    New To FE - What’s The Diff Aquacraft 1800 KV vs 2030?

    I’m a long time RC boater, but new to electrics. Bought a Revolt 30 to learn. Can someone tell me the difference between the Aquacraft 1800 KV motor and the 2030 KV? The specs look the same. What’s the difference, and does one perform better in the Revolt 30? Thanks for any guidance.

    KV is how many RPM per volt. if you use a 4S battery (14.8 volt)
    the 1800kv motor would turn at 26,640 rpm and the 2030 kv
    motor would turn at 30,044 rpm.

      Thank you! So based on people’s experience, would one motor/prop combination be better?

        Either motor will run good in the Revolt. Octura X442 will work fine. You can go as big as X445 but make run times short till you get some temps.
