Build delta 29

[dddmx3]

I'm about to start a delta 29, I got the hull in the mail today (yellow)
I'm aiming for 60mph.

What do you guys recommend? I can CNC any part
What size should my flex cable be for 60mph?

[Rumdog]

.187" flex.
Sport running I presume?
I'd go with the Neu/castle 1518 (on sale super cheap at Castle)
5s, CC 240lv, or Seaking 180

What or who are you talking about ?

[Rumdog]

[Doby]

looks like castle maybe have run out of the 1518, you could buy the 1520 and use 6s with a smaller prop to acheive the same speed

Alright 1520.. What about heat? Castle motors heat up quick I don't think I can get enough water cooling in.

What size prop would be ideal?

Wow.. a 1520 in a df29!! in a df33 would be good, but thats a big, heavy motor for a 29.. will work obviously just a big boy for sure.... heres a 1520 in a MM, BIG motor...

[Rumdog]

These motors do NOT heat up quickly. They are very efficient. Ose should have the cooling cans in a few weeks according to Steven.

Castle motors run extremely efficient, and low heat. They are NOT feigaos. LOL

Another choice would be to also run a 1515 1y on 4s2p in your df 29...a staple, for many smaller monos.

[steveo]

i would think the extra weight would help settle the boat at 60 mph

[Flying Scotsman]

I have that same hull running on an 9xl and 4S....Neu motors are great, but I would not overpower that hull....50 mph is reasonable....60 mph Hmmm....crash and burn....the DF 33 would be a good choice for 60 mph.

just what I am thinking...

in the Castle sale motor line, the 1512 1800kv would be a great motor for that df29 and should put it at near 50....
