Pursuit testing with a 4074 1800kv 180a ecs x447/3 on 6s ?

[lenny]

Hi.
I was going to try my pursuit on 6s just to do some testing and check what temps I get,
With more amps feeding the setup.
I just planned on doing some nice short speed runs and checking things over at 2 minutes runs.

What do you guys think is this a good or bad idea ?

Thank for any input.

What ESC? That sounds like a LOT of prop on 6s. You're talking about 40,000 rpm there......I think even a 2 blade 447 would be too much for that setup.

Esc is seaking v2 with 5 added caps on it,
The setup has be running good on 5s so far with lower temps than on 4s.

I would probably prop down to like an x440 or 438 to start just to be safe, you can always prop up but it can end up being too late to prop down :D.

Lenny i have a meanmachine i ran today for the first time on 6s with a 442 and it was was completely insane i am also running a 180 and approx 1500kv. no need for more imo

[lenny]

Sounds like a plan than.
I will start with a x440/3 and see how things look,
Than if all looks good I will try something a little bigger on it.

No such thing as too much! (unless the hull tosses itself out of the water and lands 50+ feet away from where it started- then you might want to drop cell count a bit :D..)

[lenny]

Well thanks.
I will take that as words of wisdom coming for you,
With your first hand experience and knowledge on that topic.

Yeah, I tend to overpower things.. Turbo 9 second fox body mustang, my 3D planes, my boats, etc. Always been that way.. When hunting for motors for one of my planes years ago, the shop owner said "you don't want that one for that plane- that is like putting a Ferrari engine in a Pinto"- I said "PERFECT!" lol.

Zoom zoom.

I am sorry but this is funny to me and very wet to,
Just say no and do not drink a drive when testing a new boat setup.

Bang bang boom *!***!***!***!**.

If you guys are doing that with a 4074 1800, I am really underworking my 4082 1600... 4s x445 in the pursuit now and 6S x642 in the daytona. However, I went this route to be able to run 8S as well, which is just destructive in the pursuit and very impressive in the Daytona!

6s 1p or 2p?

For 1p an m445 is the best.

Recently i setup one with T180-tenshock czii 2250/5 (2560kv) 4s m445 63+mph

[lenny]

1p most of the time.

I would like to see some video's of yours running with gps speeds please,
Also do you have any pictures that you could post of the boat and setup ?
