mamba max esc in micro drifter?

[62 bugzilla]

Would it be ok to us a mamba max in a micro drifter with a 6l on 2s 4000 mah in parallel. The boat right now isn't water cooled but I was going to put a rudder with a water pickup in it and at least water cool the motor and possible try to water cool the mamba max or add a fan to it?

I have been using a mamba max in my crackerbox, with one 2cell 4000 mah lipo and a 3500 kv traxxas motor, I put a fan on the esc, and the motor was water cooled. The esc is rated for 100 amps. I would also set timing to the lowest setting. Make sure to start with a small prop, I think the esc is great, though not water proof.

what speeds are you getting on the cracker box? temps?

I think I will try the mamba max with the 6l and see how it does. I'm adding the rudder with the water pickup and will water cool the motor for sure and I'm going to ad a fan to the mamba max and hopefully that will be enough. I'm debating weather to epoxy the mamba max for water proffing or just corrosion x it real good and raise it on a stand in the hull just in case a little water finds it way in. I don't see a water getting into the hull but you never know and at first I will be checking it all the time for temp checks and water. Should I start with a x432 prop? or?
