Sometimes he's fast, sometimes he's slow. You'll get your stuff, email him if its taking too long. He has a normal day job on top of the website. Do some searching around once and a while, there are multiple threads about kintec on this site.
New to theUL-1 and boating.

Thank you for the info, I have emailed him on several occasions and he's yet to respond. Very poor communication if you ask me, especially sense I'm a first time customer. What a let down.Comment

I can only speak from my experiences: I usually get items from Kintec real fast but I no longer get return e mails from him for the obvious reason that he is too busy. I have stopped e mailing him altogether, since I do all the research before hand and only buy from him if OSE doesn't have the item. There are different opinions on his service but if I know what to expect then I feel confident buying from Kintec.
I hope you get your issue sorted out, best of luck!

A little update from today, I GPS'ed the boat with the chewed up prop at 40 mph. Then I installed a new stock prop and it went 43 mph. I then installed a GR 40×57 sharpened and balanced prop. Here's the freaky thing, I was heading to the water and noticed the throttle was extremely weak, to the point where I thought I installed dead batteries. I took the boat back to my truck and unplugged the batteries, checked the voltage and both had 8.4 volts. Now I'm scratching my head.
I plugged the batteries back in and tested the throttle again and poof, a large cloud of smoke was billowing from the esc. We stepped back for a second because the smoke was all in our faces. Then we pulled the boat off my tail gate and set it onthe ground about 8 feet away. Then I used a pair of plyers to disconect the batteries. The esc is still smoking and cracking. Once I got the batteries out I started working on removing the esc. After it was removed I threw it about 5 feet away.
Now I could breath, then I thought wtf???. After a couple of minutes I got my temp gauge and got a 210 degress reading. After that I noticed the positive wire came off the esc and it looks like it shorted out on the larger capacitor.
Here are some pic's of the after math.

Nice thread and I've learned quite a bit. Thank you Stelerzman and all those that have been helping him out. :)
I've just got a used UL-1 and ran it for the first time today. Not nearly as fast as yours but I think I need some tuning. Looking foward to watching the thread and learning as much as I can.
Thanks.Comment
