I did not want to hijack the P-Lim motor thread. My club has a twice monthly race program. But none of us race outside the club, so we don't know how fast the serious race boats can go. On the other hand, we are not burning up motors or ESCs, just having fun. We keep the monos and cats separate. My Impulse31 is a typical club mono: AQ2030 motor, 80 amp ESC, S/B M445 prop, 2x2S packs, sanded bottom, 30% CG, and is competitive in our group. Speed tops out at 37MPH (Garmin Forerunner 201), which I thought was respectable. Over on the motor thread, I hear people talking about speeds in the 40-50 MPH range. So I can imagine that the motors get cooked. I once cooked one right away just by bumping up the timing.
So, what is a realistic competitive speed, and current draw in P-Lim, and how do you tune for it?
Thanks
