    You KV seems very low for a 3s setup, I almost use that kv for my 6s.
    For mono I use the following KV:

    2s = 5000kv
    3s = 3400kv
    4s = 2600kv
    6s = 1600kv

        Your continuous amp draw is rated at 144 amps which for me is a little to close for comfort for my liking with a 180 amp esc, I would run a higher amp esc just to be sure.

          High KV for 6S in a Mono ( Small Prop)
          I use 1850kv on 4S2P in my Mono


          1750kv - I would say 5S would be better


          Unless you are only going to make a couple of speed runs each time out.

            I already own this set up and the test runs going not so good. I can run about half throttle ok but when I try to go full throttle the ESC goes to half power until I bring boat in and reset the esc. It does this stone cold and hot around 160F
            should I suspect ESC is too small or is it possible My lipos are not up to the motor has to draw out of them?

                      The 180 amp will work but does not leave much head room if you over prop the boat. I personally like to have plenty of room so I’m not pushing the esc too hard.

                          What do you have the lvc set @, you could try lowering the lvc or turning the lvc off & see if that makes a difference. With the lvc turned off you must time your run time so as not to over discharge the batteries, it also depends on how good your batteries are with not to much voltage drop under load.

                            Their have also been known problems with some of the 180a esc in the past shutting down like this, it was talked about on this forum a while back even with the lvc turned off they were still shutting down.

                              I am concerned the lipos are not up to par which is tricking the ESC to shut down , like u said
                              they are RGB brand
