    quantam on gearbox

    anyone know if the quantam 36-70 would have anough tourque on 16-18 cells to be run throught a gearbox to put out rpms in the high 20K's and still have enough tourque to run atleast a 40mm carbon prop?

    In which boat? The shockwave needs to be geared down.

      not the shockwave...probably a scat cat 32....not really thinking of a build with one yet, just asking some questions to see if it will even have the power to work with a boat.

        actually, would the OM29 work on 18 cells or would that be too heavy?

          In either of those two boats I would personally attempt to overdrive it, IF it was my only motor and I didnt mind if it blew. But first I would run in 1/1 to see how it handles it.
