70% of it's maximum voltage or amperage.

Ok, thanks for the info, I guess I need higher amp esc for this setup

Steven,
Are there any Books or Manuals available covering the Basics of FE Boats???
If not, maybe you could publish one?

I think there's a big demand?

Thanks!

Nope................that would be 30c at 5300mah..............159 cintinuous amps available.
