        The castle motors don't cost much more than the leopard anyways

            On 6s I don't think you're not going to get 60mph you're at 17,316 rpm unloaded provided your motor is 100% efficient which it is not. I have run my cat on 6s with 750kv motors and it was flat out boring.

            You're going to want something in the 1000kv range for that boat.

                On 8s, it will haul the mail. The OP stated he would run 6 and 8s. With the 2028, 6s won't cut it.

                    Swordfish 240 2028 10s, then it will haul. Some guys run 8s2p with the motor but hv is your friend. Leopard 56 110 in 780 kv is also an option. All you need is in the store on this site except batteries.
