brushless proboat 9 or strx 9

anybody know a micro rx that will fit the proboat hulls?

I think im going to go with a flysky. They seem small enough

So far Ive ordered the micro brushless motor and turnigy 25a plush esc.
The motor is rated for 3s and is 5300 kv. max 8.5a. I plan to run it on 2s. If im not satisfied then 3s
I ordered the flysky it4 today and plan on using it on everything.
Now just for some lipos and some though on how Im going to install this motor...

Altough Pro-Boat is great, I'd spend the time and money on an STRX-9 and the 430mah lipo from venom. The thing rips and runs for days..
Let me see if I have some vid..

Well of coarse your going to say that. Looks to me like your a worker for them or something lol (loyal fan maybe?) I already have the blackjack 9 and impulse 9 now... And the strx 9 is a scaled down barbwire and I dont want 3 barbwire looking boats lol (already own 2 barbwires)


I have a good feeling about the brushless motor linked above. I guess only time will tell. Cant wait for that shipment from hk!!! I think it will fit the strx 9 also.

Don't run that 5300kv motor on 3s in a boat, @ close to 60,000rpm unloaded things wont last long at all.

for $10 id be fine if it burned up. Even if it just pulled insane for one pull so I can record it and put it on here...
But obviously im not planning on constant 3s running. I doubt the flex or prop could handle it even if it was a lower kv motor on 3s...Plus id have to find a 3s lipo that fits...which i dont really care to do..
