    Yup, 447 may be too big. M445 may be on the top side for you. A 442 is good all round. I have tried the X6 series on mine but it is too much lift and ended up submarining.

        What size motor do you have in her? I run M447's on my pursuit with a 4074 2200kv on 4s. I have run it on light 5s' but should go to a M445 then.
        Detounging will also unload the motor a bit.

          Cause the problem i'm having is that the electronics are getting hot topped out at 46mph but i think it has more to go what do you think about a 440

            You can try the 440, most likely be slower but have great runtime. Electronics being warm can be many things, Too small connectors, too long wires from battery to ESC, water cooling. Can you post an interior pic?

              Just noticed you are in Florida, warm water also does not help and sometimes you have to swap off the temps for speed.

                      If you are just running one pack that can heat things up too due to lack of amperage. 90 all year certainly won't help. The 440 will run just fine.
