    Need some help on finding a relatively cheep esc for my q-sport build.

    Im building a q-sport and the motor i recently bought is a Turnigy 4082-1600kv Its rated at 120amp max but can pull a max watts of over 2600! What escs do you guys recomend me look at? Here's what the sport looks like and yes ive measured it and its perfectly legal with the weird transom rule.

        Watts are the power created by the motor. That esc will have no problem with that setup.

                I run a Sea King 180A ESC in a 40" Sports hydro with a TP Power 4092 1600kv motor. No sweat.
                Props I use are Octura Y547, Prather s225 & s230.
                Not sure if the Turnigy motor has the same efficiency as the TP Power motors so start with the smaller props.
                See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

                    In my Q Sport Hydro I'm running a SF 220 Pro Plus ESC, I know you said inexpensive so my motor choice won't help you. But it's a Neu 1527 1.5D 1500kv
