    That is the leopard 4074 1800kv and 180a Turnigy esc Tim.

    If you are going by yourself and want to get video's,
    I do this with my camcorder, And use velcro straps to hold it to the tx.
    Than I aim it like a side arm gun and just try to stay in frame with the boat.
    It get easier the more try it like that, But I just can not zoom in and drive at the same time yet,
    But you are having enough troubles just trying to drive at the moment.

          And Tim would have his boat dry docked on the beach some where,
          With Tim trying to swim a shore and keep the camcorder dry.
          But it all good fun when you look back at it.

                Too many mods and up grades, I have to true a hull tomorrow, one day I will take a still photo of my fleet. Notice I say STILL?!
                Anyway, I lost my summer because I had to work overseas.

                          Now the caps on the esc were 130f and the motor was 160f.
                          It is running a t600 1100kv outrunner @15* timing with an x450 prop. I lowered the strut from where it was lastnight. Any more hints? Are my temps too high?

                            Get some good video's of it running,
                            Also how long did you run the boat to get those temps ?
                            The temps are pretty good on the motor and caps.
                            How about the connectors and esc board and flex tube temps and cells ?
