Hello all.Just joined the site ,im located in NSW Australia .After reading up on Pursuit threads for a few weeks and going round and round in circles on how to set up .Thught id see if my thinking is on the right track here goes..
Have upgraded flex from OSE 4.75mm, Turnigy t180 esc,extra water pick up,will carbon fibre the inner hull for strength.
I will be running in flat water sometimes but also in choppier water in the sea (bay area) im thinking of going leopard 4074 1400kv on 6s which should give me reasonable running temps and runtime with reliability.My thinking was i wont be running flat out all the time in choppy water so the torque may help and will this give me a better runtime compared to say 4074 2000kv on 4s on the same MAH batteries?
Next onto batteries,i see to get the correct CG i may need 2 packs one at each side of motor..
i thought maybe 30c batteries would be ok due to lower amp draw but not sure if i should have 2x6s 5000mah packs in parrallel or 2 x3s 2500mah packs in series.
Also wondering about max battery weight the pursuit can carry ?i know more weight will affect speed but may help in rougher water?
As far a s props go im not sure yet runtime vs speed,heat etc?
Hope this makes sense i have read lots of set ups in different ways but would like to get a bit more runtime than 4 mins out in the sea possibly not on full throttle all the time .
Reading this back think i have confused myself even more now
