29" MEAN MACHINE SAW BUILD: TWIN C/R LEOPARD MOTORS, HOW MANY ESCs?

[RaceMechaniX]

Jim,

Rearwheelin was run as a legal 2P boat. I don't recall if he was 4S or 6S, but we inforced the cell count and parallism. He showed up with 4P system and after we explained the class rules he made up a Y adapter to run two esc's per 1P back. He killed the packs as I recall, but it ran.

Thanks for clearing that up, Tyler. 4S2P it is. JIM

Jim,

I have already built that set up in a mean machine..........exactly as you describe. Have been too busy to run it so the next time you come up we can see what it does on my lake. There should be some pics on OSE somewhere that I previously posted.

Thats great, Joe. It'll be fun to run them side by side. The Mean Machine is one of 4 builds I have going on, and need to install the new Castle 200HV2 ESC in the Segad & a motor in Miss GEICO. I bought a 32" Apparition twin to learn how to setup a twin cat. Gonna run it with the stock motors (both L hand drives) first, then switch to a CR setup for SAWs. When done, I will have 3 boats to enter in 5 Saw classes, and an Aeromarine AvengerPro for S/T class oval/offshore races. Should fill up my Kia Soul to the limits.

Any SoCal FE meetings at your place comming up soon? JIM
