twin motor data - first of its kind?

went out yesterday with the two loggers and got some results. Not near as big a difference as people might have guessed. I think one has a little more drag in (the blue-port) drive line. I am also amazed at the super low amp draw!!!
Suppo 1600KV outrunners, 4S each motor, 38mm props - top speed: 55mph!!!!!

Hey just checking in on this build, id say go for it man

I think as long as the drives are mounted close together the props should stay in the water I would think?

Def try to keep the props as close as you can, I had a problem with my props hitting and had to install a bar at the end of my struts to keep them away from eachother, ill post a pic to show you what I mean but other than that I didnt seem to have any other problems. Let me know if you have any other concerns or questions and id be happy to help.

Here are some pics of Carls boat running today. She ran great in the chop. Note the video camera taped on the bow.
