Mg motor and esc ?

Duncan, who are you calling a rookie?

[Rumdog]

Hahahaaaaa!! Do what you want, guy.

Flawless. 60-70 is a bad idea with the geico. It will handle poorly at that speed. And wipeouts will be catastrophic. 4s with a 1515 will give you all the power you'll ever need with that boat.

[Heaving Earth]

Rum is right, but if you MUST shoot for 60's, that setup will do it on 5s

[Flawlessdecisions1]

Guess ill stick to that 1515 on 4s! Don't need to ruin a new boat lol! Thx for all the help guys!!!

You have to run on the edge to get better. You have to break stuff, burn up motors etc. I've seen revolts stock run on 6s day in and day out. Tracxas says run slash in 11 pinion on 3s. Been running 16 pinion on grass and asphalt for over a year. All in the details my friend. While this forum has good advice, it appears to mainly be low budget conservative advice. If you want the bull you have to get the horns along the way.

I can't agree more with the above comments. ( Rumdogs and Heaving Earth)
I have the MG and this hull needs to be trued and blue printed to run nicely in the 50's, it is not just a simple drop -in ( bigger motor , higher cell counts, etc. ) operation.

Duncan who are u talking too? Money is not my issue! Being new to brushless boats is!

[Heaving Earth]

You will be kranking with the castle motor on 4s

[Flawlessdecisions1]

Btw I have 16 trucks, 3 blade cx's, 2 48" enforcers w/ 26cc zenoahs so I'm in the hobby just new to brushless boats!

This is ridiculous....
We're giving proven advise, so he doesn't waste money breaking things.

[Bduncan]

I never have had anything blow up. Maybe your using castrol in a Bugatti.

[Heaving Earth]

Whatever. Go ask your mommy for some money for some
good equipment and quit whining.

You run a spartan! A plastic boat! Lol
