    motor upgrade

    Hi can anyone tell me if I could put a 4800kv water cooled brushless motor into my stiletto 29 would the 60amp esc handle it and would it give more speed I plan to run it on 2x2s lipo`s

    Nope! If you try 4s with that it will smoke, 2s the amp draw would be unreal for that esc.
    If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

      What motor.....I think you will find that Kv output will cause you problems.

        You need to be looking at 2000kv or under for 4s.

          How long have you owned and run this boat the stock system is plenty for an outboard motor if setup correctly and within the RTR design concepts.
