[PETEB]

Hace a proboat shockwave "55 running castle 2028 800kv/sworfish x 300 a and 2 4s lipo 5000 mah 20-30c octura x457 prop. Put it the water 1st time and wont get on plane runs very slow.. Tried programing settings for esc on computer and not sure what to set everything at/ or do i just restore to default settings? Need help

I know one thing that makes a big difference is you need to set the timing to auto.

Ok thanks, if im running (2) 4s do i put in under lvc 8s?and what pwm rate?

He probably has them in parallel and not in series. 5000 mA is nowhere near enough for that boat

The instructions say to run in parallel..

run it in series so you're running it on 8S 5000mah. . .4S 10000mah is not enough to push that boat

[PETEB]

So all i have to do is change wiring to series and not parallel, is that why its running slow?

8s isn't enough for that motor. Needs 10s

[photohoward1]

Terry is right. But yes. It will get on plane on 8s. 5000 is not enough though.

you need 10S to turn that motor adequately and preferably 10,000mah or more to get some better run times. 10S will give you roughly under 30,000rpm and 10,000mah for about 3-4 minutes of mix speeds. . .that means you'll have to get a couple of sets of new batteries with at least 50C to get some good results.

Thanks

800Kv run it on 12s. I have a pair of 1200Kv motors that'll be running on 10s. Juice it up man!
